KT February Special

 KT Fat Quarter Bundles

If you've been finishing up those WIP's while staying home this past year, it's time to add some new fabric to your stash for future projects. Robert rearranged the storage room and uncovered a few fat quarter bundles from the past 2-3 years of KT fabric collections - Milestones, On Meadowlark Pond, Fresh Cut Flowers, Nature's Glory and Through the Years, plus our newest Bittersweet Lane. There's a limited supply of each line, so order early for best selection.

Our KT February Special is any select fat quarter bundle with (40) KT fat 1/4's for only $109 plus Free Shipping. That's a retail value of $140 (with our $5 shipping). What a deal! Find the KT February Special HERE.

Here are the KT Fabric Swatch Charts for each line so you can see all the colors/prints in the bundles. You can find and print these anytime from our website HERE. Watch for new fabric swatch charts throughout the year. The Prairie Dreams and Homemade Homespuns charts are available now; fabric is shipping in late March & July, respectively. 

For my own use, I like to have the colors and prints in rows for easy reference. To find a print, look down the left side of the chart for the different tan prints and their sku numbers. Across the top are the color numbers. If you want to find #9651 in blue, go over to color number 14. I try to always number my colors the same from one fabric line to the next so it's easier to tell blue from black by the number on the selvedge edge. I hope you find these swatch charts useful in your planning and shopping.

Do you keep swatches of fabrics in a planner for upcoming projects?

KT & Friends Retreats 2021

Although the health of our nation is still uncertain at this time, but I'm optimistic that by June, we'll all be vaccinated and ready to gather in person for some quilting fun. Are you with me?

KT & Friends Retreat, Bennington, Kansas, June 22-25, 2021

Teachers

We have an all new line-up of teachers for our hometown retreat this summer. Lisa Bongean, of Primitive Gatherings, and Debbie Maddy, of Tiori Designs are joining me for three days of learning and sharing. Both of these creators are fellow Moda designers.

Lisa's warm fabric palette and whimsical prints play nicely with her delightful quilt patterns, not to mention her yummy hand-dyed wools and projects. She'll share her tricks and techniques for both in her workshops. See what Lisa is up to at primitivegatherings.com.

Debbie is known for her Shibori hand-dyed cottons in beautiful shades of blues. Her lovely fabric collections echo these colors. She'll offer her experience on piecing and fabric design in workshops created just for our retreat. Learn more about Debbie and follow her blog at debbiemaddy.com.
