NEW Block Of The Month Starting In September - "Our Lady Of The Sea"

Cottonseed Glory will be offering this wonderful quilt, designed by Susan Garmin, as patterns or patterns with kits.

Each block in this very special quilt features a tall ship, each from a different country, and surrounding each ship there is a garland of flowers native to that country.  The floral border is made up of all the different flowers in the blocks and in each corner  there is a mariner's compass.  When I saw this quilt, I thought it would be perfect for our area.  The applique can be done by hand or machine.  You can find a picture on the website of Quakertown Quilts.  Our prices will be the same as theirs, but you will not have to pay postage.  If you are interested, we'd like to know in order to estimate how many to order and kits to cut.  E-mail or call and let us know what you think.

WE NEED YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS!
Our mailing list has grown so large that there might come a time when we have to go to e-mail for our class schedules.  If so, there will always be printed copies available in the shop.. Many of you already know that you get the class info via -e-mail as much as two weeks ahead of the mail and that you know about promotions, new arrivals, special events that are not mailed out.  Your e-mail address will not be given to anyone else under any circumstances.  You can e-mail me your e-mail address or any changes to ones we already have, send to pat@cottonseedglory.com.
