Robert Kaufman Pre-Cuts

I'm a little bit old fashioned, so have only made a few projects with jelly rolls and charm squares.  But my customers LOVE them.  So here's an assortment that just arrived from Robert Kaufman Fabrics.

"Roll-Ups" are their rolls of 2 1/2" wide strips.  There are 40 strips in each package for $24.50.

Charm square packages each contain 42 five-inch squares.  Price is $15.00.

Off Course

"Off Course" is the name of the quilt we'll be making in a class on August 27.  It is designed for 2 1/2" strips but easily could become a scrap buster!


From the book Scrap Basket Strips and Squares by Kim Brackett.


If you can't make it to the class, I have copies of the book available.  $24.99

Winners!

After the three-day-sale was over, I counted the votes for the anniversary challenge quilts.  The theme was "STARS" and entrants were asked to create original quilts < 30" on a side.  Two fabrics were provided and they could add any other fabric that they wanted.



Nine quilters finished their quilts by the deadline and shoppers voted during the sale.  Here are pictures of all the quilts.
