West Indies game on 2 Winners

I always like to up the chance of winning makes for a better game.  So here it is two fat quarter piles with your name on it.  All I want to know is your favorite color from the collection with a hash mark in front to enter..so like this #green . Truth be told I hope it drives more traffic to the site but haven’t got a clue..so long as it looks like I know what I’m doing..So Madeline cut these out and I folded them.  What I’m trying to say they are fatquarters Sis Boom style.  Not necessarily perfect. I went to see how to fold a fat quarter and figured that could take a whole day.  Please don’t judge the quality just have fun with the quantity.  Lets just say enough to create a beautiful quilt top!!!  Damage Control at it’s best.  Winners posted Friday evening It’s a quick one.

If you haven’t already, you’re definitely going to want to check out our newest patterns, the Rebecca and Shannon shift dresses!!! We are LOVING this Honey Child / Queen Street combo paired by the fabulous Carla Crim of Scientific Seamstress!! What would your shift dress combo be??

Hurry up and whip yours up before the summer is over!! (Pssst – You can also wear it into fall with some cute tights and a cardigan).

Killing Me Softly

Monique is Unique!! Look at these patchworks.  They are amazingly vibrant and happy.  This girl is probably one of the happiest I know.  Monique shares her work and really loves to highlight the designers in each fabric and we really appreciate the holla back. She is constantly filling our flickr group with incredible patchworks.  Striking in a modern or traditional setting these are the most popular quilts on the net.  Visit her etsy shop and enjoy the visual feast. She offers crib bedding, diaper bags and it can all be custom for your own unique signature.. Have at it ladies and gents.

The Tulle Skirt with Glitter ribbons

Don’t wait for the Holidays grab your copy of Girls World and make the wonderful tulle skirt.  In the book we have made it to work over the green dress but imagine putting felt on the underside like we did with the one below..You can’t be stopped..you’ll make these and have the best time making them for everyone on your Holiday list.

Thanks for noticing

We do always try to do something fun when we open our doors locally , there;s nothing more annoying than getting a newsletter than having it not pertain to you.  We appreciate all your comments and do try to give to several winners and believe me if USPS was free I’d give each one of you something.  At the end of every month my husband says your shipping charges are crazy!!! …oh well.  We just appreciate each and everyone of you so much.  You also should know we pluck random winners from here and there just to holla back for all the great stuff you do for us. Check this out..Kristen Dellasega from Three in My Nest is having a raffle because she believes in Girls World so much and wants to share it with her followers..How cool is that?  We can never thank you enough..all of you who have become our friends over the years.  You all are so generous!!

A peek Inside

Get Girls World Get Inspired. It’s that simple!!!!  A patchwork memo board!!  We have never seen one before now and Inside Girls World are the instructions to make this beauty!!  The girls in the bedroom are looking so dreamy but it’s the wonderful bedding and richness of the Sis Boom Fabrics that create this happy place.  Show us your Girls World, we know you can make it happen. Just start, don’t be intimidated , they are simple projects that can make a pretty difference.  The most important thing is that you try!! I also want to say that it is incredible value because if you were to purchase four patterns it would be $40.00 dollars off the bat and on amazon they are selling for about $22.00 with shipping.  The point I’m making is you will not regret the price.  Also stock up for Christmas because crafters and sewers alike are discovering the projects in this book.  Oh and if you are teaching Girls World let us know we’ll send Living a Girls World badges. Girl Scouts, Church Groups, Community Organizations, Sewing groups we are here to support you….there’s a buzz and we can never thank you enough. all the best, me.

Don’t forget our blog has a list of places that sell our fabrics please go there first for best selection.
