About: These
designs truly are Gifts Of Love. The designs are created from
handcrafted fabric appliques which I create through an intricate process,
which can only be described as LOVE. www.paulasgiftsoflove.com
Company Overview: Handcrafted Fabric Applique Designs. The designs you
will find here are made through a passionate creative force which
inspires me to create these timely intricate designs. It is a labor of
love. I have a variety of fashion, jackets, blouses, hoodies,
pocketbooks, hats, and scarves. These unique designs are created by a process of fusing fabric pieces together to create stun ning
designs with a dimensional look and feel. Each and every design is a
one of a kind and custom made. People seem to be amazed when they
actually see the design in person. Sometimes photos just cannot capture
the true essences of their beauty. I love creating these
designs, there is always a feeling of peace and joy while I work on new
designs. If you are interested in custom designs, please feel free to
contact me at paulagsell@fastmail.us and together we can create
something that is special to you for any occasion. I have always loved designing and fabric and have worked in many areas
of designing throughout my lifetime. At this particular point in my life I
decided to put my creative energy into action and create my very own
job for myself. A job that filled me with joy, and expressed my
authentic self. After working with different ideas ,I came across this
this unique process. I take cuts of fabric pieces from fabric yards, and
fuse the pieces together to form a design on a background fabric, such
as a blouse, or handbag, the pieces are then detailed and outlined with
fabric paints, making all my designs completely washable! . The results
of this process is stunning, there is a dimensional textured feel to all
my creations. Each piece is a one of a kind custom design. Made for
that special person who resonates with unique items. I look forward to
hearing from you, ideas and comments are always welcome.

Prairie Point Junction
Kids, this is one of my most favorite fabric shops and they also have the best wool and supplies. I don't even dare mention PPJ to dearhubz, he just shakes his head and asks if I really don't have what I need. Hee Hee, foolish man, we will never ever have enough fabric and wools. I just smile sweetly, bat my eyes and shake my head "NO".
Prairie Point Junction not only carries fabulous fabrics with great prices and all the notions you might need, they are also home of Wool Felt Central If you have never done any work with wool, this is the place to go to get every item you might need, including patterns and kits.
I asked Julie Geiger some questions and here are her answers.
What inspired you to open your fabric and wool shop?
Prairie Point Junction, home of Wool Felt Central, has
been open for 13 years. I've loved fabric all my life. After a few
years teaching in the public school system, I decided to take a leap and
combine my passions for retailing, teaching and fabric to open a quilt
shop. We're proud to have been featured as a Top Ten Shop in American
Patchwork and Quilting's Quilt Sampler magazine, Fall 2005.
What is your favorite area in your shop?
One of my favorite areas of our shop is Wool Felt
Central. We carry 98 colors of wool blend felt plus an assorted of 100%
wool textures. I love how versitle wool felt is. It can be used for
so many things including ornaments, stockings, penny rugs, pillows,
pincushions, faux foods, costumes, and so much more. Wool felt is also a
great portable project, so perfect for someone on the go.
What do you most want for Christmas this year?
For Christmas I'd love to find an ipad under the tree.
If I'm not at the sewing machine, I'm usually attached to the computer,
so an ipad would be great. I've quickly become quite addicted to
Pinterest, so this would make it easy to search for inspiration wherever
I go. (Hope Santa is listening!)
I asked Julie if they were having any sales during Black Friday and/or Cyber Monday and look what she responded with!
Special Offer to Entrants Only: We typically offer our best site-wide sale early in
the fall instead of during the hustle and bustle of Christmas. We'd be
