What's New
Catch us on Twitter and Facebook
We're now on Twitter and Facebook, and each has its own advantages, so follow us on Twitter (craftconn) or join our group, The Craft Connection, on Facebook. We're going to try to tweet once a day or so on Twitter, just to let you know what's happening. Recent tweets announced our new employee Cassandra, 12 new jeweled buckles for belts and bags, 12 new handbag handles, and 9 new Tonga batiks. The Facebook group lets you upload photos of your recent projects, chat with other crafters, and take part in polls, as well as read more detailed news than will fit in Twitter tweets.
Horsin' Around
Horsin' Around from Moda is very cute for kids or grownups. Horses are dancing away, with coordinating Southwest blanket stripe, boots, and hats and gloves.
Handbag Handles
We've just added 12 new purse handles, for a total of 23 different handles for your totebag or purse. Many are removable, so you can swap handles and bottoms for lots of different looks.
Jeweled Buckles
A dozen different rhinestone buckles for making your own belts (from fabric, leather or webbing). Or use them for the flaps on a handbag, or just for decoration.
Hippie Chicks
Have a counter-culture day with the colorful vibrations of Bohemian style. Michelle D’Amore brings super chic retro fashion to you with her latest fabrics for Marcus Brothers. The feather paisley sets the tone with crisp, bright colors swirling in a motion-filled medley of motifs. Coordinates pick up motifs from the paisley and run with them. Best-quality premium cotton.
Jelly Roll Strips for Everyone!
Now you can get "jelly roll" strips (2-1/2" by 44") of all our regular cotton fabrics (excluding panels, of course). Combine in any combination to make your own jelly roll.
Looking for an orange jelly roll, or a brown jelly roll or a kids' jelly roll and can't find the right pre-made jelly roll? No problem! You can order 1 or more jelly roll strips on each and every regular cotton fabric page. Select as many different fabrics as you want, and we'll cut them and send you the collection.
You can also use this feature to order a sample of a fabric--the cost is only about 1/3 the cost of a fat quarter.
Backyard Bandits
Here's a whimsical idea--fabrics featuring animals we may see in our backyards, and are not always thrilled about it! These guys are the underdogs of the animal world--some people hate them, but others can't resist them. Grab these while they're available, because you won't be seeing skunk or possum fabric next year!
