Needle Minders by Kay Mackenzie

A beautiful new style of Needle Minder is now available, Pink Lady. You can wear these magnetic needle keepers or set them down beside you. You’ll always know where your needle is. They look like lovely cameo brooches. The Needle Minders are available in a range of colors and styles, and make fantastic stocking stuffers. They’re on the Quilt Puppy Publications website. The manufacturer donates a portion of each Pink Lady sale to breast cancer awareness and education.

Green Fairy Quilts

From Boy Quilts to Girl Quilts, wallhangings and more, Green Fairy Quilts has a very nice assortment of interesting and eye catching (and just plain cute) quilt patterns.

Judi Madsen had created some nice looking, inspiring quilts. I liked them all! Here’s an eye catcher called “Quilts Within A Quilt“.

Simply Amazing Spiral Quilts Book

I watched RaNae Merrill demonstrate her technique at the Checker Booth and she had her crowed hanging on every word. Absolutely gorgeous quilts from a practically fool proof method in a book that contains a CD with patterns and templates for you make this the hottest book introduced in Houston for the 2008 Quilt Market.

Simply Amazing Spiral Quilts has a whopping 160 pages containing everything you need to know to make your own simply amazing spiral quilt. From fabric designing to quilt designing RaNae has style and and her work has a WOW factor times two. This is the nicest book I’ve opened in quite a while. Congratulations RaNae and Krause Publications.

Quilt Poetry

Jane Spolar of Quilt Poetry definitely got the “wow factor” award with her quilts at Houston Quilt Market 2008. Scroll down the page for all of her designs . Shown here is O’ Christmas Tree.

Seams Like A Dream Quilts

While the quilt patterns are lovely, it was the Wall Hanging Wednesdays that made me turn around and pick up all the brochures from Seams Like A Dream Quilts. Lovely ones for every season/holiday in the year, and that’s so handy to have.

Here is So Many Flakes, snow few men!
