Check out THIS young designer!

Here's a message I received via email from one of our customers, Maria Tobiasz.

Hi, I am an aunt of the 6 yr old nephew for whom I have made 'The Rocket Quilt'. The story goes like this, last February when visiting my family, my 6 year old nephew, who is fascinated with rockets, drew on the piece of paper design for a quilt the he wanted me to make for him.In the next few months I have searched the web for rocket or rocket related designs or fabrics, visited your store several times as well, but could not find anything that would inspire me, until one day, I have stopped in you store and all was there. Beautiful fabrics that were so perfect for the design.Since, he has the quilt. He shows it to everyone who visits.

Somebody, please call Benartex Fabrics!

East Northport Stocking Challenge

Boy, the judging was VERY tough in the East Northport Pieceful Quilting Stocking Challenge. This time our participants were REALLY presented with a challenge. And they did not dissappoint. Do come in to see what our creative elves have made with the difficult raw materials we gave them . All the stockings are just fabulous and it was very hard to narrow it down to just three winners. And the winners are: Gloria S from Farmingdale won the first prize sewing machine, Claudia H from Smithtown was the second prize $100 gift certificate and Margaret K from Commack won the third place $50 gift certificate.

Gloria S.
