Back To Our Regular Programming

Labor Day approaches and the summer gives way to our fall, our favorite season! Joelle just returned from a beautiful trip on the Lower Salmon River in Idaho, organized by Helfrich Guides and Barnett Vineyards (the photo above is of some rocks she collected on the river).  Isabelle has returned from Seattle and painting in her studio. Molly is working on her new Purl Bee column, Molly's Sketchbook, Ani soon returns to us from Los Angeles, and Phyllis heads back to school (but don't worry, you'll still find her at Purl Patchwork 4 days a week). 

New fabrics, yarns and books are beginning to arrive by the truckload!

We're excited to share that we've received quite a few new prints from Liberty of London. Here are two of our favorites.

We're getting back to work to bring you lots of fresh ideas and projects for the fall and winter seasons!

Stay Tuned!

The fabrics are beautiful of course, but I especially love the picture of the river rocks!

What a lovely shot of the river rocks. It's easy to see why Joelle was a successful photo stylist!
(Not-so-patiently waiting for the new book...)

The picture of pebbles made me think of the World Beach project being set up by an artist in the UK to bring together people all over the world by making designs on beaches with pebbles.

Only Joelle could see all those colors in the rocks and assemble them in such a coherent way. Gorgeous, and welcome back!
