Summer!

Summer holidays are here!  If you're anything like me, by July 19, our Fall Class Unveiling, you'll be needing to get out of the house for a little peace and quiet.  Why not come check out our class line-up and get in on some great deals too!  You'll also be able to check out the changes to the scrapbooking section too.  The quilting section will be getting a face-lift a little later on.  In the meantime here a few pictures of new fabric lines that have recently arrived.

Postal Service Strike

For all you Card of the Monthers out there, we are sorry to report that due to the postal strike, we are unable to mail out Junes' Card of the Month.  We will send it out as soon as we possibly can but if you are in the area of the shop, you may want to stop in and pick yours up.  Sorry for the incovenience but it is out of our control.

Block of the Month

For all of you in our Block of the Month program, there is a mistake in Junes' instructions.  For fabric B (Dk Purple or Dk Gold depending on which color way you are signed up for) it says to cut 4-2 1/2X2" squares.  This is incorrect, it should read to cut 4-2 1/2X2 1/2" squares.  You will still have enough fabric, however if you find you are short or have already done the row and need more fabric, please do not hesitate to call 225-4787.  We are VERY sorry for this inconvenience.
