The Aneela Hoey Foxglove fabric line arrived and it is stunning! Photos do not do it justice, truly. I cannot wait to place these lovelies in several upcoming projects.The shop owner that sent the Foxglove line reminded me that I love people who are passionate about textiles and all things quilting. There was phenomenal conversation, immediate shipping and the fabrics were each lovingly folded identically demonstrating such wonderful care and attention to detail. Great service in this day and age needs to be celebrated.
Another package arrived, fabrics folded all willy nilly and a fat quarter pack still wrapped in shrink wrap plastic...more on that later. The sharp contrast between the two prompted this post. Please help support your favorite local and distant quilt shops. They're struggling to survive most of the time and COVID closures are the final nail in many of these small businesses. The quilting community will undoubtedly feel the losses soon as we're directed to a couple big box situations that won't meet our collective needs. I've gone so far as to call shops to purchase from them despite a lack of online presence. Every little bit really does help right now and owners are usually thrilled to take those orders temporarily.
All my best,
Heather
