Introducing: Beth!



A mom of two Shelties and a novice seamstress, I’m the proud new owner of FabricLovers.com. Having been taught the basics of sewing by my mother, and inspired by my mother-in-law’s ability to create beautiful hand-stitched quilts, I’ve decided to start up again. You might even be able to see my attempts at certain projects! When not working, sewing, or shopping for handbags and shoes, you can find me hiking, agility dog training, and reading by our tiny gold fishpond.

I get my inspiration for sewing projects from quilting magazines, online catalogs, and just looking around my house to see what needs updating. Now, with all this fabric around, it’s even more tempting to completely fill our home with projects like handbags, quilts, and throw pillows! 

I love my new Brother 9500 Project Runway Sewing machine!  It is great for someone who has not done any real projects for, ....well a long time.



Check out my current favorite fabrics, in stock and ready for any project!


Lobster Blues, by Michael Miller, is a lovely contrast of blue against a crisp white background. I’m thinking that it’d look great as dining room seat covers.














The Citrus Slice, also by Michael Miller, is the perfect reminder of passing hot summer days on the front porch with a large glass of cold lemonade. 

















My last favorite is Garden Magic by South Seas. Why? Simply because I adore Daisies!


Stay tuned for upcoming articles on what I’m working on, interviews with creative folks, and a lot more!

I appreciate your patience.

Thank you,

Beth

We're Being Sold = Huge Sale!

FabricLovers is being Sold!



for sale copy.jpgYes, you read that right--I have made the decision to sell the business. It's been a hard decision to make; after all, FabricLovers has been a part of my life for 6 years now, and I will miss it when it's gone. Most of all, I will miss interacting with you, my customers. I've enjoyed getting to know you through encouraging emails or cards you've sent or pictures you've forwarded of your latest projects. Thank you for being a part of my life and supporting my business!

I have the business listed for sale on an online auction site, so if you, or someone you know, would be interested in purchasing the business, please email me
privately (Sabra@FabricLovers.com), and I will get the auction information to you. It's a great business for a stay-at-home mom, and it can be done right out of your home! 

Huge Sale!


orange sale.jpgAs you can imagine, it's time to clear out the shelves for the new owner, so EVERYTHING in store is on sale. I'm starting with a progressive discount that will increase as the time gets closer to switching owners.

Right now, everything is a minimum of 15% off (don't forget, I also have items in our Clearance Section that are up to 75% off!). Your help clearing out my shelves would be so much appreciated, and a win-win for all of us! Please pop on over to the site and pick up some goodies--Thanks!

What's Next?


I'm sure some of you are interested in what will be taking up my time once FabricLovers is sold. I won't go into too much detail here, other than to say that it involves Costa Rica! You can check out my new website here: EnjoyLife4Less.com. I've also got a new Facebook Page, Twitter Account, and Pinterest Account. I would so love to have you stay in touch by either "Liking" us or "Following" us on one (or more!) of these mediums. Thanks for your support!

red heart.jpgI know--lots of big news in this post! I'd like to close it with another "thank you!" for all of your support over the past 6 years! You have truly made it a wonderful experience. I'll be in touch periodically during the next few weeks as the sales discounts continue, and to introduce you to the new owner.

Thanks again,

Sabra

Great Photo of our Purse Winner!

You might remember a while back we had an interview with Tracey Marcrum, a purse designer, who also offered a purse as a give-away. Well, we just heard back from the winner:
My name is Susan, and I was one of the people who commented on her beautiful one of a kind purses. Well, I WON !!!!!  As you can see in the picture, I was so happy when I was notified. It is even more beautiful in person than online. I would highly suggest anyone who would like to own an awesome one of a kind purse/bag to contact Tracey Marcrum who is a very talented artist. She has been around the world, comes from a family of artists, and knows her stuff. Thank you Tracey, and Thank You Fabric Lovers for the interview with Tracey.
Here's the picture Susan sent:


What a beautiful prize, and you do indeed look happy Susan!  Thanks again to Tracey Marcrum for making the give-away possible. Be sure to check out all of her one-of-a-kind purses on her website here.
