Welcome Christmas with us at....

 

Ocean City's Festival of Lights 2015

 

 Thanksgiving week the Fruitland shop
will OPEN only on Tuesday, NOVEMBER 24th!

We will be CLOSED the remainder of the week, November 25-28, but we will be at the Fiber Expo in Ocean City--We'd love to see you!

Charmed, I'm sure!

    We have a lot of fun with these little metal charms--the connecting rings and little lobster clasp are available, too-- so it's not just about sewing them onto something--ALTHOUGH they do look adorable as mini ornaments on our Christmas Star--

We put silver on the bright tree and gold stars or jingle bells on the traditional tree. Kits are just 13.99!

NEED IDEAS?

Oh Yes We Do Too Have Thimbleberries...

 INSTOCK Thimbleberries Christmas Patterns

There's plenty of time to finish any one of these great projects for Christmas...Quilts, Wallhangings, Pillow Pals, Stockings, and even a Tree Skirt! 

(A little bigger PIC when you CLICK on the picture!)

THIMBLEBERRIES' aren't just for Thimbleberries!

 All these projects shine with our other Christmas  fabrics...

Snowmen, trees, owls, snowflakes, holly...

...pointsettias with shiny gold or yuletide traditional.

Of Course, we also love the warm and cozy look of Thimbleberries' patterns made with Thimbleberries' fabrics!

We have a nice selection of Thimbleberries blues and autumn colors, too!

Pretty for Packages or Trees

The Tutorial says "styrofoam balls"

but why not cover old ugly shatterproof balls
