It might only be December, but we are already eager for Bluebonnets… and they have arrived.  Each year Moda manages to come up with another bluebonnet design and this year they really did some great prints.  Everyone wants to know, what else can you do with a bluebonnet???…. well ask Moda…they figured it out.

It’s impossible to see the detail in this little photo, so our websmaster is working quickly to get these up on our website.  We know lots of displaced Texans who love their bluebonnets.

The group came in those great yellows and light blues, but also with the black background.  This colorway usually ends up being the most popular. 

Hope you will come by the shop and take a look…

Speaking of bluebonnets, don’t forget to mark your Calendar for our 12th Annual Bluebonnet Patchwork Shop Hop April 15th - 18th, 2010.  You can get full details on our website www.creations-online.com

What fun I had sewing this coat this morning.  That’s right… it was only a morning project. 

   The fabric is a sherpa backed suede which is 60″ wide.  All it took to make this coat was a couple of yards of fabric, Kwik Sew pattern 3358, the walking foot on my machine and a few hours.  This pattern was designed for this fabric, so it was very easy. 

    I washed the fabric before I cut out the pattern.  After cutting, I washed the pieces again so that there would not be any “fuzz”. 

     We have carried this fabric for several years, but it hasn’t been cold enough for a good warm coat.  We made some great vests from these fabrics, but this year might just be the year for that coat. 

These  photos will give you an idea of the color choices we have.  Along with these colors, we also have black suede with a black sherpa backing, brown suede with a brown sherpa backing, and natural with natural sherpa backing.

These fabrics retail for $29.98 and are completely machine washable.  Check out website in the next week and you will find the pattern and fabrics on our website www.creations-online.com   Better yet, drop by the shop and “feel” the fabrics.
