Also, the Ric Rac Roundup is on Sunday, and we hope to see you all there! We have been busy the last couple of days starting to prepare for those jobs that can't get done until the day of (tent, quilt show, etc.) but so far I think we are on top of our game. All I ask is for a sunny day that isn't too hot and some happy attendees. Will we see you there?

I was on TV!

Diamond Jubilee

Did you know that the Queen of England has been on the throne for 60 years? This weekend is her Diamond Jubilee celebration and although we are sad not to be in England to help celebrate, Liberty of London & Cath Kidston has brought out some fab product that we can sport to celebrate on this side of the pond.

From Cath Kidston...

And Liberty...

Ric Rac & Fox 4

With every day that passes bringing Ric Rac closer (Sunday!!) my to do list gets longer. How does that seem to work? Oh well, it will get done in the end. Keep an eye out for me tomorrow morning on the Fox 4 morning show, I'll be showing off some of our Ric Rac vendor's goods! I'm excited! but nervous and hope I don't suddenly start spewing curse words for no reason.

City Map Quilts

How amazing are these city map quilts by Haptic Lab? You know I'm drooling over the London one, don't you? And of course, e needs Paris. They do custom as well, it would be fun to get one made of the small town where we grew up. I love the simplicity of the ivory color, it really makes the detailed quilting that much more striking. Although the navy and white great lakes quilt looks fantastic as well...

Ric Rac Roundup: Folded Pigs!

Foldedpigs dinnerware is now available in a couple of new colors: Goldenrod yellow and Olive green!  The new colors look pretty rad paired with the oldies but goodies: Black, Blue, & Ghostie grey.  Also foldedpigs will be debuting a new design in the "Bone Appetit" series: a spinal column.

Happy Memorial Day

Happy Memorial Day everyone! I hope you have the day off and are enjoying the first (unofficial) day of summer! We are closed at the store today. We do have a soiree planned for this afternoon but the rest of the day is devoted to getting ready for the Ric Rac Roundup which is officially in less than a week! Will we see you there?
