Sarah Watt’s Timber and Leaf line just arrived and it is so sweet! We have yardage and will always have pre-cuts of all the fabric we bring in so you can grab it quickly. What will you do with it? I’m thinking pajama bottoms, pillowcases and a throw quilt.
Lizzy House’s latest collection, Constellations, is a fun mix of celestial motifs, including phases of the moon (my personal fav) and stars. Look closely at the constellation print and discover classic Lizzy designs from Red Letter Day, Castle Peeps, Outfoxed, and more! — READ MORE —
We are pleased to announce that Modern Domestic will now be carrying a very full and vibrant collection of Kona Cotton Solid Quilting Fabrics. We have brought in about 100 bolts to meet your specific color needs. So next time you need that precise shade of blue or that perfect tone of grass green, we can help. Stop in soon and see what’s in store for 2013!
It’s been a month since Lupine and I got back from our enlightening trip to Thailand and now that we are settled back into our routine, I thought it was time to share some pictures with all of you. As many of you know, we won this trip by being voted BERNINA’s Rookie of the Year at BU last summer. What an honor and yes please, we would love to be one of the 17 dealers to represent the US on their first tour of the Thai BERNINA factory. The BERNINA portion of the trip was only one week long and since they treated, we decided to front load the trip with a week of fun on the island of Samui. After all, when you fly across the Pacific, you simply must make it worth the longest flight ever. Here’s a few snapshots of our two weeks spent sipping cocktails, risking our lives driving scooters around a tropical island and seeing first-hand the assembly of the world’s greatest sewing machines.
You may just want to stop by and sew and not even have a project in mind. We would like to make that possible. We are now packaging fabric kits for simple projects that come with Open Sewing cards so you can make the project right here at MD!
Meredith has been working hard on a useful and timely project for spring. Have a look at this little tote for all your small storage needs! It would also make a great Easter Basket, car tote for kids, book holder by your bed, sewing caddy… just to name a few. — READ MORE —
What’s more perfect then learning how to improv sew on a Sunday afternoon? We’d love to have you come join us for the Wonky Log Cabin Pillow class. In this class, you’ll feel liberated as we make a quilt block without having to precisely measure every piece. Often so many people tell me they are fearful to start quilting because it requires so much precise sewing and measuring. If this is you, rest assured that this doesn’t have to be the case!
Tomorrow is the last day for our Touchdown BERNINA financing event! Imagine bringing home a beautiful new 7 Series machine for surprisingly low monthly payments! It is a great way to make your sewing dreams come true.
Just a quick little note to let you know you can get the special Open Sewing rate of $100/month anytime at MD! We have received many requests to keep this rate going and we aim to please! It will run per calendar month, so be sure to get yours at the beginning of every month to maximize your time and money. Open sewing is great if you have a load of projects to get through or you just want to have a little sewing home-away-from-home.
For months Heather, Meredith and I have been meeting, sewing, planning, and getting super excited to offer you a new exclusive quilting club at MD! Join us for Patchwork Society and make 10 beautiful blocks, 10 additional projects, learn loads of new skills, join other quilters, make new friends, and much more the second Saturday each month.
