Congrats to April at Sewing Novice, you have won 2 patterns from Keyka Lou patterns! Although, from looking at your blog, I hardly think you are a novice! Readers of Crafty Girls Workshop, you should REALLY stop by April’s blog, she takes great pictures and makes awesome stuff!
Happy Stitches,

Last year was a quiet one. Went to dinner and celebrated with family. I would make a doll blanket for my granddaughter.
Congrats!!! I’ve been in touch through e-mail but if you see this first please e-mail me anna@craftygirlsworkshop.com with your home address so I can send the box of goodness out to you!!
Thanks to EVERYONE who entered! It was so incredibly awesome to get 198 birthday wishes from you all plus getting to hear what everyone would do with the scraps. I truely think that quilters are the mostest generous people EVER!!
I’m heading out to Houston Fall Quilt Market in just a couple of hours, yippee! I’ll probably be a little slower in replying to e-mails because I’ll be at the Market all day but just know that I’m searching out FABULOUS new patterns and fabrics and awesome new goodies for the shop.
I’m also going to do my bestest to figure out how to use Twitter so I can give updates about what’s going on so I hope you’ll follow me on Twitter. AND if you want some cool info about this trade show for fabric shop vendors, go to your Twitter account and search for #quiltmarket It will bring up everything everyone is saying about Quilt Market including pictures! I guess the cat’s out of the bag now!!
Happy Stitches,
Anna

“I would embellish Christmas gifts.”
CONGRATS Ruth! I’ve contacted you through e-mail but if you didn’t get the e-mail please contact me ASAP with your mailing info so I can pass that on to Michele from Little Red Cottage.
Thanks to EVERYONE who participated! We had an amazing number of comments and participants. It was really fun to hear what everyone would do with those lovely fall goodies. Oh, and now we’ve actually been having some nice COOL weather here in south-ish Texas, I mean like, highs in he low 80s and lows down into the 50s!! That’s almost UNHEARD of for us this time of year. Usually it’s still in the 90s and swimming weather.
So, thanks again and stay tuned more giveaways to come to celebrate the last week of JELLY ROLL MADNESS month! Can you believe it’s almost over!? There is still time though to use the COUPON code JR10 to get a 10% discount on your ENTIRE order! Oh and guess what? There might be a mystery sale going on. I’m going to sneak in to the shop and drop the prices on a particular group of fabrics. But the only way you’ll know is if you visit and check the shop for the discounted prices. Shh, it’s a secret! OR I might offer a hint or even tell you flat out if you happen to subscribe to my e-mail newsletter. HINT: It might be one of the sections I mention below.
I’ve also rearranged things a little bit over there. I spent most of Sunday adding main category sections for Collection, Manufacturer and Designer. I hope you’ll go take a look because I think the arrangement makes A LOT more sense now. You can even view fabrics that sort of go together based on a Theme or Print, such as Dots or Stripes, Graphic or Novelty. There is even a separate section just for Collection>Bella Solids AND Theme/Print> Tonal/Solids. I hope you’ll let me know what you think of the new arrangement. Maybe drop me a line by filling in the contact us form on the website or leave a comment on this post. It’s sort of fun, like rearranging furniture, you know? But don’t worry, I think this is an arrangement I’m going to stick with for awhile.
Well, I guess that’s all for now. More fun to come soon!
Happy Stitches,
Anna
