COTTON FIELDS NEWS - February 2012
2012 SHOP HOP NEWS -
We all had a GREAT time, with more participants than ever before. Grand prize winners will be posted soon. The
winners of the Cotton Fields daily drawings for gift bags worth in excess on $50 that each included two books, one batting,
one pattern, one panel, fat quarter pack and more were Rae Stumpf, Teresa Manning, Melba Boyd, and Marty Dzioba.
Kona Bay Fabrics just sent us some beautiful new fabric from the Tranquility
Collection. Here's the main print - come and see the other five that go with it!

Batting Reminder: We carry Quilters Dream Batting in cotton and polyester in
sizes from craft to king. We even offer it in a "Runner Roll", 18 inches wide, sold by the yard, for placemats
and runners. Orders from this company arrive quickly, so let me know if you have a special need. Once you've tried
it, you won't want anything else. We can special-order wool, silk/bamboo blend and charcoal gray, too.
We also carry Thermore (the thinnest batting on the planet) in queen size.
