Smitten Flirt

December 17, 2012

flirt-collFlirt by Sandy Gervais

Flirting is saying, “Hey! I like you” without a single word. It’s a coy glance … a wink and a grin … it’s blushing when you say hello. It isn’t a skill; it’s an art. Flirting makes you wonder what else is in store. And there is more in store … much more in Flirt – the latest line of fabric from Moda’s Sandy Gervais. The patterns are shy but deliberate … the colors, subtle but energetic. They’re a sidelong gaze paired with a quick smile. And just like the fine art of flirting, they’re irresistibly playful…in fact, if you wink, they will probably wink right back!

Breast Cancer Awareness

October 19, 2012

Good morning,

Just wanted to drop you a quick note (and pics) to show you the

quilt I made for Breast Cancer Awareness. I was able to make this

quilt in a little over two weeks. I also free motion quilted this on

a long arm machine that I rented. This quilt is going to be sent

to the Susan G. Koman organization in Morristown, NJ and will

be auctioned off at a Black Tie Event on November 2nd.

Wanted to share this with you since I purchased the material from your online shop!

Thank you!!

Janet Peeples

Days of Yore by Sue Marsh

June 22, 2012

We just received the  new collection, Days of Yore (we  love the bright colors).

We contacted Sue to see how she came up with such great colors.

   Thats the easy part!  I go with my favorite colors.  I lovebrights.  I chose the color for Thor based on the story I wrote.  He wound up being blue cause it’s easy to rhyme ;).   I choose a few main colors (purple, hot pink, lime green, turquoise.)  I am limited to the number of colors I can use because of the screen printing process, so the rest of the 10 colors are chosen to go compliment the main colors.

  • We have included a little more info about Sue that we thought you might be interested in.
  • If you have any favorite childhood memories?

   We were big campers when I was a kid.  I still love to camp, only now I do it in a cabin with a microwave and hot shower!

  • When did you start quilting?

    I finished my first quilt about the same time I graduated high school, but my addiction came when I bought my first Quilt In A Day book.  I was seriously hooked.

  • Do you have pet?

   “A” pet??? How can you have just one? 😉  I have six cats and a husband.

  • Do you have a favorite quilting notion?

Of course the rotary cutter and mats almost don’t count anymore as they are must haves.  Outside of that, I love my specialty rulers from Creative Grids.
