What is Etc?

June 28, 2010 by batiksetc 1 Comment

Etc for Batiks Etcetera is lots of printed, gourmet cottons, threads, notions, Pfaff Sewing Machines, art quilt supplies, and etc!  Little by little we have been adding other items to the website so we can be a one stop shop.  If you get a chance to stop by the shop on your travels, you will be surprised at all the other fabrics we have.  Of course, the batiks are overwhelming and ever changing.

Two new groups have arrived that are really fun and great for Holiday giving ideas.  Holly Taylor’s new group, Northwoods Botanical has the greatest stripe along the edge of the panel. Robin made great use of the fabrics in our fat quarter pack adding a little more light and created all of these projects.  She used Holly Taylor’s book, Northern Botanical.  Anna arranged the goodies and took this great photo.  I love the notebook cover with the pen pocket on the outside.  I might actually be able to find a pen!

Also notice all the great rick rack used. Where do you get it?  Why right here on our website!

In town, when people ask where someone got something they say “Down to the Sew What”.  I’ve always loved that expression!    Sew What Fabrics was our first name before we bought Batiks Etcetera.

Also new is 3 Sisters, Park Avenue from Moda.  We have a beautiful kit, fabrics, jelly rolls, charm packs, and a fat 1/8 pack.  I love to do 9 patches and the way two sizes are used in this design is brilliant.  And 9 patches on point are so much more fun.
