I've owned my quilt shop since 1990, specializing in antique reproduction fabrics. Made my first quilt in 1976 which greatly reduced my sewing of clothing! Would like to find more time to SEW.......maybe when I retire? Am married to a farmer, have 3 children and 4 grandchildren who are the light of my life!!! And now there are 3 great-grandchildren and another due in January 2019!

New Jo Morton fabrics!
In addition to Jo's new "Sweet Emilie" and "Elizabethtown", more new fabrics are in the works! A line of just Reds for this summer I think! Love that Toile!! And then in late fall, there's more! "Crimson Bouquet", a red/green line with lots of cheddar and yellow!!
I. Love. That. Fabric. I am saving now for yards and yards of Crimson Bouquet. I wonder if I can get myself enough nickles for a bolt of each. The reds are a must-have also.
Wow, I must check that out!!!! They are a must-have for my shop also. Red/white (or cream) fabrics are great all year round, dont you think? They are lovely in the summer and great for christmas projects too.
