March Mystery

First of all - we have discovered that there wasn't quite enough fabric to finish the arrows in last month's quilt kits.  So if you did last month's quilt please stop by the shop and pick up the fabric you will need to finish the quilt.  So sorry for the inconvenience.

Here is a photo of the March mystery quilt which you can pick up today (March 26).  We were really happy with the way this one turned out.  Hope you love it too.

























April fabrics are shown below.  It's sure to be another cute one.









Call us at 801-465-9133 to reserve your kit.

Happy Quilting!

Our new cutie

We were so happy to welcome the newest member to our family on New Years day. We are thrilled!

Of course, this grandma has to make sure he has his own quilt to keep him comfortable and cozy.

2019 February Mystery Quilt

 Please notice a correction to the pattern:

We mislabeled a couple of lines.  Toward the end of the cutting list it should read:


2) 7” squares (feathers on arrow shaft)
4) 3 7/8” squares (arrow points)

not -

2) 7” squares (arrow points)
4) 3 7/8” squares (feathers on arrow shaft)
 



Here is the quilt!
















The quilt turned out really fun!  (The photo doesn't do it justice.)

We will be using the cute fabrics pictured below for the March mystery quilt.











Call us at 801-465-9133 to reserve your kit!

 This Friday (March 1) is $5.55 First Friday.  We have added some great fabrics to the sale shelves.  Come and check them out.
