January mystery quilt

 Another fabric mystery has been solved at Morganson's.  The January mystery quilt turned out beautifully!

The photo above includes the optional border.

We need to let you know that the shop will be closed next week (February 1-5) for the annual Winter Quilt Retreat near Bryce Canyon at which we vend and teach classes.  We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Because we will be closed for the retreat, we will not be hosting a $5.95 First Friday sale in February. Thanks for your understanding.  

We will post a photo of the February mystery fabrics as soon as we find the fabric so please check back.

We are so grateful for your support and friendship.

Jan. mystery fabrics/First Friday reminder

We will be using a layer cake from the Poppy and Posey collection by Riley Blake Designs for the January mystery quilt.

Please call us at 801-465-9133 to reserve your spot.  

Also-tomorrow (Jan 7th) is the first Friday of the month.  

Because of the rising cost of fabric we will offer fabric for $5.95 per yard instead of $5.55.  

It's still a steal of a deal so come and get some!

December mystery quilt(s)

 

We hope you had a wonderful Christmas.  We were grateful to take a few days off and be with family.

December's mystery kits are ready to be picked up.  We opted for a project that can be completed fairly quickly.  I think both versions turned out great.

Here is a photo of the quilt using the Tea with Bea collection.

And here is one from the "At the Lake" collection.

As usual, we have some coordinating binding and backing fabrics available while they last.

With the busyness of the holidays, we have not yet selected fabric for the January mystery quilt so keep and eye on the blog site.  We will post photos as soon as we are able.

We will be closed this Friday and Saturday as we celebrate the arrival of the New Year.

We are so grateful for your support and friendship and wish you the very best in 2022 and beyond!
