• TALES OF A FOURTH GENERATION TEXTILE EXECUTIVE Blog #1, Part A: Where Did This Fabric Come From?

    Hello Studioe Fans!  I am Scott Fortunoff, the new president and sales manager of Studioe Fabrics.

    PART 2:  SNS SOUTH, UNLOADING, UNPACKING, DOUBLE AND ROLLING, BAGGING, STOCKING THE SHELVES, PICKING & PACKING AND FINALLY SHIPPING TO YOUR STORE.   Is there anybody out there? Hi!  It’s me, Scott.  I’m back!  From the multitude of comments, emails, phone calls, death threats (note sarcasm) that I have been receiving in response to my first blog installment of Tales of a 4th Generation Textile Executive, it seems quite clear that legions of quilters around the world are waiting on the edge of their seats for my next installment (note sarcasm again).  The irony of the whole thing is that my social media guru, Vanessa, keeps begging me to write the…

  • STUDIO E GOES TO MARKET!

    Kansas City was a huge success! The new lines and the booth were well received by shop owners across the country. Our new lead designer, Megan Downer, and Studio e leader, Scott Fortunoff ,  posed for a quick candid shot during one of the few moments of lull in the Studio e booth. Our booth this year featured a quilting challenge to some well known quilters to use the Studio e Essentials line of fabrics to create a piece that would be featured in the “gallery” of the Studio e booth. Here are some pictures of the wonderful pieces. Congratulations to all our quilting stars for a great show in Kansas!…

  • BIG CHANGES FOR STUDIOE AS WE MOVE TO NEW YORK OFFICE!

    Studioe Fabrics has some big changes taking place right now and we want all of our customers to be well informed of all the excitement! Since Studioe began at its debut at quilt market in 2008, the quilt shop only line has been known to be fashion forward and welcomed in the marketplace. We have made our prominence as a central figure among quilt shop owners with a flair in presenting a new twist on standard basics. For example, the Essentials line has taken black, white +red to a whole new level. So, here we are now, nearly 5 years into the game and still going strong. We are about to make the Studioeline even stronger…
