It is the end of another long strange year, and we are also saying goodbye to Barbara Walters along with 2022. There is something very bittersweet about Ms Walters bowing out on this New Years Eve. Those of you who grew up with her, will understand.
This week we’ve saved the best for last, with some of the most dramatic and gorgeous fabric designs of the year. This bodes well for 2023, and I promise we will have a fantastic curated selection of beautiful fabrics each week in the coming year. I should know….I have already chosen fabrics shipping over the next several months! As usual we are following the color and design trends, to make this your one-stop-shopping for those with refined contemporary tastes. As I review the collections in the pipeline for early 2023, I feel like a kid in a candy store!
Paul and I would like to take this time to thank you again for supporting our family-owned business. As we approach the end of the third year of the pandemic, with all its challenges for small businesses, we are proud to have maintained our non-profit program, including our sponsorship of many quilt exhibits that would not have been seen otherwise. Your support allows us to support conservation and endangered species projects, and also to pay for food, medical supplies, disaster relief, and relief for refugees. Your quilt donations have been distributed to fire and hurricane victims, and to Ukraine refugees, through our partnership with Mission of Love.
Next year, together, we will reach a total of $2 million raised for non-profits. We love that we can share this accomplishment with all of you who have made this possible.
This is my bright star going into 2023 – that together we have truly made a difference for so many in need.
Wishing you a creative joyful New Year!
