There’s a chill in the air, and we are sitting here enjoying a hot cup of coffee and thinking of all of the wonderful classes that are coming our way in this new year. For you piecing enthusiasts, we have several blocks of the month in all sizes. From our largest, 'Solare', to our ‘Little Privy Garden’, we have many to share with you. There’s ‘Aspiring Stars’, ‘Teal-ing Good’, 'Prism’, |

In the ‘Event Department’, we have partnered with Ricky Tims for two special weekend virtual events that you won’t want to miss! Bernina Academy ‘Overlocker Edition’ is back, along with a special event for Overlocker Alumni! And last, but not least, on the first Saturday of each month you won’t want to miss ‘Martha Demos’! Our dear Martha has come up with a long list of tips, tricks, and great new notions. We’re excited to share in the fun with you! In this our 40th Anniversary year, we want to thank all of our customers. Without you our doors would be locked, our lights would be off, and we wouldn’t be having nearly as much fun as we’re having now! So sit back, relax, pick a class, and have some fun! And stay tuned…there’s a lot more to come! |
Have a 'Pieceful' day, Jean and Karen |
Quick Tips:
Use a new dryer sheet to clean the bottom of your hot iron.
When threading a needle, don’t moisten the tip of your thread. Instead, run your finger down the length of your needle.
Use a new bath scrubby to ‘clean’ unwanted threads from your self-healing mat. This is especially helpful after cutting up batting!
Cut out large pieces from a flannel-backed vinyl tablecloth and roll it up to store quilt blocks and unroll it when you’re ready to work on it.
