Barn Quilts Take Center Stage

These absorbent stone coasters are available in a display rack that includes all twelve designs as well as in individual packs.

Each coaster is a little over three inches in size. The design below shows the detail incorporated into each block.

At a retail of just $5.00, these make great gifts and are the perfect register display. These items will be arriving soon – in time for shop hops and vacation travelers.

Jigsaw Weather

It is that time of year when we start thinking about family activities indoors – and we have just the answer! Puzzles!

This 1,000 piece quilt puzzle is one way of “piecing” a quilt – or several – in an evening!

Or take a ride in the country when they are airing the quilts:

Or reproduce the sewing room of your dreams….

Visit our website to see the entire collection of Sunsout puzzles. Why not buy a variety and set up a display?

Mugs – the Perfect Gift

Several unique mugs will be arriving this month that will make you smile.

The scissor mugs from Tacony come in red or blue and will be a great addition to your register display.

These mugs by Quilt Happy are great for knitters but would make quilters who work with wool smile as well.

Or choose these mugs that show a potpourri of a few of our favorite things!

Display them filled with gift possibilities – candy; notions; fabrics; patterns – you get the idea.

A Novel Idea for a Book Club

Carol Dean Jones has written a series of books covering all of our favorite topics: quilts; friendships; and even a love interest. Sixty-eight year old Sarah Miller moves into a retirement community and finds herself in the midst of crimes to solve.

I have listed the books in order of publication:

These books are due to arrive the end of the summer and would be a great Christmas gift! Or why not start a book club at your shop and explore the quilt patterns and techniques in each book each month???
