TRUNK SHOWS

We have two trunk shows in the shop for the month of August, but remember the adage about the early worm getting the worm.... If you want the best selection you come soon! The picture on the right represents about 99% of the Kirk and Bradley/Burnett canvases. As you can see, they are primarily smalls. If you love 13 count ornaments, come immediately because they only sent 7 of them! There are approximately 180 canvases represented here, so understand that you will need to thumb through the piles. These are all travel rounds and then lots of Christmas ornaments. 


All trunk show canvases are 20% off ! Not only that, but all Christmas items in the ENTIRE store are 20% off! Here is the small pile of the larger canvases that came in the show. Eleven of them are thirteen count. I will make life easy for you. Should you buy an 18 count canvas and it is visually difficult for you, you may buy a Mag-Eye to take home, also at 20% off.

The other trunk show here for the month are the variegated silk flosses from Treenway Silks. I have selected the 6 strand, 10 yard skeins for your delight. The two lines are the Montano collection and the 26 Roses collection. Judith Montano was a extremely popular designer about 20 years ago. She had a very popular book out with embroidery stitches for Victorian crazy quilting.
The 26 Roses line has extreme merit because at least 10% of all sales goes to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. As of a year ago, Treenway had contriubted over $22,000.

The 26 Roses name arose because the very young children with CF often pronounce the  name of the disease as 26 Roses. All of the threads in the line, including the silk ribbons from Treenway that we own and are hanging on this pegboard, are 20% off our retail prices.  Will I see you tomorrow?
