Panelling.... passé? Or trendy?...

Or ... have you looked at quilt panels lately? ...they might surprise you!


This is a quilt panel...a Happy Birthday Banner when some work is added to it, but it starts as a panel.  Mrs Pugsley's Emporium Inc has been fortunate to price all the panels in stock at $9.95 each.  Most panels are the width of fabric and 60cm wide. 

Sometimes there are individual panels and sometimes, like the banner one, they come in on a bolt.  They never look like much on the bolt because you can only see a small piece at time.  Mrs P's does have a selection of children's, wildlife and Asian inspired panels in stock, along with a few odd and quirky ones. 

Asian inspired includes but is not limited to....

Children's Inspired panels include....


General ones (as above) or characters ( as below)...



And Wildlife includes....



And some odd ball ones...


Day of the Dead and a Family Tree or....


Quilt Labels!  

Panels are a way to have a main focus in your quilt.  As you can see, they provide a starting place.  You may put some batting and a back on and you can now hand or machine stitch the outlines.  They make a fun and easy baby quilt.  They are a great beginner project to practice your stitching techniques on, but don't overlook them as your techniques grow.  Some have great colours or printed blocks that you can expand out into a more elaborate quilt top or wall hanging. 

Come in and explore the panels in stock or call/email to look for something in particular!  Pictures can be emailed of what is available at any given time. { 902-661-4260 }  or mrspsamherst@gmail.com 

On a personal note, I'd like to thank Karen who manned the shop last week while I was off piping. It was a fantastic opportunity for me.  


Have a grand day!
