Givin' a little blog lovin' to BLOGLOVIN'

In case you don't know, here is the best way to follow all your blogs in one place: BLOGLOVIN'

This is an essential tool to quickly seeing everything that is new and newsworthy in the quilting and sewing world (or any world for that matter).

If you have not done so, go quickly to www.bloglovin.com and set up an account for yourself.
Then, ADD  http://henryglassfabrics.blogspot.com/ as your first blog to follow.

What you will get everyday, on your phone if you download the Bloglovin' app, or online when you go to the site, is a running roll of all the blogs you follow. You can read them right there and then, or you can Save them for later. You can Mark as Read so they don't show up in your feed again, and you can search out other blogs that may interest you quite easily.


Here is a screenshot of a running feed. It has just the first few lines, plus a picture from the blog so you get an idea if you're interested to read further. .




Now, after you have gotten BlogLovin' set up, and are really wanting to add your favorite quilting blogs to it, I have curated a list of over 500 blogs of quilters, sewers and crafters that we follow on BlogLovin' to give you a head start. 

You are welcome to use the many hours of curating efforts we have spent to start your own blog feed on BlogLovin'.

If you are interested in my list of over 500 blogs of quilters, sewers and crafters, just comment below, with a YES. Only the first 50 people will get this list. But you are welcome to share it with your friends as much as you would like.  After I send you the list, I promise I will delete your email address.

"A Flair For Fabric" Blog Hop - Amy Hamberlin & Shop Talk!



Today, another talented Henry Glass designer, Amy Hamberlin of Kati Cupcake Pattern Co. is the guest blogger on this blog hop. You can check out her post here. She has a fresh and sweet palette. Her project for "A Flair For Fabric" is a lovely project that is quick to piece together and can show off a lot of fun fabrics all in one project.


For those of you who are new here, Martingale has been hosting this amazing blog hop for our book, "A Flair For Fabric" and all of our designers plus American Patchwork & Quilting are going to be sharing their reviews and inspiration.

The posts will feature a quilting tip and most days there will be fabric and book giveaways. We have bundled up a ton of fabric and they are all ready to go!

Today is Small Business Saturday. We encourage you to shop at your local quilt shop today and always. Having a local quilt shop enables you to have a first hand feel for the fabric. It's great inspiration and we quilters and crafters are a tactile bunch. We at Henry Glass & Co. love our quilt shops. We want to share the stories of those quilt shops who buy our fabrics and to inspire you to continue to support your local shop. If you are a quilt shop that carries Henry Glass fabrics, let us know! We want to let the world know about you. [If you are not a shop owner, let your quilt shops know too!] Details below.


Have a great weekend!
