We need your eyes!
Not literally, of course... but if you could pretty please watch our Shop Tour Video on Facebook, it will help us WIN the Jaftex Corporation Shop Tour Challenge. Who's Jaftex? Only the parent company of some of your favorite fabric brands like FreeSpirit (home of Tula Pink and TIm Holtz), Blank Quilting, Henry Glass, Studio E Fabrics, A. E. Nathan, and more! Last year, Cary Quilting came in 5th place (internationally even!). If you'll remember, in April of this year, we gave away a charm pack a day on our daily videos - and the reason that we could do that is that we used all of our 5th place winnings to purchase fabric to give away! Imagine what we could give away if we WON this year? Please watch and share as many times as you'd like - every eyeball counts! :)
