A Full House for Marie Bostwick!

We all had SUCH an amazing time with Marie Bostwick at her Between Heaven and Texas Book Release Party & Signing this past week at the Cabbage Rose and just had to share some of the amazing details of our special celebration for all of you who couldn't make it!!

We listened to Marie share her lovely and heart warming stories over a few true Texas favorites, Dr. Pepper straight out of glass bottles with fancy paper straws and Moon Pies! And all of our decor was really simple with some truly eye-catching fabrics on the tables to really make everything pop! If you have a party to plan this Summer, whether it be a wedding reception, a baby shower or a fun Birthday party, come into the Cabbage Rose and talk to the girls about your ideas and they'll help you come up with some fun decor ideas utilizing your favorite fabrics!

We have all of Marie's Cobbled Court Series books, and the ones we didn't sell that night she went ahead and signed for us so if you would like to purchase one of her amazing books or the whole series, they are all signed by Marie Bostwick herself!

We had so much fun with everyone who came out!! Thank you so much Marie! We just love your books and your stories and the creative spirit that you possess! You are such an incredible inspiration to us all! And thank you to all of you amazing ladies who came out to support Marie and celebrate her latest book, Between Heaven and Texas with us!!

Kimberly Einmo Workshop & GIVEAWAY WINNER!!

 

 

As you all know Kimberly Einmo was just here at the Cabbage Rose teaching her most popular workshop, Lone Starburst and my goodness did everyone have an AMAZING time! Kimberly couldn't have been sweeter or more knowledgeable and everyone learned SO much!

 

 

 

 

 

 

We totally sold out this fun event and had a shop FULL of ladies with sewing, cutting and pressing stations all over the store that Sunday!! Fabric, thread and hands were flying as everyone was working on their fabulous starburst quilt tops!

 

 

Kimberly showed some absolutely gorgeous variations of this design, I am especially loving the bottom quilt she made with Tradewinds (which is on sale right now)!! I love the play with negative space in the center accented with a bold border!

 

 

 

I don't think we've ever had so many sewing machines in the classroom at one time!! It was wonderful being able to have so many of you participate in this special workshop!

 

 

 

 Kimberly was sweet enough to do a book signing for everyone at the shop that day and as a special treat, she went ahead and signed every last copy of her books that we had in the store!! Now you can get a signed copy of Kimberly's newest book PreCut Bonanza, Jelly Roll Quilt Magic or Jelly Roll Quilts & More!! She is truly an authority on creating amazing quilts with Jelly Rolls and other Pre-Cuts so you definitely want to pick up one or more of her books. And one of her signed books plus a Jelly Roll would make a fabulous Christmas gift to one of your quilting friends or someone who's interested in learning!!

 

 

 

She also brought her amazing Rulers that work with her books and she walked everyone at the workshop through how to use them properly! You'll definitely want to pick up at least her Simpli-EZ Jelly Roll Ruler but they are all wonderful tools that you'll be thanking you're lucky stars are in your sewing tool box next time you're wanting to do flying geese or hearts!!

A huge thank you to Kimberly Einmo for all she shared and for being with us for this special workshop event! Everyone had such a great time!!

 

You're probably wondering...what about the GIVEAWAY WINNER??? Don't worry, I'm totally on it. And the winner is.....

 

 

 

 

Congratulations Whimsygal!!! We hope you enjoy your new fabric goodies from the Cabbage Rose! Thank you to everyone who participated and all of our new followers! We hope you enjoy our blog and stay tuned for more giveaways, projects and a lot more fun in the future!
