Inventory Reduction Begins!

The countdown to inventory begins. We don't want to count it, so it is on sale through the end of the month. The discount is equal to the date, so today, you receive 15% off on regular price fabric.

Let It Snow!

I can't decide if it's raining or snowing, but I can hear it hitting the side of the house. I just posted on facebook and now it's going on the blog. In order to keep me from doing bookwork, if you call and order $100 in gift certificates, in any increment, you will receive a $20 one for free. You can give this one as well, or keep it for yourself. Our toll-free number is 888-665-7841. Hope to hear from you!

Last 1st Saturday

Tomorrow is the last first Saturday class for 2009. We were discussing how long we've been doing this. We think it was 2000. The colors were blue and yellow. Let me know if you know when we started. The 2010 colors are going to be a choice of red/white or black/white. The ladies that come and sew on Thursdays, worked on sample blocks for our 2010 quilt. They all have a star motif and turned out very pretty. Thank you Norma, Janice, Mary, Shirley, Darlene and Ree!

"Stonehenge" from Northcott just arrived today. It has wonderful color combinations and textures. You'll have to see it to believe it.

Just a reminder...we can mail gift certificates to anywhere, so if someone doesn't know what to get you for Christmas, a gift certificate is one size fits all.

New fabric arrived today!

Today we received 25 new bolts of batiks and 9 more bolts of reds and whites. We are all stocked up, ready to start cutting blocks for the 2010 $5 quilt. All we have to decide is the pattern. We will keep the first one simple, maybe even a nine patch.

The batiks are fun too. Black with hot pink, black with lime green, all sorts of colors, ready for you to come see.

Come on down!

The classroom is finished! I'm on the way to the store right now to finish up and be ready to open at 9. Come and check us out. Lunch is going to be wonderful...broccoli cheese soup or black bean stoup!

Getting Ready

We've been busy getting the store ready for this weekend. Vicky and I spent yesterday, re-hanging the store. Tuesday, we will work on the classroom. Helen and Jane helped finish unpacking and Vicky got the postage on the post cards and got them in the mail.

Our 2010 Block of the Months were revealed today. We have three to choose from, or you can participate in all three. The $5 club will be a choice of red/white or black/white, with an ocean waves center medallion, a border of seminole piecing and an outside border of flying geese. The traditional block of the month is an all-inclusive club which includes borders, binding, backing and batting. The 3rd club will use Vicky's "Garden Nouveau" book and will be all applique. These selections include options for all.

Come and see the shop in all of it's Christmas glory!

Vicky's book has arrived!

Vicky's book arrived today. It is soooo pretty. Call and order yours now. We will be using it for an applique block of the month starting in January!
