2008:
Accent of the Month: Due to popular demand, these cute, quick & easy 5" x 7" slip-over-a-frame accent quilts will continue!!!! These are perfect for the desk at work, a living room mantle, a dining room hutch or even a bedroom bureau - any place you'd like to get a bit of quilting. These are not called miniatures because we're trying to keep the designs larger, simpler, and fun to make. You'll want to make one for yourself and one for a gift. Extras are made each month but have been selling out. Reserve yours by signing up for a kit each month. Prices range from $8-$10.
Calendar Girls Debby Kratovil designed the Block A Day Calendar and is now designing a Quilt A Month for those who own the calendar! Join the Calendar Girls—FREE—to receive the monthly patterns and get special pricing on our kits to make the quilts. Some are wallhangings, some are larger. You must have purchased Debby’s Block A Day Calendar. Sign up now and let us know if you need the calendar!

Quilt For A Cure Day was September 27, 2008. We raised over $7,000!!!!!! THANK YOU to everyone who participated. We still have some quilting posters in the store that were donated and we're selling them for $5 each and we're still looking for people to make some Fabric Folders (instead of the Mastectomy Pillows in the list of 40 Fun Things). The directions can be found here.
