    We here at Quilt N Go just love new books and notions. We feel so lucky to be around them everyday we
    work. We do realize, however, that our customers can’t always afford to buy every single new book and notion
    that comes out! So we have decided to help you narrow down what books and notions are really great to put on
    your MUST BUY list. Each newsletter a member of our staff will review a new book or notion.
    This book has some great projects
    (9) for your little one. The fabric
    that goes with the book looks like
    an I Spy quilt and there is very
    bright colored panel blocks. The
    baby quilts in the book use the
    panel blocks of beez. The beez in
    another of the quilts is appliquéd.
    Several of the projects use the
    jumbo rick-rack that we carry.
    How fun is this!!
