not only have we moved things around but we have tons of new fabric! Our website displays some of it but you cant really see it all unless you come in. I know it finally warm and you can get outside and enjoy the weather! No one happier then me its finally spring but if you ask me it already feels like summer. So when you wanna escape the heat come in the shop and check out all the new things we have!

BLOCK OF THE MONTH!

We have two block of the months coming up. The first one is SEW SPOOKY! Its starts this month but its not to late to join! Betty Pompey is teaching the class and for those of you that have taken a class from her before know how amazing she is. As you can see above our very own Rae has made up some of the bigger blocks and she says its not hard at all! The best thing about it is you can use scraps for most of the quilt. That's exactly what Rae did and doesn't it look great ?
           The other block of the month is AMISH WITH A TWIST II ! We haven't set a date on the start of that class but it will be to come. Our very own Linda made the quilt and its beautiful. Its one of a kind! The fabric should be here any day now. If you have any interest in doing any of the block of the months please come in the shop and sign up !

If you don't come in then your just plain missing out on the madness! You still have plenty of chances to get great deals the sale goes till the 30th which is Saturday! So please come in!

At this very moment Susan is at home making the quilt so ill post a picture as soon as its done! But we do already have a kit made up for anyone who wants one! Susan might take a little longer to make the quilt because she came now with a cold! Poor grandma we had to send her home yesterday so she wouldn't get any of us sick. For those of you who were wondering Steve had his MRI done and he will find out Monday whats all going on with his knee. Lets all hope everything fine, because if not who will fix our machines?! I know ladies its a horrible thought so please keep Steve in your thoughts! I cant seem to think of anything else to share with you guys expect come and see us!

Sale Day!

    So its a beautiful day outside but i was right Virginia is tricking us because tomorrow its suppose to be a wintry mix. Doesn't make much sense to me but id enjoy the weather today because its not going to be so nice tomorrow. Were having our sale today for the green club members and tomorrow Sunday and Monday it will be open to everyone. So please take advantage and come in. Once again everything will be 25% off! Hopefully the weather doesn't stop you ladies from coming in.
         Poor Steve was gardening yesterday and hurt his knee, he is wobbling all around the store. No worries ladies he is still fixing machines! I suggested we get him one of the electric scooters to ride around on. He didn't think it was as funny as i did! But come in and to cheer him up ! I hope everyone enjoyed there valentine's day !
