Hi friends, Penny here. Yes, the penguin. Jenny let me have the keyboard again (she says she supervised, and we will let her believe that).
Something just landed in the shop, and I waddled over the moment I heard the word Rockies. If you have ever stitched with a view in your heart... a mountain, a state line, a place that raised you or called you... this one is for you. Sound familiar?
Where You Quilt Is Part of the Story
That is the whole idea behind our TRAVEL - Stitchin By State collection. We quilters do not stitch in a vacuum. The places we live and love find their way into our work whether we invite them or not (the colors out the window, the roads we drive to guild, the mountains we grew up under). Stitchin By State exists so you can wear that on your sleeve. Literally.
Meet the Colorado Arrival
The newest resident of the collection is the Stitchin in Colorado: Elk in the Rockies ~ Relaxed Fit Tee. An elk, standing tall against the Rockies, made for the quilter whose heart lives at altitude. I am a penguin, so my loyalties technically lie with colder climates, but even I have to admit... that elk has presence.
And because comfort is not negotiable in a sewing room, it is a relaxed fit tee that lives in our ๐โ๏ธ Super-Soft Lightweight Tees โ๏ธ๐ family. The kind of tee you put on to baste one seam and then... somehow it is midnight and you are still wearing it. No judgment. That is the correct way to use a tee.
Who This Is For
Made for the Colorado quilter, of course. But also for the quilter who left Colorado and misses it, the quilter who road-trips there every summer with a stash-friendly suitcase, and the quilter whose whole design wall is secretly a love letter to the mountains. If any of that is you, you know who you are.
Where to Find It
You can spot this arrival strutting through Hot New Arrivals ~ Uniquely You Designs and Fresh Tess Just In, or head straight to Stitchin By State and see whether your state has been stitched yet.
Ready to dive in? Go say hello to the elk. Tell him Penny sent you (he will not respond, he is printed on a tee, but manners cost nothing).
Penny says: "Wear your state proudly. Or wear Colorado anyway. The elk does not check IDs." ๐ง
