Mariners Compass

4/28/2023

I entered this piece in the Quilt Reflections show and now that the show is over I can post it here. This is the project started on the quilt cruise we did last summer. The mariners compass medallion was done using special rulers and took a bit of work to figure out. To help cement the learning I helped a friend do another one. Truth be told, I like hers better than mine. A little learning goes a long way.

Magnetic Seam Guide

2/18/2023

Not surprising I rely on my 1.4 inch foot for most of my piecing, but sometimes I want a different sized seam. I thought I would give these magnetic seam guides a try.

Be aware, the packaging warns against using with computerized sewing machines and what isn;t computerized these days??

Presencia Thread

2/18/2023

The supply chain for this 100% cotton 3 ply thread from Spain has been disrrupted for a while. We are finally able to begin restocking. This is a 50 wt 500 m spool and even though our cost has gone up we are keeping the price in store at $9.99 per spool - at least for now. In addition to the 4 colours shown we have 4 others on back order.

Tweezers

2/18/2023

A customer was recently asking if we had any tweezers with a curved end. We did not. Now we do.

These are high quality German steel. One is your typical tweezer where you squeeze it to hold on. The other works the opposite way, you squeeze it to open and it closes when you let go. We thought it might be interesting to try out.

Quilter Select Rulers

2/18/2023

As often happens these rulers were highly recommended by some of our community and we have had a chance to bring in a small selection.

The significant feature of these is they are non-slip rulers.

We are going to be closed Thursday, Dec 22.
