Sweet Home Quilt Co.

FINALLY! I’ve made it back to blogland to post the Friday Favorite winner from last week’s giveaway, and to share a new Friday Favorite with you! What a day! Thank goodness for great employees who understand delayed payroll checks!;  happy, sharing customers who know just when to bring in a treasured show and tell to distract me; and a super-fantastic web host who jumps right in to figure out a problem even though they are on the other side of the world (the United Kingdom to be exact!)  A significant glitch with our website consumed my attention this morning, but happily the problem has been identified and even better – fixed!!!  So on to what you’re really here for – the giveaway winner.

Last week, our Friday Favorite was an oldie, but goodie that I found stashed away at the shop – a selection of Cinnamon Stars from Fig Tree Quilts for Moda.  And the winner is Anita Amodeo!  Congratulations, Anita! (Be sure to go over and visit Anita’s cute, cute blog, too!)

Since you all seemed to LOVE Fig Tree, I found another Fig Tree product that I decided to share this week. In addition to fabric collections, Moda also has a division called Moda Home, which has ready-made items that are sold not only to quilt shops but also to gift shops and boutiques. Some items feature Moda’s fabric collections and others are more theme-based. We do special orders from Moda Home for our customers, but I don’t generally stock Moda Home items in the shop. I did find, however, a special order piece that the customer never picked up so it is time for it to have a new home.

The Friday Favorite this week is a Moda Home backpack made from the wovens in Fig Tree Quilts’ Dandelion Girl fabric collection.  (This one is in soft yellows, sage green and apricot colors whereas the one shown in the picture features the aqua colorway.)  A perfect everyday tote for yourself, or that favorite pre-teen or teen girl in your life!
