Downton Abbey fabrics going fast

A very big THANK YOU to Brooke Walker for featuring our Downton Abbey Fabrics Bundles on her daily TV show Studio 5 on Utah's KSL 5!

Here is the link to the TV segment of Brooke's TV Show STUDIO 5   

Here is a better peak at the actual fabrics from the Downton Abbey Collection.  They are going fast!
 Sandra has arranged them into gorgeous character bundles.  Above is the Dowager Countess Collection.

Lady Mary's Collection.  Note we are missing the dark blue Sapphire Plume (just like the burgundy 3rd from the bottom) it will ship to us in December!.  We have a few kits and bundles just waiting for this Sapphire Plume.

 Lady Edith's Collection looks just like her.  Soft orange, powder blue, and soft green.  The main print is large floral cameos.

 And of course Lady Sybil's collection is reminiscent of her soft blues - with a touch of modern flair!  Beautiful soft bouquets and tapestries.  My favorite is Sybil's Tulle in Blue - 2nd fabric from the top.

Only 1 Left!  Fun bag with the Downton Abbey Complete Fat Quarter Collection.  This will be ready to mail as soon as we receive Lady Mary's Sapphire Plume.  If you want this for a Christmas gift, we can mail it out to you now and then mail you the fat quarter of Sapphire Plume when it arrives (sorry service only for US customers).  Just send us an email saying "ship now" and we will!


We have several quilt kits available as well.  All these fabrics are available in our SistersandQuilters.com shop only. 

Happy Sewing!

New Quilt Kits!



First up is a perfect star table topper for the holidays! Or wall hanging! 

 Sandra created this gorgeous table topper.  She paired the Shining Star Quilt Pattern designed by Calico Carriage Quilt Designs with the Midwinter Reds Tan fabric collection by Minick & Simpson. You will love this creamy tan palette.
 Half square triangle units are sewn into sections and the sections then sewn to form the center of the quilt. NO DIAMONDS OR "Y" SEAMS.  You see the half-square triangles if you look closely.
Leisha Farnsworth's feathered quilting in the star and row quilting in the background  really glams up the star and the fabrics.  Awesome quilting.  The quilting on the 1st stop border looks like braiding.   You can get these kits (all fabrics included - even backing) HERE

And maybe you would like to make an Americana one for the summer....

This one is made with primarily Old Glory Gatherings fabrics.   A perfect table topper for 4th of July!

We are HAPPY to announce that we now carry Jiggybars

 

Here is the story behind how this all began...

 

Beautiful Jocie 

 
Jocie_forwebsite

This email address is being protected from spaIn memory of...

A beautiful spring day in March 2008 tragically changed our family forever.  Our adorable 15 year old daughter Jocie heartbreakingly passed away in a skiing accident in Northern Utah.  Only those that have experienced the dark mourning that comes with losing a child can understand the helpless, senseless, haunting feeling that follows you like a dark shadow.  I had this desire, an unquenchable thirst to somehow memorialize our beloved daughter. During this initial phase of mourning, for an unknown reason I became attracted to and started keeping bees. Observing a thriving, living, active colony of bees was both therapeutic and healing. I honestly believe the bees saved me.
In addition to delicious honey, my first harvest also produced a considerable amount of pure golden beeswax which intrigued me. Jocie who was well known by her nickname” Jiggy”, constantly carried a tube of lip balm with her.  And just like that…jiggystick was created!

Memorial Jiggysticks

Along with producing great lip balm, part of the jiggystick vision is to memorialize young children that have passed away too soon...providing some small level of comfort for mourning friends and family.  Periodically we will produce and donate a special run of jiggystick dedicated to the memory of a lost loved one. This typically occurs on a marked memorial date like birthdays, anniversaries, etc.  Jiggystick is honored to have been a part of “Huckleberry Hike” dedicated to Parker Bradford and “Maddie Mango” dedicated to Madison Kimball.

If you would like to nominate someone for a memorial jiggystick production run please send an email to info@jiggystick.com This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .

Save the bees...

As lovers of all things bees, Jiggystick will donate a portion of our annual profits towards colony collapse disorder research and placing beehives in 3rd world countries.
