Shop Hop starts Saturday.....

Afternoon Everyone!

As you can imagine, it has been a busy week making final preparations for the Middle Tennessee Shop Hop.  It starts on Saturday, September 24th and runs through Saturday, October 1st.  Come visit all the participating quilt shops and get your passports stamped for a chance to win a brand new sewing machine.  The Shop Hop fabric is one that has been designed specifically for this Shop Hop and will only be available from the seven stores participating.  The second place winner from the passport drawings will receive a 5 yard cut of this material (a greater than $50 value) for free.  It makes spending all day perusing you neighborhood quilt shops that much greater when FREE is involved!  What fun!!!!!

We will have various 25% off specials during the Shop Hop all the way through October 8th, including our finished lap and bed sized quilts.  Also, your goodie bag of candy will have a percentage discount coupon inside for discounts on our regular priced merchandise during the Shop Hop.  These goodie bag discounts are not valid on merchandise already discounted.  We have gotten in lots of new materials during the last week, so make sure if you have been by recently, you stop back by to see what all is new!!

We are going to be setting up a website in the next few months to keep everyone much better informed as to what is going on in our little quilting heaven.  To this end, we will be collecting e-mail addresses during the Shop Hop for future use with our web site.  If you are interested, please either fill out the goodie bag coupon with the information, or sign up on the clipboard at the front desk while you are checking out.  All Shop Hop participants who's information we have will be entered into a drawing for our store's Shop Hop grand prize drawing at the end of the Shop Hop.  So please, fill out those coupons so we can contact you if your name is drawn.  Our grand prize will be 50% off the total cost of a long arm quilting service!!!  What a great thing to have when you have a quilt that needs to get done and you can't seem to get to it (and goodness knows, most quilters have a few of those issues at any given time...).  We will also have several door prizes each day of the Shop Hop for those who pull the lucky goodie bags.  If your goodie bag coupon says you are a door prize winner, let us know at the desk and we will get your door prize for you before you leave!

We so look forward to seeing everyone at the Shop Hop this year.  If you can't make it in during the Shop Hop, however, come by when you can and we will be glad to help you in any way possible.  Have a great rest of the week and we'll see you this weekend (hopefully)!!!!!
