It's All About the Bags!

About once a year, we like to hit the "refresh" on our displays of bags and totes and purses.  Right now, we have 30+ new samples of these items all on display.  Because we know how nice it is to see and open and feel what these look like before you invest the time and money into making your own.  I'm pretty sure you will find something that you like!

Several of these bags are on loan from some generous designers!  We have borrowed from Stitchin' Sisters, Around the Bobbin and by Annie just for more added fun!  We have patterns, hardware, interfacings, stabilizers, zippers and a wee bit o' fabric, too!  Don't miss this chance to pick out a new project for yourself or someone who needs a gift!

This slideshow may take a few seconds to load, but it's worth the wait!  In addition to the bag display, you can also see our beautiful window boxes (thank you Tammy), the large petunia baskets hanging from the light posts (thank you city of White Bear Lake), the cars on our streets and our neighboring businesses.  It's a great place to be!

Dinnertime Delight

Jeanne has used our Quilt MN fabric to make the perfect dinnertime accent.  The Easy Sew and Flip Placemat from Patterns By Annie is already a great sewing idea, but becomes even better when combined with Soft and Stable in place of the usual batting.  Soft and Stable is a thin, soft foam layered between lightweight fabric, and is like the "headliner" material used in the ceiling of your car.  Who knew?!

Jeanne put this together in no time at all, and finished of the quilt-as-you-go technique with straight-line crosshatching.  Use your walking foot and seam guide to make this look neat and professional.
