Oh…my…gosh!  The new fabrics (including Christmas) have been rolling in, and they are, quite simply, WONDERFUL!  Let's see, what are the highlights?

	Bali Pops are FINALLY in!  Get these pre-cut 2 ½” BATIK strips from Hoffman Fabrics.  We have several sets to choose from:  Sherbet, Mint Chip, Mulberry, Butterscotch, Strawberry Fields, and Kiwiberry, and the colors are just as luscious as their names! 40 strips will get you started on a wonderful project—check the Hoffman Fabrics website for some free patterns!

We have kits of the very first Moda Collection for a Cause— Heritage !  Moda spared no expense on this beautiful collection of browns, tans, golds, teals, and rose.  The collection has a beautiful antique look with its chintz finish. We have the fabric as well as the kit, but when it's gone, it's gone, as Moda says they will not be re-printing! (I also made up some kits for Jan Patek's Star Patch quilt made with these fabrics, and it has been plenty popular, too.)

Benartex and Nancy Halvorsen have teamed up again with Cider Mill Road .  I have the red and beige colorway of the collection as well as the new book, hot off the press and released at Fall Market.  I will be starting soon on the pillow that says “Dilly Dallying and Lollygagging Are Allowed!”  Wonder why?

Dear Jane .  For those of you who are Janiacs or Janiac-wanna-bees, we have just the thing— Windham's new Dear Jane Fabric!  I brought several pieces back from Fabriganza in Chicago a few weeks ago to see what you think.  Among the fabrics is a Dear Jane cheater cloth, and wouldn't you know—it's flying out of here?!  Amy made up a wonderful bag using the cheater cloth, and we are loving it!  I just ordered the patterns, and they were to be shipped from Iowa this morning, so stop down and see what all the fuss is about!

Deb Strain has released her second set of coffee-themed fabrics for Moda.  It's Bistro , again in the blacks, rusts, and beiges that were so popular in her first collection. There is a coffee-themed panel as well as several graphic co-ordinates.

    Quiltmaker's Quilting Motifs CDs are here!  Put them in your computer and adjust the sizes exactly to your quilt and then print out.  Each of the three different CD's contains hundred of designs, making these a real bargain! An invaluable resource for those who like to quilt their own quilts.
