NEW FABRIC

We now have linen! Perfect for home decorating, machine embroidery, and even garments. We will be getting in more color selections over the next couple of months.

 

We have had many requests for pink and purple southwestern fabric, so here you go! Used in traditional clothing, cradleboards and more.

 

 

We covered pretty much every color in the rainbow with these new blenders. With a great textural pattern, any of these will provide extra interest to any of your quilting projects.

Do you have a homemade quilt, afghan or blanket to donate to a child receiving support from the Four Corners Child Advocacy Center? Help us reach our 2nd quarter goal by dropping off your blankets and filling out a donation form on June 25th. Last year the Advocacy Center donated 400 blankets to youth in our area. Not only do they need quilts, they also are able to receive grant money that matches the hours a volunteer spends making the donated project. Grab a muffin and be entered into a drawing for a nice prize. Your volunteer hours mean the world to them. Please call 970-565-8155 for more info.
