Old Town! The PDF Pattern Booklet Gift-Away!

Happy February 3rd!
It's Monday, and it's one month since our Old Town Mystery reveal.
You know what that means?  I've spent oodles (such a favorite word) of time unscrambling, rewriting and getting Old Town ready in PDF booklet form for those who didn't participate along with us.
This also means that all parts and PDFs have been retired from the blog and my website.
If you missed out on the mystery this year, no worries - It's all presented to you here in a much more cohesive non-confusing format. The directions are straight forward and still contain all of the optional construction methods and all of the other hints, tricks and helps I presented all throughout our mystery time together.
This time I even included the paint chips in the pattern. It's ALL in there, even the printable paper piecing templates for the square-in-a-square star block centers, and the small flying geese for the pieced sashings.
And YES - there is introductory pricing for those who have been waiting to start their own Old Town when it was released in pattern format.
The price is already marked 25% off and is good through 2/17/25 at 11:30pm Eastern time. No coupon needed.
International customers:  Please DO NOT USE THE BUY NOW BUTTON. It uses autofill to put in your mailing address. This causes a problem with international folks as I do not ship physical items internationally.
Instead - place the pattern in your shopping cart, and go to the cart directly to choose your payment option (Which does not use autofill) Things should work fine for you this way. You do not need a physical mailing address to receive a PDF file. Just your email.
And to kick this off - let's have a Gift-Away!
I'll be drawing for 2 lucky people who will win an Old Town PDF Pattern Booklet from me and:

A Facets of Aqua fabric roll from our friends at Cotton to Quilts. And check out their selection of neutral rolls while you are there. Such a fun array of wonderful prints!


We'll be drawing for these two winners on Friday, 2/14/25 - Valentine's Day!
Good luck, everyone!
And while I have your attention - Look what has arrived from Forest Jane!
Actually, the delay is my fault as with the winter storms the week I was trying to leave for Australia and actually had to go a day early or face not being able to get out of my drive way - I spaced asking for the logos completely.

Old Town 200 pixels

Old Town 400 pixels

Old Town 650 pixels

Old Town 800 pixels

Click and Save these logos to your device to use/print however you wish. Some have printed them on fabric to use as a label.

And yes, Forest Jane has added items to the Old Town category of Forest Jane's Quiltville Zazzle Store! Proceeds from Zazzle Store purchases to toward supplies for the free sewing and crafting workshops Jane presents at her local library.  It's good people helping good people.

So many fun goodies!

And I always get a kick out of some random hunky guy wearing a tee shirt with our mystery logo on it. LOL!

I wrote this post in 2019 showing photos and the story behind how this came to be.  And then 2020 happened and Covid cancelled EVERYTHING for a time.  And now - it's time to ramp things back up again.

If ordering the mug, be sure to check out the menu to the right of the page where you can choose your size (I like the 15oz as I can the use the large cup setting on my Keurig) and the color you want your handle/inside/style to be.

Upgrading to some options include an upgrade price, and that extra charge is right there so you know what the price difference for your option is.

"The classes are growing by leaps and bounds.  I now call it a Sewing Club. I teach two sewing sessions at my library each month, a morning and an afternoon class, and there’s waiting lists for both."

"I’m doing crochet and knitting club also, being asked to do it at different libraries."

"A whole bunch of pictures of us making keychain snap wallets. I accept children as young as 9 if a parent stays with them, teens can get dropped off and come on their own. I love seeing the moms and kids working together!"

"Thanks to Quiltville individuals and my guild in Memphis, I don’t have to worry about fabric for any of the classes. I appreciate anyone who’s mailed yarn or fabric!"

"Having a small fund to draw on from the mystery items means I can provide the “cool stuff” that makes the projects look professional, like colored snaps, zippers, lanyard hardware, key rings, interfacing, etc."

You can also reach Jane by email HERE.

With each purchase you make, you are helping a little girl make her first Kleenex cover, or a mom and daughter learn to make microwave bowls, or some gentlemen make key chains.  

At no cost to them.  And the blessings are without measure in return.

SO please, grab your Quiltville Old Town goodies and know that you are doing something GOOD by sharing the love of creativity with others.

What's up for me today?  Retreats resume starting Wednesday!

I've got stuff to do to get ready at the inn...and the sewing machine is beckoning.

I'm ready to start this week.  Are you?

Quiltville Quote of the Day -

This made me giggle after my recent lost suitcase debacle and how I was on pins and needles just hoping it would arrive intact with all of my fabric goodies within.

Hello, Monday - let's go.
