| We are excited about starting
our second year
and have many new ideas for the coming months. Programs
such as Splashy Stars Block of the Month, Thimbleberries
Block of the Month, classes for Beginning Quilters and Beginning
Hand Quilters, Embroidery groups for Brazilian and Traditional
embroidery, the Cotton Club and our Small Quilt group have
been very well received and enjoyed.
Going forward look for:
Moda University opportunities, where you can order a
quilt kit at $40 over cost. Annual fee of $10 and the
commitment to purchase 4 projects during the year will
save you tons of money on these projects. Each quarter
provides you 3 new choices of kits.
The Cotton Clubs’ new project, a nice short one
for summer, beginning in June, will feature fusible applique'.
The 30’s Club (you can be older than that to join)
will help you establish a 30’s stash, add to your
present stash, provide patterns and projects to use your
stash, and have fun with other quilters that love and
appreciate those nostalgic fabrics.
Black, Red and White Club, for those whose tastes run
to a more contemporary flavor, join this group and get
the latest out in this great line of fun prints. Patterns,
show & tell, projects and challenges, all together
in one place.
A Woven’s Club will provide you with some wonderful
textures and colors that the industry is creating for
this fabric style. From flat to nubby to whatever they
come up with next, you’ll love it all. Not for the
faint of heart, some of these fabrics are definitely in
the upper range of the price scale, but worth every penny
(well, dollar). As one of the few shops in the area with
the woven and primitive line, we urge you to gather your
like-minded friends together for this new group.
Ruth has found a fresh MYSTERY Quilt. With the purchase
of your program kit, you will receive your pattern piece
each month. Program will start in September. Complete
your project and come to the celebration party when we’re
done.
Jane’s Small Quilt club will have a new designer
this year, with more and different styles, but still small.
Jane is forever the best teacher for these quilts, and
for those who’ve lost touch, please come back and
play with us. She will have samples soon, class to start
in September.
A Blenders Club will help you expand your essentials
fabric selection.
You can never have enough of those blenders to make the
focus fabrics work for you.
Mondays have been designated as a Sew day in our classroom.
10-5. You may come for all or part of the day and work
on your projects. If you feel you’ve overextended
your project list, this is a great way to focus on completing
them.
To sign up for any of these new Clubs or Projects, call
503-263-3563, or stop by the shop
of Course! |
