What's New at CQ 2/21/23
 Dear Friends, Cars are loaded, nothing else can fit (no matter how hard we try), and we are off to Hampton in the morning. Don't worry -- we left plenty of interesting things behind, but we would love to see your smiling face at MAQF if you can attend. Just so you know, Harry's Introduction to Art Quilts class was a success. We hope to have some of the students' completed work on display in April. And YES! another session of his class is on the schedule for June. Happy Sewing! -Marianne |

Imagine the possibilities of sewing with this beautiful cotton fabric inspired by Laurel's love of dogs. A brightly colored pillow panel is accompanied by several bright paw print fabrics, tossed dogs, blue running yardage of dog 'blocks', and rainbow-hued words of praise.  |
To the Moon from Dear Stella features astronauts, aliens, shooting stars and UFOs, all in a very modern palette. These would be perfect in a toddler or baby room.  |

CQ Cares (Community Sewing Projects) |
We have placemat kits available at the shop, please stop by to pick up one (or two). For those who 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. Alternately, use your stash and any of the Million Pillowcase Project patterns.  |
We 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  |
