One step forward, two steps back...
Apparently we were a bit optimistic in our last issue. While it is spring on the calendar, we are still getting snow and cold weather in some corners of Vermont. Mother's Day was not rainy here, but it was chilly. So the flowers and veggies you got over the weekend can't quite go in the ground yet. We wait...
We are moving forward in the shop, though. We straighten bolts, fill up fat quarter bins, create kits, and hang new store samples. At the moment, this year's holiday fabric is hidden away, but we'll be bringing it out onto the shop floor soon - hopefully all the snow will be a memory by then! Stop in and see what's new, whether it's fabric, books or notions. We're always trying to find new things for you to be excited about.
Please remember that if you're taking classes at the Vermont Quilt Festival this year and you need specific items for your classes, we may be able to order them for you. Just call, email, or stop in soon. We can often get them ahead of time, and then you can be ready for your class before it begins.

A few issues ago, we told you about the great magazines we've been getting from France:
Quiltmania,
Simply Moderne, and
Simply Vintage. Maybe you were interested, but you thought they were a bit pricey to just try one out. We'll let you in on a little secret: if these mags are still in the shop after about six months, we slash their original price! So stop in and pick one up - they're great fun to read, and there is some wonderful photography - at a great deal.
