ANNOUNCEMENT

I would like to share with you my retirement plans.

In the short term, I am downsizing, not retiring. In fact, this has already begun and I have been able to get my entire inventory into one room instead of two.

However, I still have over 1100 bolts of fabric!

Downsizing consisted of eliminating certain types of fabrics, such as Christmas fabrics, Flannels, and Widebacks (although I still acquire the occasional wideback), and a reduction in the number of novelty and metallic prints that I carry. My focus going forward will be on tone on tone basics and batiks.

Retirement will occur at some point, but most likely not until the end of the year or early 2025.

In fact, I have just made a significant purchase of over 70 new fabrics. You can check them out on my JUST IN page. Grab a coffee, because there is a lot there!

And more GOOD news....

As you know, prices for just about EVERYTHING have been increasing steadily over the last couple of years. However, I have managed not to raise my prices for quilting fabrics since 2021. There were at least 3 price increases from my distributors since then, and I still do not plan to raise my prices at this time either. A change may occur later in the year if my distributors raise their prices again, but not now.

For the time being, my prices will remain at $12/yd for all cottons and batiks,

and $9/yd for solids.

I do have to raise the prices on my sale fabrics and clearance fabrics though. I had them reduced to $9 for sale fabrics and $7 for clearance fabrics. They will go up to $10 and $8 respectively at the end of the month. So now's the time to take advantage of the the current pricing as well as the addtional 10% off that is going on throughout the month of April. Right now all my sale and clearance fabrics are only $8.10 and $6.30 respectively, and there are loads to choose from!

Happy Sewing!
