Springtime colors and flowers

Who needs a few bright florals and geometric prints to add some fresh color to a project?  The additions shown below are pretty fun to play with  - we sliced up a mix of 8 different color ways of Jen Kingwell's 'lollie' fabrics - that's 64 prints in 2 yards worth of fabric for one great punch of color and coordinated mix of prints! 

Lollies for Moda

Cheeky for Moda

How about a great new book to keep you company during our rainy spring weather? 

If you're ready for a spring refresh - we've got some fun textured wools, new soft colors of pearl cotton and perhaps just a splash of old-school solid colors in some easter egg hues? 

Kona Solids

Just a reminder that we'll be closed for Easter on Sunday the 21st!  We hope you'll be enjoying the day with friends and family and perhaps a chocolate bunny or two!

QUILT SHOW Easter Weekend!

We will be Closed Easter Sunday but My Garden Nursery will be open and the quilts will be on display!

We hope you can find time to enjoy the show - it will be available for viewing Friday, Saturday and Sunday at:

My Garden Nursery
929 E Bakerview Rd
Bellingham,WA
360-366-8406
Business Hours are 9am-5:30pm Friday and Saturday, 10am-5pm on Sunday!

We'll be showcasing the Year of the Rooster challenge quilts, along with a group of quilts created by Reynola Pakusich...and several more from our great community of quilters.  Can't wait to see some spring quilts in the Garden!

Here is a fun wool applique project Suz designed - a great opportunity to add some stitching embellishments, and of course - you could frame it or make a fresh pillow for spring or a wall hanging.  Great seasonal decor?!

HOT Rolls

We have a variety of Moda Jelly Rolls on special for $25.00 each, while supplies last! There are several of some collections and only a few of others.  Get them while they're hot!  

And since we're talking about rolls - here is a festive easter table topper - of course any flavor of Kona solid works well with these chocolate bunnies.  This is a fun new pattern we're stocking - you can create a variety of sizes from placemat to centerpiece and showcase a great focal fabric if you want.  The pattern is by Tiger Lily Press, called Anything Goes.  

And this fun one I couldn't say no to - it's got a campfire, tent, moon and mouse, and of course fits the low volume and fussy cutting requirements if you're working on something specific this just might blend right in.  

Spring fever

Tomorrow is another First Friday Finish sewing day here at Two Thimbles - join Sharon for some quality sewing time, consultation and hands-on help if you need it.  Call or reserve a spot online if you need some dedicated sewing time away from distractions and obligations at home.  And if you needed some distraction...

We can't decide whether to focus on all things Green for St. Patrick's, or go straight to the chocolate and easter eggs?  Is there time to decorate and do some special baking for both?!

We have two kits left of the eggroll table runner we created that is like the one featured on the cover of Quilts and More from a couple of years ago - we made our chicks out of wool for added texture.  If you want a fun and bright spring project - this would be a fun finish - these last 2 kits are available at 20% off!  

And if you wanted a bit more spring time inspiration - the latest Quiltmania book, Feathering the Nest 2 by Brigitte Giblin has arrived and we have a few copies available still!  It is pretty spectacular showcasing a variety of projects and great color palettes.
