What's New at CQ 7/5/22
 Dear Friends, We are trying to expand our classes, and need input from you! Let me know what kind of classes you want to see offered! Instructors: if you are interested in teaching a class at Capital Quilts, please let me know. Already, we have someone who wants to teach a multi-session class on using EQ8, provided we can round up enough students. Our first themed event is coming up: the Baby Shower on July 23rd. In this class, you will make a diaper bag, burp cloths, bibs, and a changing pad! What a thoughtful gift for new parents. What other themed events might you like? Happy Sewing! -Marianne |

CQ Cares (Community Sewing Projects) |
Help us to provide placemats to Iona House! We have kits available at the shop, please stop by to pick up one (or two). For those that want to sew from their stash, click on the picture for the beginner-friendly Charm Square Placemats pattern, or you can use your own pattern.  Please return all completed placemats to Capital Quilts. Thank you for your continued support of the Capital Quilts Cares program. |
We have free pillowcase kits available! We donate all pillowcases to Ryan's Case for Smiles, who in turn distributes them to children battling serious illness. Pick one up next time you're in the shop, then complete it and return on your schedule.  |
We also have free small kennel quilts kits available. These little quilts are sent to shelters who take in pets displaced by natural disaster. To quilters, they are a great beginner project, a use for leftover fabric, and a place to practice free motion skills. To use your stash, visit www.kennelquilts.com  |
