Winter is here!!!

Hello Every!!!

Sorry for not posting sooner.. but things keep getting in the way. Like the body, getting older is not fun or feel good. I will not go into details but there are places in the arms and legs that keep hurting and will not stop. Between  Fibro. and Rheumitoid arthritis, it just keeps going on and on, but I will not let any of it stop me. Maybe slow me but not stop me. So on to better things like sewing and quilting.

I may have some not so good news or good about the web store. I may close it and sell on Ebay, it is cheaper to keep it going. You pay as you sell, and sales are very slow right now, my prices are as low as I can afford. I will be able to sell in bulk, 2-3 yards or more at a time. So look for changes in January.

Now at the store prices have changed again. I have all my bargain fabric (older designs) down to
$2.95. And 18 of the Regular fabrics for $2.95 thru January. Check it out..
www.ctheworldofquilting.com

All my fabrics are the best grade and I do not think anyone noticed but I have the last of Kings Road fabric.  They stopped selling cotton quilting fabric. Now they sell only clothing fabric, and specialize in Mens suits. They had the best ,soft grade of 100% cotton, I still love it. I will post more Jewelry on Ebay too, I have a half dozen or so new desigins. I am looking forward to selling on Ebay and hope to see some of you there. I will post my new Ebay address soon..

See everyone at the store www.ctheworldofquilting.com

Coool Weather ahead!!!!

Hello Everyone!!

I am so glade the weather has cooled off, my Body can get back to a little bit of normalcy. The cool weather also means more sewing and Quilting. I have so many projects going, like the old women in the shoe, I don't know what to do (first).

I have been working a little everyday on my Blue Jean Project. I have decided to write a book of Blue Jean Patterns. There will be Jacket's, Back Packs, Purse's, Vest. They will all be my designs. I have the Jacket's started, cut, photoed, and sewed.

Anyone out there have suggestions for a name on the book?  I have the photo's picked out, now I need a name and then a lay out.

I am running the same SALE FROM SEPTEMBER.
Regular $5.95 on Sale $2.95. And there are 18 fabric patterns to chose from. See you at the store  www.ctheworldofquilting .
My bargain fabric's are regular $3.50. I know I have the lowest price's around, so come and check them out.

The Book's above are on sale $10.95, and many more to choose from. There are pre cut strips and Fat Quarter's, 5x5 cuts too.

I also need to post some of the new Jewelry I made, I took photo's but have not had the time to post.

Hope to see everyone at the store!!

Thanks Connie at   www.ctheworldofquilting.com

Hot weather/ Big Fabric Sale

Hello Everyone!!

How is everyone doing in this Hot HOT weather. I am just bearly making it, hot weather is very hard on my body because of the kind of rheumatoid arthritis I have. Cold makes me stiff and heat makes me hurt, So it effects me in different ways. But I try to keep a positive out look and keep on doing and going or I would shut down and I have plenty to keep me going.

I wish to announce I will be a Grandma and a Great Grandma, I think that is a mouth full and some.
The Grand is a boy and Great is a boy. This tells you I have to get busy and make Baby Quilts and that is not saying anything about my UFO's, unfinished objects, (Quilts).

I have the project of New Jewelry I have made, and another project of making patterns. My first pattern for BlueJean Quilted Jackets, that I just love. So check back in October and I will have some pictures. There will also be patterns for BlueJean Back Packs, maybe a book on Patterns.
Boy ! How do I think of all these things..

OK!  Back to quilting and the sale at the Web Store (www.ctheworldofquilting.com) I have
put 18 of the regular $5.95 fabric's on sale for $2.95. I know fall is comming and we do more sewing, so check out the sale. I also need to get inventory down, so I can order something new. I will be keeping the sale up for a couple of months so you can stock up for the winter.

Well.. all for now.. Hope to see you all at the store, and check out
the LOWEST prices on the internet.

HOT, HOT, HOT

HELLO EVERYONE!!!

I guess everyone knows what I mean by HOT,HOT. It is the next big thing to the other number one. The big argument on raising the Debt limit. Me.My self and I would rather talk about the weather. There is somthing I personaly can do with it, Airconditioning. But that causes a big electric bill (wooow) I mean big. And than I should worry if my SS comes to pay the bill. Life is not getting any easier, I hope the younger retires that are behind us, are prepared. They need to put there 401K into a Ira now and save what they can, and get out of debt now. I think I am threw venting now, so back to sewing business.

The fabric I posted above Danelle, is on sale For $2.95, I lowered the sale price on the special sale fabrics. Come September there will be big changes at the store, so come back and check it out. You will save on some old and new fabrics.
I will be posting some new Jewelry too, I have to get them photographed, and a few Items I made like backpacks for school. Young or us older ones going to school for new training.

I might post early and let everyone know what is going on!!

Everyone stay cool and be careful in this heat..
Thanks Connie at....    www.ctheworldofquilting.com

Summer is Here!!!

Did I mention it is summer!!

Well we here in Wisconsin have had a verity of different weather, from Tornado's to sever thunder storms. From 40% to 90%. But I think summer is here. Things are slow at the store too, so People are out side doing summer things. So I under stand that our sewing will slow down, even I have not had the time to work on my UFO's.

I want to let everyone know I have some beautiful Paisley and flower fabric's available for those summer projects. And if you have not visit the store lately I have custom jewelry  too.
So stop by after all those summer activities, sit back and Cruz the web store.
www.ctheworldofquilting.com  

Here in Milwaukee we have Summer Fest, and State Fair. There are a dozen or so different kinds of fest, like German Fest, Mexican Fest, too many to mention. Summer Fest is the BIG one. I have gotten too old to even try to walk them, so I am content to stay home and relax and be cool.

Well this is a short Blog to day, so have fun all.
Thanks Connie @ CTWOQ

IS SUMMER TIME HERE ??

Hi..Everyone!!!

Yesterday was our first hot day this year, upper 80's. I think we went from winter to summer and skipped spring. If it was'nt for the rain I would think we had no spring. Now I turned on the air conditioning, and I do not want to go out side. I am so comfy that I can get my computer work done and Jewelry, quilting and anything else in the house done. I even put some flowers out on the patio while it was still cool out and now they are looking pretty.  I love flowers and plants, so my little garden is just the thing for me. One window box and a couple of large pots.

I put some flower fabric up top to show off for summer.  I realy have some pretty prints in my fabric of flowers that you would love, check them out...  www.ctheworldofquilting.com 

You have to check out the 3 new Jewelry set's I put on the web store, and 3 more for later.

Look on the right and check the sale fabric, they have flowers. Hope to see you at the store and check out the Books on sale too.

Has anyone ever read my funny, funnys on the Home page, I save the funny emails I get from the Bee Hive Guild I am associated with, and some are realy good. I also list the name of the persons that wrote them. I have a link at the bottom of the Home page to see what the Bee Hive is all about, Enjoy the visit.

Well all for now, keep on making those beautiful quilts, and come by for a visit some time.

Thanks  Connie @ CTWOQ

APRIL IS HERE..

Hi.. Everyone

I hope everyone has been sewing, with the weird weather we have been having, many have been stuck in the house. So sewing is a good way to help time to go by faster. unless all the children are in the house, getting in the way. I know how that is, now my daughter is in that situation. Five, 4 boys and 1 girl. Wheeeww..I do not know when she can find the time, and she works part time. She is a very determined lady, and I admire her for it.

Well as you can see above, I have some pretty New fabric at the Store. Come and check it out, there are 5 new prints. Soft greens,beige and a dusty pink. I like them for those comfy quilts that are easy on the eye's.  www.ctheworldofquilting.com

I am still working on the Crum quilt and will post some squares as soon as I can. I can not wait to see the different mixed colors, and shapes go together. I have more UFO's (unfinished objects.)

This is going to be a short post, I have had a long day, so I am hitting the sac.
Thanks for checking out the blog and hope to get some comments.

NEW! Project at CTWOQ (Jewelry)

 
 Hi everyone..

Something New and Different at CTWOQ
I know this is a little unusual and very different for a quilting person, but some close friend's that I do beading with thought what I make was pretty good. I think it is just ok!  But I decided to put them up on my web store as I make them, and see if people out there would be interested enough to buy them.

If you go to the store and look on the Information/Jewelery page and see if there is one that catches your eye. If you click on the Shopping Cart, you can see them large and close up. I also have a few designed for our young ladies, so Mom can pick one for them too! www.ctheworldofquilting.com
There are Fabrics on sale at the store, WaterColor Etchings are Beautiful shades of Lavender, Blue, Yellow, now $3.95 a yard. Come check them out!
www.ctheworldofquilting.com  The sale starts today.

I wonder did anyone notice that there are 28 days in this month, time is going so fast. The days are short the weeks are fast and now the month is short. Can we keep up or what!!
I am trying to work at my UFO's , unfinished objects but I always find other things to do. I also have Face Book, and I haven't posted since when???  Time is just to short for me, and they tell me I am retired... I don't think so... Would love to see everyone or one at the store if possible, I love visitors.
I will post a different Jewelry as often as I can.
You really need to come check out the Web Store, My prices are sooooo.. reasonable.

Thank you all      Connie @ CTWOQ

Starting the New Year

 Hi.. to all the sewer's out there! I do not know about you but here in Wisconsin the weather is back to it's mixed up self.
Now it is cold and snowy, most people that live here say that is normal. I feel it should be one way or the other, cold, snow, spring summer. We do not have a lot of warm or hot weather any more. This is not the best subject sooooo... moving on.

Well Back to sewing and quilting, has any body started a new project
lately?? I am trying to work on my UFO'S. I am also working real
hard on my new project, the Crumb Quilt. I am at sandwiching the
Squares and then I can start quilting the individual squares. I ended
up with pinks,burgundy,green,brown,red,blacks. It is going to be
a queen size and I think I will give it a border between 4 and 6 inches wide. I will post a picture soon..

I had to post this Number Weird thing I seen on the quilt guild I am in called the BeeHive. That I listen more to then post. I love to read their funny funny's (I call them), but this is not so funny as it is weird.  Here goes..

This year we will experience 4 unusual dates....1/1/11, 1/11/11, 11/1/11, 11/11/11.....Now go figure this
out.. take the laste 2 digits of the year you were born plus the age you will be this year and it
WILL EQUAL..  111 !
THIS IS SO STRANGE....NO MATTER HOW U DO IT ITS 111.

Ok!!! what do you think of that???  WEIRD, WEIRD!!

Sewers.. I would like to see you at the store, the fabric I have above is one of five that is on sale at the store so come check it out. There are books, notions and more. I would like to see International customers too!!
