Have you started all your holiday prep?

I haven’t. Oops-well, I guess I do have some Thanksgiving decorations ready to go!

Thanksgiving- a holiday to celebrate what we are thankful for. 

What am I thankful for? Well, this Thanksgiving, my daughter and her fiancé are coming to celebrate with us! I can’t wait.

They are so cute.

I am thankful that my boys are working and happy; I would love to have them here as well, but I must be glad one of my kiddies is coming to see us!

 

 

Then there are all the December holidays- we celebrate Christmas and we have to get going and do our shopping, wrapping, etc…as we have to ship presents to Scotland and Florida. 

How about you? Have you started your shopping yet?

 

Well, we want to help. We know that we all start the New Year with promises to ourselves that we will start earlier, work on projects all year for the holidays… blah, blah, blah. And maybe, you are better than we are and actually did that! If not, we have a plan to help.

 

We are opening an Etsy shop to help you with your holiday shopping!

DSC08847We will have kits, fabric, and completed projects that you can use for your holiday gift giving!!!

How cool is that?

Have a quilt friend who is always making for others and never keeps a quilt for herself? We have some fun quilts that we made that would be great for your friend. Check that off your list!

Need to make a holiday decoration for yourself, for a friend or as a hostess gift? Don’t have time to shop for fabric? We have some kits so you don’t have to shop for fabrics or the pattern.We even have some where the top is already made for you- just add some batting, backing, quilt and bind. Done!

Row House table runner- and yes, we will have one just like this one for sale!

We even have some completed smaller projects like table runners and placemats and stockings! Really, all done for you! All you have to do is wrap the gift!

 

The shop will open after the blog tour next week.

So check back to see the opening date. Then,  grab a cup of coffee, settle back and shop! You don’t want to miss these great bargains. Our goal is to help you!

 

happy quilting,

Kate

p.s. Don’t forget the blog tour next week- should be fun!joinforblogtour8_200
