Dear fellow quilters,
I recently met with several fabric representatives and let me tell you, the new fabric that will be coming in the shop is just wonderful. The fabric feels great and the colors and designs are so bright and pretty. We have been getting in a lot of new books and patterns so be sure to stop in and see what new goodies have arrived. Remember, if there is a book, pattern or notion that I don't carry in the shop, I will be glad to order it for you. I usually received items within seven to ten days.
If it has been a while since you have been in the ship, drop in to see our beautiful sample of "Athena's Puzzle". This sample is made with batiks and is on the class list for March and April. I think you will like this one as much as we all do. Be sure to check the class schedule and sign up early.
I am trying to reduce the number of newsletters sent via U.S. post. If you receive the newsletter via post as well and e-mail, please let me know so I can drop you off the U. S. post list. You get more information on the Internet since I don't have to worry about space restrictions as much.
LOVE TO SHOP HOP

I still love this table!! It's made of Lucite and fits right around your sewing machine. It gives you a nice large working area for sewing. You can keep your book or pattern under the clear table for easy reference. If you would like to order one, we will need your sewing machine make, model number and a deposit. Stop in the shop to take a look and order yours today. I am sure that you will love this table as much as I do.
Build a great fabric stash by joining our Fat Quarter of the Month Club - Each first of the month, members will receive a shop selection of five (5) fq's from newly arrived fabrics. No shipping charges, Visa or MasterCard only. Cancel anytime before shipment. Only $13.50 a month. Call or e-mail to sign up!!
Come out and join the fun and get to know other quilters. We have a small group that meets on Monday evenings at 6 PM to sit and sew (hand or machine) and to enjoy each others company. If you are interested in joining us, please give me a call. I'll keep the coffee pot full.
If you would like to use our tables to sandwich a quilt or if you need room to cut something out, you are welcome to use our class room. You are welcome even if you would like to sit and sew. Just call to make sure there isn't a class before you come over.
The winner of the "green bag" drawing
