    Default Attention all Thimbleberry fabric lovers!!!
    I just found out that Lynette Jensen designer of Thimbleberry fabrics is closing her shop and will no longer design Thimbleberry fabrics. See www.thimbleberries.com. This is too bad for those of us who love her fabric. I quess it is off the my LQS to stock up!

    She did say she would continue to design fabrics for RJ fabrics and write books for Landauer
    Corporation. So don't lose hope

    Our LQS and the one about 50 miles away both started putting her fabric on clearance last summer. I had heard last fall she was done.

    The owners of our LQS told us that she will design fabric for RJ Fabrics but no more BOM and she would still put out books through the company she has published for. And that she was shutting down her website and this year was the last BOM.

    There are new designers that have similar fabrics. I see fabric at LQS that I think hey new Thimbleberries! and it's another designer line.

    I love her fabric! Its one of the best quality quilting fabrics you can buy. Needs little or no ironing when it comes out of the dryer. Just has that feel good feeling.
