If you live anywhere but the South, it may seem totally foreign to you that today marks the beginning of our Summer Vacation. That’s right: the kids are out of school. It gets so super hot here come August that no one can even bear to be outside in the breathless air, and the lethargy is so intense by then that only air conditioning can allay the ugly effects of triple-digit heat. In May, though? It’s gorgeous, just gorgeous. So most of our school systems, in their infinite wisdom, have the kiddos getting released for their holidays by Memorial Day weekend.
In honor of this thrilling transition to days of lemonade and picnics and walks to the park and clay creatures and painting outdoors on the easel and sundresses and cookouts and all the rest, Whipstitch is putting the perfect celebratory fabrics on SALE: Anna Maria‘s Good Folks, her collection of cottons with prints that evoke all those delicious moments of happiness and family.
The entire collection–including bundles!–is 15% off over at Whipstitch Etsy from now through the end of May. Just add code VACATION in the Buyer’s Comments at checkout and we’ll refund your discount, or ask for a custom listing and we’ll calculate it in advance! And fear not: we still have yardage of ALL the Good Folks prints in stock; if you don’t see the one you’re looking for, just drop us a note and we’ll get you all squared away.
Oh, and another sale to tempt you: any purchase through the end of May for $50 or more is gets a FREE HALF YARD of your choice* with the same code: VACATION.
Please remember the postal holiday over the long weekend, by the way, and know we’ll get orders out first thing Tuesday when the Post Office is open again for business.
Have a great summer, y’all!
Oh, and congratulations go out to Anna Maria and family on the recent addition of baby #6!
