JINNY BEYER BOOK SIGNING
The visit with Jinny Beyer was quite a success! She is so gracious and pleasant, she charmed all of the customers as she signed the copies of her newest book.
FAT QUARTER FRENZY
Our Fat Quarter Frenzy is a customer favorite! This year’s event is Sunday, March 28, from 12-5 pm. All fat quarters are $1.25, no limit. No fat quarters will be cut, but we have been cutting for months, so fear not, there will be no dearth of the beauties for you to select. We will also feature a large number of fat quarter friendly patterns and books to spur your imagination.
Classroom Machines
Good news! We have purchased several Pfaff model 2058 machines exclusively for classroom use. They are sophisticated, reliable, and quite easy to use. If you need to use one of our machines we will be delighted to instruct you in threading, bobbin winding, and use of the automatic needle down, foot up program. From now on, there will be a $10 charge to use the machine in class.

BREAKFAST CLUB
This year’s Second Saturday Club begins Saturday, January 9, at 9 am. The group will be led by Joyce Hockman (with enthusiasm!) and features coffee and a breakfast treat, and the presentation of a quilt you can cope with, made of 2½” strips. Each project will come with complete directions in multiple sizes from table runner to queen sized. As always, we will have show and tell for your recent accomplishments. We plan to provide kits for the projects to speed you to completion. Additionally, if you’ve wondered what to do with your jelly rolls, rounds, and Bali Pops, this may be the answer. Club is limited to 50, so join now! 12 sessions, 1 ½ hrs. each, $48.
QUILT CLUB
Would you enjoy coming once a month to learn the tricks of a fairly simple block, mingle with other wonderful quilters, share anecdotes about your quilting (and other!) adventures, and pick up a fabric kit for this month’s quilt? Join the Quilt Club, and over the course of the year you will complete the American Beauty Quilt by Marti Michell, with fabric from Maywood. This is a perfectly lovely Queen-sized bed quilt with a light or dark variation. Click below for a picture. Donna Gemeny will lead the group, teaching important techniques, and encouraging participation throughout the process. Club membership is $48, and includes all patterns and the Template set L to be used in the block construction. American Beauty fabric is available for $19.95 per month, $239.40 for the year. Block of the Month policies are available at the shop. Members who wish to purchase the year’s kit all at once will receive a discounted price of $199.
