    Harmony is here, and Carolyn Gavin is coming

    We're excited to announce that we're going to have a creative evening with Carolyn Gavin on October 5 at 6:00 PM in the shop at 1992 Danforth Ave. 

    Carolyn is a Toronto artist and illustrator whom I've been following for years. She started Ecojot with her brother and their journals and planners, all with covers illustrated by Carolyn, are environmentally sustainable, a pleasure to use and gorgeous. I've been writing in them since they first came out about 20 years ago, and we have a great collection in the store. 

    Please join us for an evening with Carolyn and hear about her creative process, see some of her art, the wonderful fabric collection and the Ecojot journals. We'll have some terrific prizes too! Let us know if you're planning to attend.

    Nightshade Deja Vu

    We got the second annual Deja Vu collection from Tula Pink. This time she is updating Nightshade, originally released in the 2011/2012 season and a big favourite with collectors and fans. 

      

    Nightshade is about three fictional sisters, each with their own special "powers". Trust Tula to come up with an engrossing back story. You can read her original inspiration on her blog here

    New Remnant Packs are Available

    We make up remnant packs in 350 gm bags. That's usually about 1 3/4 yards worth of fabric, although its definitely not an exact measure. We put like fabrics together either on a colour palette or a design theme. 

    We've been adding to our remnant packs so take advantage of this opportunity to get a little boost for your stash or to put together a fun project.
