Oh, she is here!!!!!!!!! Yes, that beloved lady is here and her name is Maxine. Super panel with most of her most memorable sayings and a few coordinates to go with it is now in stock here at Quilts n Gifts in Bluffton, Indiana.

Robert Kauffman has created this new fabric and believe me it is funny and so much like her.

I just came back from a quilt show in Chesterfield, Indiana and what a wonderful group of ladies. It was fun and the quilts were exquisite. Now, what did I find? boxes with new fabrics plus Maxine that I will start getting on the shelves today. After all, we are open today until 4:00pm so might as well work.

It is that time of the year were we do our spring/summer contest. Well, this time we are doing purses. We will be accepting purses for our contest starting Monday May 24th until Saturday June 5th, 2010. On Monday June 7th until Saturday June 19th, 2010 the voting begins. Like before, you can enter as many purses as you want and if you want you can let us know which pattern you used in the event that a friend asks us which pattern that is. There is wonderful prizes for the winners of our spring/summer contest.

I know you are all planting gardens but take a few minutes out of the sun and visit your friendly sewing machine and get that purse that was started a little while ago finished and enter it to win a wonderful prize. Like always, purses will be numbered as no name will show in order to vote for the purse that you like a lot and be fair to all of the entries.

Take a few minutes or an hour and do a ROAD TRIP to Quilts n Gifts in Bluffton, Indiana and see all of the new fabrics that are starting to arrive in our store. Take care my friends and like always our store number is 260-565-4438 or cell 260-273-2611 for any questions or concerns. Don't forget the Quilters Den.
