Sewlovelee--April Showers


April Showers…Mean More Time for Sewing

Enjoy those rainy sew days while you can. Yardwork and warm summer days will soon replace them. 


AMASH
(All Mid-Atlantic Shop Hop)

It’s a great time to start planning your summer quilting adventure. The All Mid-Atlantic Shop Hop takes place during the months of July and August and includes 96 shops in 6 states! Sewlovelee is participating and will have shop hop magazines available soon which give details about the hop and map out all of the stores. In the meantime, get more information here


April Anniversary Gift Basket

In celebration of 10 years as your local quilt shop on the Northern Neck, Sewlovelee is giving away a gift basket every month this year! Congratulations to our March basket winner Tracy Johnson.

April’s Anniversary Basket has everything you need to get ready for the summer: a 4th of July quilt kit, 3 yards of backing, fat quarters, patterns and more! Don’t forget to enter your name into the drawing for our monthly anniversary gift basket. For every visit with a purchase of $25 or more, you have the opportunity to enter the drawing. 


 

Bernina Specials

April is National Serger Month.

The Bernina L890 Quilters Edition was designed to elevate your sewing and serging. During the month of April, take advantage of serger savings and gifts with purchase. See all of the details at berninausa.com.


 

Hello new fabric and patterns

Flower Box

Renee Nanneman brings modern colors to this rich floral collection:
Dusty Teal Laurel, Cream Dogwood, Cherry Honeysuckle, Chartreuse Jasmine, Leaf Green Honeysuckle, and Light Pewter Jasmine.
Use these prints to make her mod pieced flower pattern (for FREE here).


 

Salute

We salute Andover’s fresh take on patriotic with this star-studded collection. Blue Star Circle is clearly the star of this grouping accompanied by Red and Blue Star Vine prints. The small print lights,  White Star Arrow and White Dotted Maze would make excellent background fabrics for any Quilt of Valor.


Dimples colors

Subtle nuances in color with each Dimple print make them the perfect blender. Some of your favorite colors are back in stock. Check out all of the Dimples here.


 

108”

After the time and effort spent to create a quilt top, shouldn’t the quilt back be just as beautiful? 108” Wild Wander Lichen Stone by Windham combines subtle colors in a soothing natural flow so that you can flow effortlessly from the front to the back of your quilt.


Lawn

Need a soft flowing summer dress? Use the Chelsea Garden Lawn by Moda to make Anna Marie Horner’s swing set.


 

New Patterns and Kits

Floret Bargello Bundle

Six Floret Wildflower prints blend colors with six soothing Grunge colors for one incredible soft rainbow bargello quilt. The pattern is free with the 12 fat quarter bundle.


 

Tilda’s Exploding Heart

Thank you Susan R. for sharing your beautiful Exploding Heart quilt made with Tilda fabrics. We liked it so much that we created a kit using Tilda fabrics in a violet colorway. All fabric for the top and binding, as well as the pattern, are included in the kit. We recommend Garden Vista Iris for the backing fabric (sold separately).
