Another issue is almost ready!

The July issue of American Quilt Retailer is at the mailing house and will go off first class on Friday, July 3! This issue includes a six-page Spring International Quilt Market Spotlight with dozens of new product ideas. Also, for the first time we are offering two FREE-to-use patterns. “Speedbumps,” a version of the old zig-zag pattern is in the magazine. You can see it here on the cover behind the comfy fabric chair. Then “Pillow Speedbumps,” the pillow on the cover chair, will be available online to our paid subscribers next week. The pillow is made of white, 3/4-inch rick rack and one of the natural linens from Moda’s French General “Rouenneries.” In this issue we also talk about gifts, children’s clothing, learning from reading designers blogs and marketing pre-cuts. There is so much more, but you’ll have to wait ’til your copy arrives next week!
