Spring is all about color and we’ve got some great new spring color for you!
Get a whole rainbow of color with Shade Cascade from Blank Textiles. Each cut of fabric gets you four shades of that color. We have 11 different colors of Shade Cascade. Blank Textiles offers a free pattern designed especially for Shade Cascade.

Next, we have the rich colors of Symphony by Moda. Designed by Sentimental Studios, Symphony showcases some unusual and lush floral and textural prints. We have fat quarter bundles, Layer Cakes, Jelly Rolls as well as yardage of several of the prints.

Don’t forget, Mom LOVES to quilt!

Lots of new fabric has been arriving at Guildcrafters. We now have a great selection of Moda charm packs, Jelly Rolls and Layer Cakes (40 - 10″ squares of fabric) and many great patterns designed especially for these products. Jump-start a great spring project now!
Just a fabric highlight for today–we’ve received Calais from Blank Textiles.


Now, we are especially excited to show you some fantastic thread we are now carrying. It is Hemingworth PolySelect thread. Hemingworth’s patented spool and cap system helps keep your thread tidy and free of dust. Designed with machine embroidery in mind, these threads are also WONDERFUL for machine quilting and hand and machine applique. We have tested Hemingworth PolySelect for machine quilting and were thrilled with the results. Stitch quality and definition were excellent, and the thread has a lovely sheen. It is silky without being too slippery. We have many shades of solids (including neons), several variegated colors and several metallics (we have all the colors that Hemingworth currently offers in variegated and metallic). The price for 1000 yards is also amazing! We can’t say enough good things about Hemingworth thread. Do come in and see it for yourself. We think you’ll agree it is a great addition to our thread selection.
