NEW! Family Tree Quilt Fabric Panel

They have arrived!

We are one of the very first to get this simply BEAUTIFUL quilt panel and it's something that Bev has wanted to get her hands on for a long time!!! So cool! This is a Family Tree Quilt PANEL from a bolt that we got through Benartex. Note: this is NOT a kit!! The image shown here is not what is on the panel but rather a suggestion for assembling.

There are two blank banners and one banner that says "Our Family Tree" and 21 ovals for personalizing. You can use an embroidery type sewing machine or Micron Pigma pens (or equivalent) for your own names. To personalize, you can print out your names on a word processing program (to the size they fit the ovals) and put the printed type image behind the oval and then trace using a light box or a window (for backlighting). Instructions come on the panel to guide you through this. Measurements: The TREE image is 24" wide x 24" tall. Each oval is 3-1/2" wide x 1-1/2" tall.

Get 'em while they are HOT!!! These are sweet!

NEW! Tree of Life Quilt Pattern

I finally found one of my favorite patterns for us, the Tree of Life. This pattern is designed to make a 57" wall hanging or lap quilt. The Tree of Life is a classic block which looks striking set in a medallion of pierced borders. This quilt has only one template required; the rest of the pieces can be rotary cut. With careful placement of light and dark values, and creative use of small, medium and large scale prints, you will make a lovely quilt.
