Wooden Spools Quilting Knitting & More http://www.woodenspools.com Denver Quilt Yarn & Fiber Arts Shop Thu, 09 Feb 2012 21:43:52 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.5 Joan Musick Book Signing Saturday 2/11 http://www.woodenspools.com/joan-musick-book-signing-saturday-211/ http://www.woodenspools.com/joan-musick-book-signing-saturday-211/#comments Thu, 09 Feb 2012 21:32:32 +0000 Vicki http://www.woodenspools.com/?p=3474 THE MISSING FLOWER TOPS  :   THE MIDNIGHT SNACK
The Missing Flower Tops and The Midnight Snack is a two-sided book which is a mystery about flower tops that disappear.  Who (or what) is stealing the flower tops?   It is an innovative, quintessential hard cover quilter’s book as well.  Every page is delightfully illustrated with the texture and stitching of the fabric of an actual quilt.  This is a treasure for all lovers of quilts and quilting!

This wonderful two-sided storybook is for quilters and their children (and grandchildren).  Your child will see the texture of the fabrics come to life with closeup photos of their favorite animals.  Some silly things happen to our animal friends along the way. Whether your child is able to read alone or not, these stories will be enjoyed over and over.

Joan Musick will be at Wooden Spools all day Saturday, February 11th, for book signings.  She’ll have her quilt that tells the story on hand as well!  Don’t miss this fun opportunity to meet the author and pick up a great Valentine’s gift for that sweet child or grandchild!
