Island Breeze and Houston

It has been weeks of hard work, but the Island Breeze quilts are finally finished. Island Breeze is the newest pattern to be added to the Lunch Box Quilts pattern line. The quilts will debut in Houston in a few days. I can hardly wait to see them hanging in the booth.



The Island Breeze quilts are very tropical and colorful. The table runner would be perfect for outdoor summer parties or on the table for a New Year’s Eve party. The large quilt would very fun to have out in the summer months or take to a picnic. Why am I talking about summer when fall has finally come to Arizona? Well you need to start the project now so it will be ready and the shop owners will be buying for spring and summer at market this weekend.

I am leaving for the international Quilt Market in Houston tomorrow. I enjoy going to market even though I am working. It is always fun to see everyone and their new patterns or fabric. If you are coming to market please come see us in Booth #919/921

I don’t stay for Festival which follows market, but all the quilts will stay for festival. Two vendors will have the quilts and Lunch Box Quilt patterns in their booths Calico Cats Sewing Center booth #351/352 and It’s a Stitch booth #1336/1437. If you are attending festival these booths are a must see.




Also October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Lunch Box Quilts will be donating 10%of all October sales to Breast Cancer Research. All patterns sold during the month of October are marked with a special Pink Ribbon sticker. If you have been watching any football as I do, even the NFL is supporting the cause. The players are wearing pink shoes and gloves for the month of October. Help spread the word that early detection and screening saves lives.

Keep your sewing machine stitching!
