HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!!!

Good Day Everyone!

First and foremost, I want to take a moment to thank all the brave people all over the world in all branches of our military for the unstinting loyalty, bravery and heroism they portray each and every day on behalf of those of us still here at home.   To their families and all who love them, we want you to know that we remember them and thank them for all the sacrifices they have made on behalf of all citizens of the United States of America.  WE WILL NOT FORGET!!!!

Now, for a few more mundance matters in our quilting world.  First off, the Mother-Child class that was scheduled for last Saturday, May 19th was cancelled due to scheduling conflicts.  For all those people interested in taking this class, we will be scheduling it for Saturday, August 11th from 9:30 - 11:00.  The price will be the same, $15 per pair.  We need to know you will be taking the class no later than Wednesday, August 8th. 

We also have a Beginners Quilting Class beginning Saturday, June 23rd through Saturday, July 28th, except for the July 4th weekend.  This five week class is for those who have always wanted to try quilting, but haven't yet.  We will begin with the basics of piecing, piece several different types of blocks and piece the blocks together to make your first quilt top.  We need a minimum of 3 participants for this class to go ahead as scheduled (maximum class size is four persons), so call and let us know you are interested no later than Wednesday, June 20th.  If you have signed up and we don't have enough participants, we will call and let you know either Wednesday afternoon or Friday morning. 

Don't forget the Tennessee fabric challenge from last Fall's Shop Hop.  The projects are due to us for judging no later than June 1st.  Since Carousel Krafts is closing their doors, anyone who was going to submit projects there are welcome to bring them to me.  When you are in the shop, make sure and vote for your favorite. 

For all our loyal Saturday clients, we wanted to let everyone know that we will be closing at 12:00 p.m. this Saturday, May 26th.  We have a class scheduled on the new long-arm quilting machine program for us, and boy are we excited!!! 

Also, in case anyone is still in need of Bradley tomato plants, stop by and see us.  The cups are $1.00 each and these tomato plants are large ones, so stop by and see our selection. 

Again, thanks so much to all our loyal customers, and have a HAPPY AND SAFE MEMORIAL DAY weekend.
