Let me tell you first about a few new fabrics in the shop.  First of all there is MODERN EDGE from Benartex - a grouping with a contempory look, yet very pleasing to the eye.  FAN FARE from Andover, an Oriental looking group.  Christmas prints are beginning to arrive and we just got a great new shipment of JELLY ROLLS.  Potato fabric is here again.
Several new books should be here with a few days:  CHRISTMAS WITH POSSIBLLITIES and SUPPER SIMBLE JELLY ROLL QUILTS WITH ALEX ANDERSON & LIZ ANELOSKI. 
It is with mixed feelings that I must tell you that very shortly the store will be sold to a new owner.  This will allow me to retire!  At this point I am looking forward to that.  My grandson is in Michigan is growing up fast!  This will allow us to see him more often, let me work on some of those projects that I have hoarded over the years owning the shop, spend more time making candles (without feeling rushed) and maybe some housework! 
Shelley Booska will become the new owner She has previous retail experience and has been a quilter for many years.  I'm sure she will have lots of new and inspirational ideas for you.  The staff here in the shop will remain the same.       
I will miss all the friends I've made over the last 25 years.  It has been quite an experience for me.  I trust that the shop has been an inspiration and a blessing to you in the years we have done business.
Blessings to you all.
Jane Benson
