I wanted to send a big "Thank you!" to everyone who stopped to shop and talk to me at the Bennington Quilt Fest! I had a wonderful time and the quilts are always amazing!  

First with some sad updates: 

Fans of the Sevenberry blenders will see that I am very nearly out of the Deep Navy hue (shown in top photo). At this time it is not able to be re-ordered by US distributors. I am looking for a suitable replacement via my Japanese distributors. Currently I am down to 4 yards of this fabric.

Once again it is that time of year that USPS increases their shipping costs and times due to the holiday seasons. Most customers will see a $.40 to $.55 surcharge on packages.  Shipping times are also extended with USPS stating that we should expect  packages shipped between the contiguous U.S. and non-contiguous US locations to have an expected delivery time of 10 days or more. Some routes may take significantly longer.

Now the good news!

The Navy colored "Splashing Spirits" is now back in stock!

All colors of the "maiko-san" panel should be restocked by the end of the week.

I was able to also place an order for two NEW Wagara panels. No ETA is known as of yet but one panel has an adorable bunny print and the second features a cat print! I will provide more information as soon as it is provided to me. Look for a "sneak peak" in next week's update!
