Summertime fun!

Lots of new fabrics have started to roll in to the Sampler. Check out these great decorator weight fabrics. This fabric would work for clothing as well as tote bags. You will also find a nice selection of the laminated fabrics everyone is wild about. We have a wonderful new tote bag pattern designed by our Bernina Manager and quilt designer Tracy Trevethan. The pattern works great with the laminated fabrics. We also received a line of brights that would work for great in quilts or clothing for little girls. Make sure you check out the new class list which includes a couple classes on clothing for little girls. Summer may have only begun but Christmas fabrics have started to arrive at the Sampler.
