Too Much Fun!

We don't know about you but getting a package filled with new fabrics is just about the most exciting event in a quilter's day!

That is just what is going on everyday here at QBTB...that brown truck is a girl's best friend! 
This week so far we have 4 new lines in and we can hardly decide which one to play with first...if you get our newsletter you saw this sneak peak already...but just in case here it is again!

 All of these fabrics are just a dream...

Whimsy was already a popular fabric here at QBTB but now that it is in Blue and Yellow ...our store colors...it is a must have for any QBTB fan! 
Daisy Doodle is completely different than our usual fabrics simply for the fact that it has gray in it - we have never carried a contemporary fabric that was quite like this. We all agree here at the store, though, that it is so fun and will be perfect in a variety of quilts...we are thinking an Amy Butler pattern will be just right! ...who knew gray could make you smile so big?

Pretty Bird is almost making us speechless...it is bright and cheerful and happy...and with fabric names like "Bloomies" and "Dancing Flowers" we are expecting a few of you reading this to giggle! (Yes, we did say giggle...one is never too old to be excited over the little things in life!)


Oh, and this one will really get you excited if you love Batiks...
There are now 365 Bali Watercolors...one for every day of the year! Each piece is named like nail polish - you know when you get your pedicure and you paint your toes "Affair in Red Square" red or "Pretty in Pink" pink...well, the Batiks are just the same! From Election Day to Halloween to Earth Day there is a color to match!


Now, what to do with all this fabric?
Here are a few ideas:


1. It is National Literacy Month so don't forget that you buy one book and get one half off here at QBTB until September 11th! This even works online - just enter your coupon book number in the comments and you are good to go. 
2. You can browse our book department and pick out one for yourself and one book for a friend. Why for a friend? Because it is National Friendship Month! 
3. And since it is also National Sewing Month why not invite your girlfriends over for a quilt day?


Don't worry - we will have a fun pattern, book, kit, and some hostess ideas each day this month so you and your quilt friends can enjoy each other's company and find "excuses" for ordering the fabrics that delight you!


Until tomorrow, 
QBTB
