The Pantie Raid is "officially" over. We collected 98 packages of panties for a total of 546 pairs. Thanks to everyone who participated. And thanks to those who sent us cash donations. The Family Resource Center, Inc. will be very grateful for the money as well as the undies.


November, 2010 - We are back from Fall Quilt Market and the first project on the burner is these great table runners. You can get 3 different looking runners from one Bali Pop. Now I just have to decide which Bali Pop or Jelly Roll to use!

Patterns will be on the site soon!




Sept., 2010 - I cannot look at this quilt without going "OHMMMMMM". Laura Post made this quilt using the Zen pattern and the Zen Pack. So Serene!




August, 2010 - Monkey Business Bag (don't you just love that name) is the first project for the Groovy Girls Sewing Club that will meet here at the shop monthly starting in September. These would make great gifts for your friends or yourself and there will be lots of great projects to come. Have you signed up yet?


July, 2010 - What little girl wouldn't love one of these dresses? Even us big girls would like one! The dresses are made from Fig Tree's Milk & Cookies Pattern, a little girl's t-shirt, and our very own Kaffe and Friends Printed Cotton Jelly Roll. Make your little girl one today!

July, 2010 - The days are HOT HOT HOT but keep your tootsies COOL with the Classic Flip Flops Pattern or the Bow N Go Flip Flops Pattern. Make a pair to go with every outfit. SO CUTE!

June, 2010 - It is never too soon to begin working on your Christmas list. Robin fell in love with the Northwoods Botanical collection and the Northern Botanical Book when they arrived, so she went in to high gear production. Pictured are some of the projects she has completed from the book. She was able to make the small table topper, the notebook cover, the hostess tote, and both towels from the fat quarter pack with just a small amount of extra light fabric. You can get started on your list too!

We have been named the STAR QUILT SHOP for 2010 by the Fabric Shop Network!
Thanks to everyone - you made this happen!

A class schedule is under development. Let us know what you would like!
