L-O-V-E LOVE THESE!

Have you seen these darling "Noteable Notebooks" by All My Bags?  Taking notes or writing in a journal NEVER looked so good!  I have already purchased the pattern and I'm planning who will get these delightful notebooks for gifts this year.  Head on over to Christine's blog to see more pictures and details on this darling pattern.  Then come on in and pick a pattern up for yourself, you can even use one of the twelve discounts offered on our 12 Days of Christmas punch card (like numbers 1, 5, 6 or 12)!

Hope to see you soon!

Run Run as Fast as You Can!

Check out Mary's blog for this cute hot pad, it's made from a simple 9 patch!  Wouldn't this make a great neighbor gift!  All that's missing is a plate of cookies. Thank's Mary!

Table Tiles Tutorial

Here is a super quick project that would make a great Christmas gift.  I designed Table Tiles to use Moda's Candy Bar's but you could easily use a charm pack, perfect because  Day 4 of the 12 Days of Christmas means Buy one ‘pre-cut’, get a second ‘pre-cut’ for 50% off! 

.  I hope you enjoy!

~Sandy~

Supplies:

• 1/2 yard background fabric
• 1 Moda candy bar (2 1/2" x 5" rectangles)
• 1/2 yard backing
• 1/3 yard binding
• 18" x 45" batting

Construction:

1.  Cut background fabric to measure 18" x width of fabric.
2.  Using a water soluble marking pen or pencil draw a line 2" in from each edge.
3.  Select 8 candy bar rectangles and cut in half giving you 16 - 2 1/2" x 2 1/2" squares.
4.  Begin laying out random rectangles and squares from edge to edge as illustrated below leaving approximately 1/4" to 1/2" space between.  (The sample picture has been washed and so the spaces between tiles appear larger)
5.  Pin or glue baste rectangles and squares in place. (I used a glue stick)
6.  Layer back, batting, and runner top.  Pin together using curved safety pins.
7.  Stitch each rectangle/square in place 1/4" from raw edge which will quilt your runner as you go.
8.  Trim away excess fabric 1/2" beyond drawn lines.
8.  Bind.
9.  Wash.

 

12 Days of Christmas Celebration!

I am so excited for Christmas!  It is my favorite time of year, I love spending time with family and friends and seeing the joy a small gift can bring each person I love.  I have so many gifts to sew for Christmas, and some I haven't even started yet!  Sound familiar?  Sometimes I just want to go shopping and get a little retail therapy rather than think about everything that needs to be done, avoidance and denial will help...right?

Because of my theory, Pine Needles wants to Celebrate the 12 Days of Christmas with you.  Beginning December 1st come into Pine Needles to receive your special "12 Days of Christmas" punch card. The card contains twelve numbered ornaments that correspond with a special discount.  Each time you come into Pine Needles from now until December 24th, you can choose which of the 12 discounts you would like to use.  Once the discount has been used, we will stamp the ornament on your "12 Days of Christmas" punch card.  Here is a list of all of the FABULOUS discounts that can be used:

1.    Receive 25% off one regular priced item
2.    For every two fat quarters you purchase at regular price,
         get a third fat quarter FREE
3.    Receive 30% off any one cut of regular priced fabric
4.    Buy one ‘pre-cut’, get a second ‘pre-cut’ for 50% off
          (of equal or lesser value)
5.    Buy two patterns at regular price, and receive a third one FREE
6.    Receive $5 off a purchase of $20 or more (total before tax)
7.    Receive 50% off one Christmas pattern

We have had so many of our out-of-town and online customers want to participate in the 12 Days of Christmas, that we are going to offer it to you in this way:  call us at the store to use the 12 Days punch card.  If you would like to use more than one of the discounts, simply call each day and let us know what item and which discount you would like.  We will keep a record of your name and your orders.  We can ship each item individually, or hold them all and ship them once you are finished using the punch card.  Hopefully this will allow everyone to participate!
