GET READY! Brown Bag Mystery kits go on sale February 1, 2023

We are so excited to be a participating store for the Brown Bag Mystery 2023, along with over 50 other stores in the US & Canada.

What is Brown Bag Mystery and how does it work? Purchase a bag online or in-person and inside you’ll find 5 cuts of fabric, totaling 6 1/2 yards. Bags are available starting February 1, 2023. The first of 5 clues come out March 18, 2023, and every two weeks after that. The 5th and final clue give you the big reveal to create a quilt top measuring 52″ by 68″. New this year, buy 2 bags and get a queen size quilt 84" x 84". You can add borders if you wish to make either size larger. (Border and binding fabric is not included but available for purchase)

There’s even a Facebook group to join if you desire to share your fabrics and progress with other quilters. Karen Montgomery, the designer and moderator, will feature live Facebook events to help you along the way. We just need the email address that you use with Facebook to add you to the group.

We are now an official dealer for Arrow and Kangaroo Sewing Furniture. Kangaroo Cabinets feature plenty of usable storage space that will help keep your sewing or quilting space organized and functional. Kangaroo cabinets offer affordable, quality cabinets for small to medium-sized sewing machines. Arrow is the exclusive manufacturer and distributor of the Kangaroo Cabinet line in North America.
