Cold

Cold weather is relative.  Here in Arizona below 50 is cold.  It is windy, rainy and cold.  Yesterday we were out riding in our long sleeve t-shirts and were comfortable.  Today it is cold.  Warm up and look at the website for some new patterns.  The latest upload is by Lizzie B Cre8tive.  It is called Java Jive, just the thing for a cold, windy and rainy day.

Been a While

It has been a couple of weeks since I posted.  This past weekend we were vendors at the Desert Lily Quilt Show in Yuma.  People seemed to be buying instead of picking things up and carrying them around and then putting them down. I am hoping that the economy is finally starting to turn around.  I heard that the Road To California show was better to.  We have new fabric in called Wise Tree by Free Spirit.  It is pretty wild.   You can order this by going to http://www.cowgirl-upquilts.com/.  Cowgirl-Up Quilts is also having a Drive By Drive In Quilt Retreat in Benson, AZ on April 8, 9, and 10.  This will be held at Butterfield RV Park.  The cost will be $250.00.  Hope to see some of our out-of-town customers.  You can call at the shop for more info at 520-586-1616.

Rodeo Fabric

We finally got some rodeo fabric in.  Rodeo fabric has been hard to find.  This is by Blank and is called Best of the West II. 

It has been cool here, but I can't complain because it has been snowing in the east and the south.  The kids in Tn are ready for spring.  The grandkids have been out of  school since last Thursday, so I can't complain about the weather here. 

If you read legal thrillers, my brother Scott Pratt has a new one out.  It is called Reasonable Fear and can be purchased at amazon.com or it will be available as a download to Kindle in a few weeks.

Holidays are over

The holidays are over and it is good to get back into the regular schedule.  We had a very quiet Christmas at home.  The weather turned bad and we got ice and snow (not really common).  It hasn't really warmed up.  We spent New Years at Grapevine Canyon Ranch and listened to music and danced.  Now it is back to the real world.  Come in and see us.  We have classes starting again.  The first class will be a doll class taught by Ruith Lewis.  The cost is $35.00 and will include the cost of the kit for a doll.  Call the shop at 520-586-1616.
