Fat Quarters Still a Hit

Fat quarters, cut and placed in a basket by my daughter, continued to be a hit at our yard sale today.  You know someone is a quilter when she comes to you with a handful of these quilting pieces and doesn’t ask what they are.

However, we also have novice quilters stop by…and others who know nothing about quilting.  One father and daughter wanted to buy a gift for his sister/her aunt who makes those tops for the bed. 

“What would she like?” they ask.  We try to find out what type of quilts she makes.  Then my daughter tells them about the coordinated fabrics she has packaged together.

They choose a package of buffs, beiges, and browns and another with beige and greens.  The daughter thought her aunt would like these.

It’s rewarding when we have supplies quilters want and see them leave happy and excited with the items they selected.
