Little Quilts 2015 Second Saturday Sampler Finale and last day as a retail store

Calling this year's Saturday Sampler participants:

Last Saturday we had our final 2015 Saturday Sampler gathering. We gave out the fabric packets for December and January along with the finishing directions for ALL the quilts.

Queen Wanda H. did a beautiful job on the "Special Memories" quilt. Directions are included for the 6" sampler in a chain like setting. 

Tricia made hers with batiks and one beautiful fabric for the setting triangles and border. 

Princess Wanda C did the neutral alternate and called hers "Kick it in Neutral" with fused cattails in a strippy setting. Her husband Mickey loves it and is claiming it.

Jackie is working on a beautiful red and white quilt with an Irish Chain style setting block.

If you were unable to attend, please come by before 5pm today 12/19/15) as that's when the Little Quilts retail store will be closing our doors after 17 years. If you cannot attend, please call 770-578-6727, give us your credit card information and we'll mail your goodies right out. It's been a fun year, finished with spectacular quilts made by an outstanding staff. If you did not participate but would like the pattern set, check the website for ordering information.

Be blessed as we have been. Thank you for your friendships and support.  

Stack and Whack in Black and White

Karen came in to help celebrate during our Wall To Wall Retirement Sale. For " Show & Tell", which we love....she brought in a pink and black and white Stack & Whack quilt. Karen loves black and white fabrics with an accent color! She recently purchased a long arm quilting machine and is enjoying learning how to use it, by finishing projects and starting new ones.

Red and White

Dena has made a traditional block in reds and whites. How perfect for the Christmas season.

Wool hooked show and tell

Is it a rug or a purse?  It is a gorgeous wool hooked purse.  We are impressed with this creation by Chris.

Enjoy your quilts...and ours too...

Grace from North Georgia sent us this picture of her Nativity set displayed on the Log Cabin Table Runner from Little Memories. She purchased from one of our offers in a past email newsletter featuring some of our models we are offering for sale.

 Mary Ellen doesn't want to keep them all on a shelf at home...she loves sharing them with so many of you. Grace is a knitter and knitted that darling set.

Watch the email newsletter for more models being offered this week and next.

Hooked Rugs For Sale

Little Quilts has always been a haven for rug hooking in the Atlanta area.  Not only did we sell beautiful wool, but we have had classes in the art of rug hooking and wool dyeing as well as actively supporting the local Rug Hooking Guild.

We currently have three rugs in the shop that are available for sale from one of the local rug hooking artists in our community.  They are absolutely spectacular!   All are 100% wool and beautifully bound.

This rug, 5'8" x 2'5" is currently priced at $1000 (was $2000) 

 

Wouldn't these Santas be a perfect addition to your Christmas decorating?  At 2'9" x 1'9" it's perfect as a small rug or a wall hanging.  $400

This folk-art style cat is one of our favorites!  It's 3' x 2" and currently priced at $350 (was $900).

Sampler of Memories

Ann gathered up parts for the past 20 quilts she's made and made one special memory quilt. It's what she calls an  'interesting quilt' quilt not especially 'pretty'. It's almost 100" square.

Quilt as you sew show and tell

During our "wall to wall retirement" ... We've enjoyed the well wishes from everyone... A customer brought in this great quilt . Shown is the front and the back....she liked the back best!

LQ goes international

Wendy in New Zealand just sent a picture of her Women of the Bible Quilt. She has the center finished. It's been so much fun to see however everyone has made their own version of this fun project we offered last year.
