owen's olivia UNIQUE quilt shop sale and Bobbie Lou's Fabric's new website

owen's olivia unique quilt shop SALE!  Modern, baby quilts at a discount.



Hello!!  I wanted to quickly let you know that I will be having a unique shop sale HERE ON THE BLOG.  I highly value my quilts and the hard work that goes into them, so discounts are rare.  If there's a quilt of mine you have been eyeing, this week would be the time to grab it.   It will be a first come, first serve sale, and the sale applies to all in stock quilts.  I should have the 7 quilts up above listed.

This sale is kind of unique because of the purpose behind it.  I'm offering buyers the chance to name their discount.  It can be anywhere from 0% to 25% off the retail price.  Some of you may know I have been working really hard these past few months.  Well, actually since October, and the word hard is an understatement!  I am working on my first quilting book, which will release next fall of 2015.  I could not be any more excited, but there are many costs involved - from batting, to fabric, to thread, to even child care so I can attend to the quilts that will make this book happen.  This was definitely not what I had in mind about how to announce such an amazing blessing, but it is what is.  Time to embrace it.

Through your purchase, you will be supporting my new endeavor.  There will be many more new quilts to add to the shop after all the craziness winds down, but discounts are rare because of the work and time involved in quilt making.  By helping me, I help you have something totally fabulous, special, and well made.  Handmade.  In the USA.  (Quilts are machine pieced, but all the cutting, ironing, and prepping and piecing qualify as handmade to me :)

It makes me happy to see an owen's olivia quilt in a person's home, and I want to see more of my quilts in people's homes.  Hopefully, this unique sale will provide a way for that to happen as well as help offset the costs of being a creative author.  A win win if I must say.  A new quilt?  Love it.  Use it.


How it will work:

All this information will be repeated the day of the sale.  

You will need a Paypal account to pay me.  It's free to sign up.  Once the post goes live, if you see a quilt you want, EMAIL me at owensolivia at hotmail dot com with the discount of your choice.  First to claim with a Paypal address and pays within 24 hours will get the quilt.  I'm more than happy to have a wait list on quilts if payment falls through with the first buyer.

I also offer layaway.  Say whaaat??  Who does that??  Me!  If you need to break up the price into two payments, I can do that.  You will be invoiced a month later from the time of the first payment.  A $15 fee will apply.

Quilts will ship about a week after your purchase.  Shipping in the US will be $17, and anywhere outside of the US, the invoice will be adjusted accordingly when I find out where it is going to.  Quilts are made in a smoke free, pet free home.  They are made from high quality cottons and are washed and ready to go!


The sale will go live here on the blog June 12th at 12PM EST and will run until June 30th.  That's a long sale!!





I also wanted to let you know that my wonderful sponsor, Bobbie Lou's Fabric Factory, has launched a new website that is worth checking out!



Here are some great features.


  • Free shipping on orders $50 or more
  • Search fabrics by color, style, manufacturer, designer, or new arrivals
  • Cool new swatches available!  You can create a virtual design board listing the fabrics you have picked.  You can see how your selections look together.  
If you are a fan of graphic prints like I am, you will love her shop.  She has a great selection of fabrics from manufacturers you love.  

Have a great week!!

  1. Oh my gosh, Nancy! I'm so excited for you about your book that will be coming out! No wonder you have been so crazy busy. How long have you been planning on making a quilting book? Are you publishing through a company or self publishing (I'm not sure how publishing works)? I can't wait to hear all about it!
