Cuddle Up with this Bear!

This past Saturday was the 5th Saturday of the month and that means a Challenge!

On the 5th Saturday of the month, customers can purchase a "mystery" package that has ingredients to create a challenge project. For the month of July, it included navy fabric, maroon fabric and a coral print. Each person can make ANYTHING that they desire. The completed projects are turned in on the next 5th Saturday and are on display in the store for customers to vote for their favorite. September had 8 entries for the challenge and they are spectacular! The talent each person has never ceases to amaze me!

The next 5th Saturday is December 30, we have mystery packages for sale at the store now ($12.99, while supplies last) and they aren't due for 3 months! Stop in the store to admire the projects and vote for your favorite. Then, pick up a mystery bag and join the fun. You might win a gift certificate to the store!

Big Sky

by Annie Brady

for Moda Fabrics

Annie Brady's first collection for Moda Fabrics is a journey into the Montana wild. Out past the urban cityscape, the sky opens up and seems to go on forever. There are mountains

and forests, deep valleys and rivers... it's a place where animals

and nature reign. There are no cars or people, but it's far from quiet as the forest has its own kind of language. Listen closely to the sounds, of bear, moose and buffalo, of birdsong and the wind in the trees, The rush of the water and the sound of leaves and stone underfoot... breathe it all in. This is Big Sky Country. ~Annie Brady
