Are you ready for Summer?

We’re focusing on clothing, tote bags, table runners, and other non-quilt items including barn quilt blocks (sign up for the class on June 19th!). So keep your eyes on Facebook and Instagram as we share ready-made items (perfect for hostess gifts and concerts in the park) and patterns and fabric.

Quilters Trek in-store kickoff, June 22-26:

Again this year, Sewlovelee’s take on QT will be on all the NNK, focusing on the colorful surprises of the natural landscape. Think quintessential blue crabs, rural and agricultural land where a familiar farm vehicle is visible in the distance, nighttime and the glorious moon, and a rainbow and silver-lined clouds. Free patterns are available in the shop starting Tuesday, June 22 and we’ll celebrate Quilters Trek and the #NNK all week with some fun and appropriate treats. Learn more about Colors of the NNK starting Wednesday, June 9 on the website and in the shop.

Sewlovelee is featured in the Lancaster By the Bay Chamber directory!
What a great start to summer and a fantastic way to introduce people to the world of quilting! Lee and Sewlovelee were not only featured in the directory, but are the lead in the story “Women By the Water: Local Business Owners”!! The story starts with Lee talking about the magic quilters create when they combine fabric and patterns that result in quilts. . . we’ll be asking you this summer for examples of your magic, so stay tuned and get thinking. Get your own copy of the directory at Sewlovelee.

Get creating for summer!

Red, white, and blue are the colors of the day! We have a wide selection of patriotic fabrics in jelly rolls, 6-piece fat quarter bundles, kits, and yardage, as well as patterns. The perfect pattern for fat quarters is Stars n Stripes. Prefer a kit? We’ve got the Patriotic Floral Waves Quilt Kit.

Is there anything better than drama and water? That’s what you get when you combine the The Regatta Pattern with Sail Away Border Boats and other fabric from the Sail Away collection.

Bountiful is for fall, but there are so many uses for it now, particularly the cream and black colorways. (Orange)

The arrival of Crystal Ravens marks planning for the fall and Halloween. Yes, Halloween. Stay tuned for a shop sample using this kind-of-creepy fabric!

3 yard bundles

It’s sew much easier to envision a quilt when you can see it made! Here are two of the newest bundles made into shop samples: Out of the Box and Sail Away.
