A Few of My Favorite Notions

This is a sampling of the new notions that were shown at Quilt Market. These Tulip Pin Cushions from Tacony have suction cups so they can be attached right to your sewing machine!

These cute little fans from Graphic Impressions are rechargeable with the included USB – and are perfect for those hot flash moments or cooling off at the beach!

These pendent thread cutters from Bohin are cute AND practical – approved for flying.

Seam Guides with Style

These magnetic seam guides by Tacony are functional as well as charming! They come in a 24 piece assortment pack – eight each of the tape measure, sewing machine and zipper.

The strong magnet holds it in place so there is no slipping once it is placed.

Because of the magnet, they are not recommended for computerized machines.

This is the perfect counter display and is due to arrive next month – in plenty of time for shop hops. At just $2.00 retail, who could resist?

Register Sales That Sell Themselves

It’s that time of year again.  Time to take a fresh look at the area around your register.  Every person that enters your shop will be standing there at some point, so why not make this a pleasant experience?

These three additions are perfect gifts – even if you are treating yourself!  This counter display of Bonnie Hunter playing cards contains 12 decks that retail for around $5.00.

The Happy Quilter Word Search includes 72 puzzles with terms that every quilter will love.  Who would have thought a puzzle book would crack the top 50 books?  Could this be the next coloring book craze???
