More Blenders

I had sold out very quickly the Royal Blue Toscana (suede looking fabric from Northcott) so reordered that color and also a nice black and a pretty red.    The lighting was a little weird when taking this, the black doesn't have anywhere near the variation in color that this looks like and the red is a true red and the blue is darker.  Should have retaken the picture but you can get the idea..


Blenders are one of those things that are not real exciting to order or to buy but we always need them.  I tend to buy floral fabrics, theme prints etc. and then later wonder what to use with them and having several blenders always makes things easier.

Two Bright Blenders

I recently received a card from Timeless Treasures showing a line of bright blenders they have called Dream.  Since I was totally out of both a nice lime green and bright yellow blender I decided to try them out.

I received both of these last night.  If they sell well I will be glad to order other colors.


You can't really tell from the picture but they have all over tone on tone dots.  Very nice and just adds texture over a solid.  I don't know about you but I rarely use a solid fabric unless it is white or black.

Another Arrival

Just arrived today is this panel, it is called Tiffany and is by Timeless Treasures.  Bright crisp colors and all motifs outlined in gold.  I am definitely going to grab one of these for myself.  I think if I had an office I would put this on the wall and pretend that it was a window but since my office is my house I think I will try and figure out a couple of borders for it and make a wall hanging for our entry way.

I have a quilt hanger called Hang it Dang it and love it.  Hangs with one nail and telescopes to different sizes so I can change my wall hangings with the seasons (if I get time to make them that is) and never put another hole in the wall.

Layer Cake Arrivals

Another arrival, this time it is layer cakes from Moda. A really nice grouping of aqua, green, yellow and peach fabrics by Sandy Gervais for Moda. The layer cakes are called Chance of Flowers and here is a picture of the front of the layer cakes and also a shot of some of the other fabrics in the grouping. Makes me think that just maybe spring is around the corner.




Undersea Adventures

Undersea Adventures - I had the Northcott Stonehenge Undersea Adventures panel and fabric at the shop last year and it quickly sold out.  Since Northcott is going to discontinue production of these I went ahead and got another bolt of the panels and one of the main "go with" fabric.  If you missed out on this last year or just need more of the fabric now is the time to get it.  If you are interested in either of these email me at oldetownestitchery@gmail.com for questions or ordering or check out our etsy site.

New Arrivals

Woke to a box from Timeless Treasures on our front porch.  There is a cute kids panel



and my favorite a beautiful bolt of fabric in blue and turquoise with lots of gold running through it.  In my opinion this is one of the prettiest fabrics I have ever received but these are colors I love and a little gold or bling I always gravitate towards.
