ForeverMore, by Pam Buda, will be a Summer Block of the Month.
Many of you have seen the finished top hanging in the shop. Instructions are now finished, and we've begun cutting kits. If you've signed up, be on the lookout for an introductory email!
Join us if you want a challenge - this project is not for beginners! Since some of the smaller blocks finish at 3 inches, we recommend that you only take on this project if you're a confident intermediate quilter.

Please email us at staff@yankeepridequilts.com, or give us a call at 802/872-9300 if you're interested in signing up for this gorgeous project! For those customers living far away, we're happy to mail each month's package to you for a small additional fee.

UPDATE: Emma has begun! Thank you so much for your patience. The fabric arrived, and Marti got busy cutting kits right away. There may be a spot or two left, so if you'd like to join us, call the shop as soon as possible. Space is limited!
NEW: The shop sample is complete and hanging near the front door - stop in and see this fabulous quilt!
Judy believes that confident beginners will be able to tackle this quilt. If you've taken Ruth's Machine Piecing class, or if you're a veteran of our Mystery Quilts, you should be able to construct this quilt with little problem.

Please welcome Trista to the shop! In addition to working with customers and playing with fabric, Trista will be working on increasing our social media presence, and getting us further out into the cyber world.
She is a fourth generation sewist who made her first quilt more than 25 years ago. Many of you may recognize her from the Vermont Quilt Festival, as she has been involved with VQF for the past several years.
Trista lives in Fletcher with her husband and a menagerie of indoor and outdoor animals, and sews on her trusty Bernina. Make sure to say hi when you see her!

Holiday Wishes
by Hoffman
|
The Hoffman sparkle has returned! We received some of their classic holiday re-prints, too, but these are brand-new! Gold metallic is in this year, as all of these prints (photo at right) will show you. Huge poinsettias, and some sparkly coordinates will help you decorate your home. |

Holiday Wishes (part 2)
by Hoffman
|
A few of Hoffman's holiday prints arrived with silver sparkle. The ornament fabric (center in photo) is just stunning! Make gift bags or wine bags, or just use it to wrap your gifts. The coordinating reds (top and bottom) are really lovely.

Things are Looking Up
from Kim Schaefer
by Andover Fabrics
|
It's always great to have fun, silly holiday fabrics. Such as Christmas lights with faces on them (right in photo). What child wouldn't love that? Any of these prints will add whimsy to your project, and the wintry blues mean you can leave your quilt out for the whole season if you like! |

Sparkle & Fade
by Hoffman
|
This group is a little less Christmas, a little more winter. The sparkle is silver, and black is not a favorite with everyone, so you'll want to choose to use these carefully. The prints are quite striking, though, aren't they? The stripe (bottom in photo) makes a cool binding. We especially like the silver and gray star print (above the stripe) as a coordinate. You really need an up-close look to appreciate them! |
|
This advent calendar shows you all the fun of a winter festival. People are bundled up and enjoying food and activities, including skating on a pond. Everything takes place around the giant village Christmas tree. |

Festive Foliage
by Makower
|
All four of these prints are great 'go-withs' - fabrics that will play well with others you're working with. They have smaller motifs, and don't need to be the star of the show. They're wonderful for napkins, runners, stockings, and tree skirts. They're also fun to have in your holiday stash. You just never know when you might need one to give your project a little boost. |
|
A fun, kid-based advent calendar. Snowmen watch over dozens of cute kitties! Instructions for making the calendar are printed right on the panel, so it's a fairly quick and easy project. |

Merry Christmas
by Makower
|
There's a Santa advent calendar every year - this one is bright and cheerful, with some fun coordinates to go with it (photo below). Whether you want reindeer, snowmen, birds, or more Santa, it's all here. |
|
We love to see the new Scandi designs each year. There's something so attractive about the color combination of red and white. This year is no exception, with beautiful embellished motifs on the calendar, and simple coordinate fabrics for borders and other projects. |

Thank you for being our customer, for supporting us, and thank you for continuing to believe in shopping local.
Judy, Rae, Marti, Suzanne, Cindy, Wendy, Kathy, Ruth, Trista, Marjan, and Kay
