Dear Jenifer,
OK, so what
happened to January?! I know I wasted a bit
of time with the flu, but the rest was so
crammed with quilting fun that it "flew" as
well! We spent the last weekend of the month
sharing some of the vintage sewing machines
in our collection at the Heinz History
Center. What a beautiful setting and such
gracious hosts! We will have to encourage
them to host a similar event next winter -
the brightly lit guild quilts were like a bit
of sunshine during this cold and damp season!
Hope you are
warm and cozy - with a project to keep you
smiling!

| Jocelyn Collection |
 |
|
The shop is
beginning to look like spring - on the inside
that is! The new Jocelyn collection from Moda
showcases glorious flowers in bright pink,
yellow, green and blue. It's not a terribly
large group, but each piece could be fabulous
focus fabric. Small blooms surround larger
sunflowers and mums - a great way to start a
garden while the snow is still flying! $8.99
per yard, charm stack $5.00

| Block of the Month Show and Tell |
 |
|
Don't forget to
let us know if you will be attending the
Block of the Month Show and Tell, February
10th. We can't wait to see your finished
pieces, (and neither can your quilting
pals!). We'll have a special little gift for
everyone who shares one of their Quilters
Corner 2007 Block of the Month projects.

| New Jo Morton Fabrics! |
 |
|
Jo Morton's new
Jamestown fabric line is
fabulous. They didn't all arrive in the same
shipment - but it has been kind of fun to
receive bolt after bolt over the last couple
weeks - like special presents! You will
recognize her deep rich colors and
traditional print style. I love the piece
that looks like it has a twisted ribbon
laying on a textured ground - it is a bit
larger in scale and would be wonderful as the
center or setting in some of Jo's patterns.
We're planning to use them in Jo's next club
projects. The #7 series starts in March (and
will even be available on line).

Luscious
Little Block- Settings and Border. I have
finally set and bordered all 25 blocks in our
Luscious Little Block series. With block
frames, setting squares, sashing and borders
the quilt measures 61" x 61". I hope you have
enjoyed the blocks - I had great fun
stitching each and every one!
Each online
pattern is available as an Adobe PDF.
We also have archived all of the prior
releases on
Luscious Little Block Page so you will
not miss a
pattern! Once the file is open in a browser
window
you can print or save a copy to your hard drive.
(Make sure you have the latest version of Adobe
Acrobat for best results.)
