Posies & Patches

Welcome to Our New Garden of Colorful Quilts—Posies and Patches from The Quilt Gardener

View a Sneak Peek of Posies & Patches in the Member area of FabShopNet.com.

We’re sure your customers will love the colorful new garden-themed quilts in the latest FabShop Club Program!

Each of the 12 featured quilts will have your customers quilting a garden in no time. Your customer can chose from two sizes – lap or queen – in a colorway of ‘her’ choice. Yardage requirements are provided by value to help her find her fabrics with ease, and she can select her fabrics the day she signs up for the class. You’ll sell ‘yards’ of fabric!

While each quilt is also ‘scrap friendly’, your customers will still need all of those other goodies – borders, sashing, backing, binding … so no matter how you run your program, you will sell lots of fabric, and your customers will be happily growing their quilts!

The complete program for Posies and Patches from The Quilt Gardener is available on a single CD. Print it for your own program notebook, then download and print class materials as need.

Here’s what you’ll find on the CD:

• Clearly illustrated, step-by-step directions for 12 different quilts in two sizes each. Each quilt is designed and colored to reflect a particular style of garden—from Victorian to Everblooming Perennial, to Easy-Care Gardens…and 9 more.
• Directions for a bonus “Wildflower Garden Sampler” created from an extra block the customer makes each month from a pre-planned colorway—an opportunity for you to kit and sell the makings for one more quilt at the beginning of your program.
• Marketing and support materials to download and print in your newsletter as well as for ads, invitations, announcements, and in-store signs. We’ve done the work—all you is print and distribute or display!
• General information for planning and executing a successful yearlong program in your shop or online.

Like all of the FabShop yearlong clubs, you print what you need when you need it. Use this program as many times as you want to draw customers, new and old, into your shop for fun and happy hours of stitching. And don’t forget to encourage quilt completion for “Show and Tell in the Garden” at each ensuing session. A special prize drawing for show-and-tell participants will compel them to finish quilts—and that means a ringing cash register when they purchase finishing materials.
