Now don’t shoot the messenger but, are you ready for the holidays yet? And no, I am not talking about the 4th of July, I am talking about the winter holidays, you know Festivus, Hanukkah, Christmas, Yule, Festival of lights, Kwanzaa and on.
Yeah I know, you just dug out the sunscreen and the beach towels but already your LQS is bringing in the newest in holiday fabric for the coming season. Much like going to Target in November to find a sweater and only to be greeted by racks of swimsuits the retail season does not always make sense but now is the time to start thinking about and buying the fabric for projects you are going to making and giving this coming season.
So while you don’t need to be sewing a stitch right now by stretching your dollars over a longer period of time you will have a healthy stock of adorable print yardage ready for you without it making a painful dent in your wallet.
The people at Ink & Arrow Fabrics understand this and have created the most adorable planning sheet for you to start thinking about what you are going to sew and for whom… sort of like a naughty/nice list for gift production 🙂 Go ahead and click HERE or on the image and a fully sized printable will pop up on your screen. I like to print mine on cardstock to make them a bit more sturdy… go on and print a few since you might have office gifts, gifts for school teachers and family to do. Create a sheet for each group and keep up with things brilliantly this year! Get really fancy and put them in a binder making it easy to take to the quilt shop with you and pick fabrics for your projects and keep up with all the details. <– Great tip right there.
The graphics on the printable are from Ink & Arrow’s newest holiday line Mingle and Jingle… isn’t is just the cutest!! Fat fluffy cats in sweaters and precious pups ready for some holiday fun and of course there is a whole coordinate line to go with these cute creatures.
Want to see them? Even better want to win them??? Yeah, I thought so… what a great way to get a jump on your holiday sewing..right?
