Hello,

 Summer has flown by as it usually does. We are having cooler nights and days. That must mean it is time to get fall, winter and holiday projects lined up and ready for completion.

 We will be open for Labor Day. Come in and check out our new fabrics. We have grown quite a bit, thanks to all of you.

 Mention our newsletter or blog and receive a 15% discount on your fabric purchase this month. Please be honest and just use it one time. (Minimum 1 yd. cuts )

Thank you,

Sandi & Staff
