I love my Marcy Tilton Skirt!



Today I am wearing my Marcy Tilton Skirt from Vogue Patterns. We sell all our Vogue Patterns at 20% off everyday!

Dad came in for a quick visit to the store and to deliver eggs fresh from the family chickens!

I am busy working on the class schedule for 2012. I am super excited about some of the new classes we are developing! Are there any classes that you are looking for?

Color me White Quilt Class with Angie Woolman - October 23rd















Call us at 510-845-6106 to register and learn how to create a stunning visual quilt of your own! The class is only $60 and taught by Angie Woolman.

Patchwork is fairly simple, but you must enjoy collecting these light and white fabrics which contain large gesture!! No previous color theory is needed - just the desire to jump right into a new world of fabric use!

You can check out Angie's blog at angiewoolman.blogspot.com
COLOR with WHITE
Tessellation = Tiling with 1 geometric shape. Our project will use a "tessellated" design, in this quilt a 4-sided shape.

This color class teaches you to work in fabrics with "large gesture" on a "light ground." These wonderful fabrics are currently abundant of at SMD. See photos and examples hanging in store next to class sample, made a student from a previous class

Students in class create one-of-a-kind flowing pieces while learning about line and texture and surface design.

Everyday is like Christmas here!




















I just love the energy when the UPS and Fed Ex trucks pull up and unload boxes of fabric, notions, patterns and buttons! Today we got in beautiful cottons and oilcloth!

One of the inspiring things we love to do at Stonemountain & Daughter is show off the many uses of fabric in clothing and quilts! The other day a customer told me that she always looks UP when she comes into our store to check out the latest up on our walls and hanging from the ceiling. I loved hearing that and it inspires me to search for new and exciting displays of garments, quilts and more.

Come check out our exciting sample show of Kwik Sew Patterns hanging on our walls. Here are some photos of what you can see.
