Happy Thanksgiving

So much to tell you about all that is new at Ivy Thimble!
We are back from Quilt Market and have begun unpacking all that we brought back
Some of the goodies we couldn’t bring back…they’re arriving DAILY!
We have many new books to share with you…
some using the pre-cut fabrics…some using the large prints…
some making those adorable small quilts that are fun to make after a large project.

We came back with new patterns too!
A set that is really fun is from “Liberty Homestead”…
They’re displayed in a beautiful wooden sewing box…
They are a Civil War themed pattern in a 3x5 spiral bound book…all for $9!

Lots of new bag patterns…
some small and some HUGE bags to put your quilts in to take for show n’ tell to guilds or better yet, use it as a gift bag to place your quilt in when giving it as a gift.
We found a great new way to make those beautiful chenille baby blankets,
NO special tool needed. We’ll be showcasing this very soon.
