CRAYONS & MORE CRAYONS...

February already? WOW where does

time go?

Lot’s of new changes and new

patterns 2015. Where to begin?

Patterns: Each month we have at

least one new crayon pattern release.

February release is “In Memory of

Our Troops.” We are working on the

“Western Album Collection”

workbook. Plan to release in March.

Classes: Anyone can color on fabric.

HOWEVER, to achieve the special

effects and texture Tana has in our

patterns, we strongly recommend a

class to learn how.

We have several classes scheduled

throughout the year and they are

listed in this newsletter.

Studio: Tana is very busy outside of

the studio with classes and events. It

is not possible for her to be there

regularly. We did not close the

studio, but we did reduce it to suite D

only.

Clubs: We now offer Crayon Club.

Currently not having any regular

meetings. Our calendar is FULL for

2015. We are booking events for

2016.

Programs: This year we are offering

two NEW programs; “Let’s Color!”

Basic Hot Blend Techniques and

“Cops 2 Crayons” speaking about

Tana’s unique story. The programs

are scheduled each

month throughout the year. For

upcoming program locations see

inside newsletter.

Fabric Line: Western Denim & Dirt is

proud to announce that our first line

of fabric, “Western Album Collection”

by Blank Quilting is FINALLY shipping

now to your favorite quilt stores.

This year Tana will have several fabric

lines to include:

“Y’all Be Merry”

“Spooktacular Halloween”

“Western Album II Collection”

“Kountry Kiddos” Storybook

And a few more…

Tana is currently working on 2016

fabric lines to include Native

American and In Memory of Our

Troops Collections. A brand to

remember.

As soon as we receive ours, we will

have an “Open House” event so you

can come by the studio to purchase

fabric and see the original artwork.

Can’t wait? Order online today and it

will reserve your fabric.

Meet the Designer & Fabric Signing:

What is this? We are offering this

special event for Quilt stores

throughout Texas, that purchase our

fabric line and would like to do

something for their customers. We

schedule the event. Then we take the

original artwork and fabric to share

our story with our new customers.

For more details contact Tana.
