Hello Sewing Friends!!!

Memorial Day...both of our locations will be closed on Monday May 30th in observation of Memorial Day.


I first want to make a correction to the email that mom sent out last night. She and the Northern Neck team have been working very hard at getting the store moved as quickly and efficiently as possible so it was 2 AM when she was attempting to update everyone on the progress of the move to White Stone. 1st the store will be open for business on Thursday May 26th at 10am. She had the day correct just the date wrong :-) 2nd there was an error in the correct spelling of White Stone...it is two words and she put it as one. We are very sorry for this error and hope no one was offended, but she was VERY tired :-)


Next week I will have lots of pictures of the newly moved store at the wonderful new location and would like to invite EVERYONE from the Richmond and the Northern Neck area to join us on June 11th for the Grand Opening Celebration!!  I will be there along with Steve, Susan, and hopefully Jane will be with us as well (I really am missing Jane!).


Make sure to take a look at out calendar, we have some new creative classes as well as new guide classes. If you have not yet attending guide class on your new sewing/embroidery machine or your software make sure to give us a call or send us an email at info@bluecrabquiltco.com so you don't miss out on this next round.


I am teaching a fun class using the Kwik Sew pattern #3856 - a very cute summer dress perfect for ALL body types. I have already made three and I am currently working to make four more...one for each of my girls and yes one for mother, I hope she likes it! Click HERE for the dates and times of this class and it is a GREAT beginning sewing class and for those of you who have but don't use; dust off those sergers! This is a PERFECT way to get re-familiar with your serger. Class is being offered in Richmond and White Stone.

Two of my favorite magazines have come in this week...


Designs in Machine Embroidery with " One-of-a-kind Wedding Accessories" and "The Perfect Solution to cover sewing/cutting errors using applique".


Sewstylish - Summer Edition - "Make the Ultimate Summer Wardrobe" with a really fabulous 15- minute Sarong (I will HAVE to make that!).



Shhh... I have just received two boxes from Clothworks and you will never guess what it is.....

Holiday Celebrations by Laurel Burch!!! I don't have it in the system yet but will try to have it ready and on the floor in the next day or so. Mom doesn't know its here and I am going to try and keep it in Richmond until the 11th of June so make sure to stop in soon to get your pieces before mom takes it for the White Stone Grand Opening :-)

Here is a peak at a few of the pieces








 
Well that's all for now...Hope everyone has a nice and relaxing Memorial Day Weekend...I will be off for four days relaxing in my beach!!

Happy Sewing and Creating!!
