"Located in a small historic village on the coast of Maine, Alewives Fabrics has been in business for over 40 years. For the past 5 years the store has been owned by the mother and daughter team of Barbara Neeson and Rhea Daiute, both of whom are artists and big time fabric-lovers. The shop also employs 3 of the sweetest ladies ever to thread a needle. We feel very lucky to have a healthy local sewing community that supports us and enables us to carry the variety of fabrics we do. In the early Summer of 2009 we added an online store that offers the same carefully chosen fabrics you will find in our brick and mortar shop. There was a time when we would have described ourselves as "contemporary", but nowadays we like to think it is more accurate to describe ourselves as "eclectic." One of the skills we pride ourselves on is putting together fabric in unique combinations that you may never have thought would work together. We love modern designers, like Amy Butler and Kaffe Fassett, but we also love classic, timeless designs, such as toiles, tickings and stripes. Bringing together the best of Fabrics Old with the best of the Fabrics New is both our privilege and our pleasure. Put simply, we love fabric and we love our job!"
For today's giveaway, Alewives is happy to be giving away one "Gypsy Chic" fat quarter bundle. The bundle includes 20 different fat quarters from designers such as Denyse Schmidt, Kaffe Fassett, Anna Maria Horner, Laura Gunn, Heather Bailey and more.
In addtion, Alewives is offering everyone 10% off any order placed by October 31st. (Enter the code "soulemama" in the promotional code field at checkout.)
Good luck! And thank you, Alewives!
