St. Remy de Provence

St. Remy, as I like to call it, has arrived 2 months early! It looks great with the tram roll hanging above it. I love this little line so much, I hope y'all do too. The patterns for Eva made with St Remy came in the mail a couple of days before the fabric. I'm still waiting on some solid black fabric to complete the kits for the Eva quilt, but you could always substitute it for something else.

Here's a larger picture of the Eva quilt. I love it so much, it took my breath away when it showed up for Quilt Festival. Wouldn't it be great on a little girl's bed? Now I'm just waiting for my die cutter to arrive so I can make kits for a Grandmother's Garden quilted bag out of St Remy.

Quilt Festival 2011

It's that time of year! We're cutting fat quarters, finishing applique blocks, and printing patterns. Oh, October is always the busiest month of the year. The store in Galveston will be open our usual hours Monday-Saturday 10am to 6pm. But we will also be open Sunday, October 30th noon - 4pm and Monday, October 31st (Halloween!) from 10am - 6pm. The week of Festival we will also be open on Sunday, November 6th noon - 4pm and Monday, November 7th 10am - 6pm. If you'd like to stop by after hours please give us a call (409-765-5772) to make an appointment.

ARToberFEST

I just want to let everyone know that tomorrow (Saturday, October 15th) and the next day (Sunday, October 16th) is the 14th annual ARToberFEST in Downtown Galveston! The festival will feature 125 quality artists and artisans. It's a really fun event because Postoffice Street (the street we're on) gets closed off and the artists get to put up tents right in the road. There is a $5 admission fee for everyone over 12 years old, but the proceeds go to the Galveston Island Humane Society. Can you think of anything better than that? And since ARToberFEST is happening right in front of the store, we're going to be open on Sunday too. I hope to see you there!

Now Showing: Susan Spjut

For those of you that have been in the shop, you might have seen my pelican painting (not pictured). Well, we acquired the painting from the Bogan Gallery a few months back. It's gotten so much attention that we are now showing a few more paintings by the same artist Susan Spjut. 

Susan helped clean up the Gulf after the BP oil spill last summer. She was so inspired by Galveston and the bird life here that she painted this series. 

Starting with a layer of newspaper with articles about the oil spill, she uses oil paints and oil from the actual spill to paint these beautiful birds. We are so lucky to have these great paintings in our shop.
