What's New @ Creekside Quilting?

  This Andover line by Laundry Basket Quilts (Edyta Sitar) Sweet Sixteen arrived a little late for Valentine's Day quilts, but as Sandy says, "love is year around!"  View the 26 bolt fabric line of Andover's Sweet Sixteen HERE

  The Great British Bake Off and Bridgerton are popular TV shows right now....and Notting Hill is our new British fabric line from Riley Blake!  Bring a little Brittan home today with this lovely fabric line!  Yep, it has pictures of London's most favorite sights AND yes, those are Union Jack flags!  View the 16 bolt line HERE

  This new Moda line from Deb Strain is called America the Beautiful and makes a GREAT addition to our Patriotic fabircs!  It will make a GREAT addition to your Patriotic quilts as well!!  It has blenders, flags, stars, wordng, and basic red, white and blues.  View the 24 bolt collection HERE

  Starry Night is a new Sew Kind of Wonderful Pattern to go with their Sew Kind of Wonderful Rulers!  Diane made up a sample of this pattern for the store, and it is just beautful!  Come in a check it out!  Always wanted to try a curve ruler, but just not sure?  Well, Diane says, "after you practice cutting with it a few times, it really is easy"!  And Debby says "the Wonder Curve Ruler has markings making it easier to cut than the Quick Curve Ruler"!  Purchase the pattern HERE and the ruler HERE

  We have a lot of new quilters joining our community of friends, and this book is a very good book explaining how to make a quilt.  You can purchase the book HERE
  Here is another excellent book for machine quilting beginners!  Check it out HERE

It's NOT too late to join us this year for the Moda My Favorite Color is BOM Receive all fabric, binding, pattern, and group participation for $125!  Call us today to register or sign up HERE

  Join us for My Favorite Color is Moda BOM Saturday, March 6th at 10:30 am and meeting every month through November!  This group will meet and discuss the blocks of the month, go through tips and tricks to the patterns and of course show and tell!  Karen T. and Julia will be leading this group and sewing right along with everyone!

There are 31 blocks and they are all traditionally pieced. The block sizes vary from 9" to 36" which results in a nice sized quilt at 81"x99" 

We have FOUR different color options! There is: 

 Coastal Cool reminds me of seaglass and tranquil white sand beaches. The colours are beiges and blues with a gorgeous periwinkle. 
 Primrose Garden is pinks and greens and yellow! Definitely a garden.
  Tropical Getaway is a riot of colour. Purple, pink, green, blue. Even a coral-orange. 
 Cookie Tin is Christmas, but not just green and red. There is a hint of green blue that really makes this colorway pop. I think Cookie Tin may be my favourite. 

If you want to participate using your own stash, you're welcome to do that as well.

***PLEASE NOTE before you come to class, make sure your sewing machine is in good working condition and has all the necessary supplies you will need to run the sewing machine.
