Chicago International Quilt Festival

It's Spring, although in Wisconsin we still have at least a foot of snow in our backyard. But it is getting warmer and we are getting VERY excited about he Chicago International Quilt Festival April 11 - 13.
This is the second year we've shown at the Chicago Festival and are looking forward to seeing Soft Scrapers from around the mid-west.
This year our booth is twice the size of last year plus we have a bunch of new things that we're introducing:
  • A new Design Booklet "Grandma's Attic". This Design Booklet begins our line of HERITAGE SOFT SCRAP®. In this line we feature projects that highlight your family photos and your family heritage. In this Design Booklet we feature SEVEN layouts including vintage projects that we've shown at other shows.
  • A new Techniques Booklet "Restoring and Transferring Photos for HERITAGE SOFT SCRAP®. Working with old photos take some unique techniques. This Techniques Booklet talks about how to use photo editing software to get the best out of your photos. We also talk about how to apply a consistent Sepia tone to your pictures as well as giving a step-by-step process for colorizing black and white pictures.
  • We are now selling a wide range of supplies for Soft Scrap®, including 22 different types of Ink jet Printable fabric, Batting, Fusible web, and invisible thread.
  • Plus we've added a line of embellishments specially selected to make your Soft Scrap® easy, fun, and interesting. Included in our line of embellishments are laser cut silhouette mattes for your vintage photos, embellishments for both the Merry Christmas and the You DID IT design booklets; AND a special selection of buttons for the Merry Christmas Advent Calendar.

We've greatly expanded our products for you and are looking forward to showing you all the new things in Chicago.
