Featured Customer: Quiltville

I’m home from our anniversary trip to Miami and Key West and I have a post with pictures almost ready but in the mean time I thought I’d tell you about one of my regular etsy customers.

From her etsy profile in her own words: Quiltville

My name is Carly, I do business as Quiltville. I live in the Beautiful state of Wisconsin.

MY MISSION STATEMENT:
I will not sell anything I would not be proud to own myself.

I have been sewing since I was a young girl and have always enjoyed Quilting. I designed my first drawstring bag when I was in high School, back in the day of Bell Bottoms and Rock n Roll. With 5 grown children I now work full time from my home sewing, quilting, designing and selling my creations. My creative side never rests; as I am working on one project I am designing the next two.

Most of my Quilts are original designs; however, I also use traditional Quilt patterns. I only use Quilt Shop quality fabrics to ensure a superb product.
I offer a variety of Quilts; Baby quilts in everything from Colorful Brights to Soft Pastels; Lap size, Throws and Wall Quilts from Scrappy patchwork, Modern Retro to Traditional Log Cabins. I also have recently added Twin and Full size Quilts, thanks to my new Pfaff Grand Quilter. I do not have a Quilt Frame yet, so I do not offer Queen and King Quilts.

After numerous requests I have started offering my patterns for sale. I am starting with Quilt patterns and possibly my bag patterns will be available in the future.

Please take a moment to look thru my shop, perhaps you will find a Quiltville Treasure just for you!

Thanks for your Interest.

I still like Bell Bottoms and Rock n Roll!
Carly

She really does some beautiful work! If you are looking for that perfect heirloom baby or wedding gift she is the person to see.
Now go, buy lots of stuff from her so she needs to buy more fabric from me to make more!

New Fabric!

Some new goodies were delivered this week. (See the link in the right-hand column for my etsy shop)

First off I picked out a few of my favorites from Lila Tueller’s newest line, Santorini.

(Note that the olive print with the creamy yellow background is backordered)
I lovelovelove these prints! The colors match my kitchen and living room and I’m dying to get my sewing machines out finally to make some pillows out of these.

Next up is the newest from Tula Pink, Hushabye.

(Note there are two other small scale prints available in all the colors, they are listed in my etsy shop.)

This is such a fresh line for babies. My niece is expecting her second baby next spring and I’m excited to make something special for him or her out of fabrics from this line. I just love all the little hidden animals and surprises to be found in the details.

Honorable Mention

Just checking online stuff before heading out for the weekend and found a nice convo in my Etsy inbox. It informed me that I was “top fived” by AllegrasCloset in a street team interview. Pretty cool.
