I have received the Winter Blessings material, patterns and wool plus Valdani Perle Cotton  threads  from Primitive Gatherings.  This is the candle mat version using the fabrics and wool.  Come and see the large quilt kit at the store.
 
 
I have had requests to have a beginner quilt class.  So here it is.
We will be using the book First-time Quiltmaking .  From cutting the fabric to binding the quilt you will finish a small quilt 42"x 54".  You may choose your own fabric from the selection at the store.   If you buy everything here the class is free.
 
Don't forget that the Pfaff Sewing Machine Sale is still on till June 28th.
