February 2022 Newsletter

 As you can tell we are a bit late getting this newsletter out this month.  Please forgive the slowness.

We hope everyone is doing well, enjoying our lovely Winter and the snow we need so badly.  We hope that you are getting in lots of fun quilting projects while you are warm and cozy indoors.

 We have some fun and special things coming up to look forward to.  Like a couple of new classes, repeats of a couple that have been asked for and events that will be happening.

 We would, as always like to THANK YOU for your continued support and encouragement.  AS always CASH or CHECK are preferred & greatly accepted!

April 21 – 23 WSQ Shop Hop!  We have opted to extend our SHOP HOURS just for the Shop Hop to 8:30 – 5:30 for these 3 days only to help everyone get in as much fun as possible!  Start at your favorite local shop, get your Tote Bag and Passport ONLY at the first shop.  You do NOT get a new one at each shop or each day. Then check out the specials, get your gift and raffle tickets from each shop as you visit and shop.  Remember even small purchases are greatly appreciated since all shops have to pay to participate.

  We do need volunteers to help us out for the shop hop.  Could you and would you be willing to help us with some time?

 Apr. 28  12:30 – 4:30 Book & Block “Wine Country Mystery” #3  Delayed 1 week due to the Shop Hop.

 Apr. 28 WSQ Quarterly meeting.

Space available for 5-6 quilts per month for quilting.  4 simple all over designs and 1 or 2 custom.  Quilts can be checked in between the 1-7 of each month.

 Are you into using Solids?  Did you know that we are bringing in 10 new colors per month and have been for over 8 months now?  Not your run of the mill colors either and amazing Benartex quality.  Besides these, we are always adding more new fabrics to our collection with a variety of prices. From our discount fabrics starting at about $6 per yard.  As we have promised from the day we opened….if we get it at a discount then so do you. 

 Sending appreciation, hugs and wishes for a lovely February the month of showing you care!  Happy quilting and please be healthy, happy and have fun quilting,

Jim & Twila

PS. With Casey no longer available due to his class schedule, we are looking for someone to work 1 or 2 days a week.  If you think you might like to do this, please come in to talk with us about it.  Computer and social media skills needed.
