Sandi Henderson's Farmer's Market is Here!

Yay! We're so excited ...... Sandi is very talented and her new fabric line is fun and cheerful.
You must check out her blog. So full of inspiration and some great tutorials.

Another fabric designer favorite - Amy Butler's has been busy as well. Her latest line: Daisy Chain is coming to Beverly's soon! Also coming soon and new to Beverly's is Lila Tueller's fabric line called Woodland Bloom. You can read about Lila at Quilters Buzz, or her blog.

Scrapbooking Inspiration from Scrap Simple!

Kathy was looking through Scrap Simple, and got inspired by the layout on page 73 - Here's her layout, using the photos from her trip to Europe this past May:

Scrap Simple is on sale at Beverly's this month for $16.97.

Also on sale this month are all the tools you need to make an ATC..... keep checking back - we'll be showing you some of our ATC's, letting you know about the latest fabric in our stores, what you can do with corn husks - and having a giveaway!

New Offray Ribbons at Beverly's

Don’t know if you've noticed, but Beverly's has a new display of Offray Ribbons. There's a great assortment of colors, ribbon with and without wire, and lots of widths to choose from. So many of the spools coordinate that it makes projects like this one easy to do.

This journal was made using a 7"x7" spiral bound sketch book and 6 spools of ribbon. Get several sketch books and you can make some quick and easy gifts. (6 spools will do about 6 journals).

The Winner of the $25 Beverly's Gift Card.......

is nillakitty!!! Thanks to everyone who played along. Nillakitty, we'll be in touch with you shortly with instructions to claim you prize.

You can find her pincushion here.

Look for another drawing when our October mailer comes out.

Where's yours? A pincushion makes a great gift, and to make it yourself makes it super special! Plus you could win a $25 Beverly's gift card (see yesterday's post for details), and check out the comments to see the cute pincushions people are coming up with.

Win a Beverly's $25 Gift Card!

This month Beverly's is offering 25% off of two books that feature pincushions: Cupcake Pincushions and Pretty Little Pincushions.
So we thought "what a perfect excuse to have a giveaway!"

Pincushions are all the rage, and just like snowflakes, no two are alike. We'd love to see what you come up with. You can use one of these books as inspiration, or come up with your own creation. Just leave a comment with a link to an image of your pincushion, and let us know which Beverly's you shop at. We'll draw a winner on Monday, the 22nd.

Can't wait to see what you've come up with - and to get things rolling, here's a contribution from Laura:

Get Started on Those Holiday Gifts!

Too early? We think not ..... it's never too early to get start on those gift giving projects. Miss Kathy has been busy. Here's a knitting needle case she whipped up. Easily done with a couple of fat quarters and seam binding.

Then she made up this cute purse, that could be used for toting around your latest knitting project. She used a pattern from the Slouchy Bags book. Great ideas - thanks Kathy!


Would you like to win a Beverly's Gift Card worth $25? Who wouldn't? Keep checking back here on our blog to find out how.... and get ready to get crafty!
