Visit by Kaffe and Brandon!

This past week, we were honored to have Kaffe Fassett and his design partner Brandon Mably visit The Rabbit's Lair! 

Prior to an inspirational trunk show by Kaffe on Monday night, Brandon conducted a knitting workshop called "Concentrate on Color". 


Class members enjoyed Brandon's input on their color selections and knitting expertise.
The same pattern can look so different, depending on color placement!
The next day, it was time for Kaffe's class on the Bordered Diamond Quilt. 
The focus of the class was on color placement, not on sewing technique. 
Individual attention was key -- class size was kept to a size that would allow that.
Everyone agreed that it was a productive day -- and enjoyable!  Wonder when he'll be back this way? 

You know what they say about all work and no play -- that won't happen with Brandon and Ellen around!
If you don't already own one of Kaffe's quilt books, do yourself a favor and choose one!  You'll learn a lot and discover some new creativity!

Quilt Market Was Awesome!


Wow! I had a short but wonderful trip to Houston for Fall Quilt Market! Saw lots of new ideas to bring back and share with you. Here is a picture taken in the Westminster Fabric booth with Kaffe Fassett and Brandon Mably. I know Clarice wishes she had been there to take in the experience. Of course, we will continue to bring in his newest fabrics and books.

Now is the perfect time to come in the shop and see "What's New." We'll also keep you updated weekly as new patterns, fabrics, classes are added to our growing inventory!

Have a great weekend!
Only Because of His Grace,
