Hi Quilters!
We are excited to bring back our UFO Challenge!
That's right... we're doing a UFO (un-finished objects) Challenge. If
one of your goals for the New Year is to wrap up some unfinished
projects, we're here to help! The UFO Challenge begins February 1st and
runs through April 30th . Each of those three months bring in up to 3
UFO's no later than the 10th to register them for $1 each. Return with
any or all of them completed by the last day of the month and for each
one finished your name will be entered into a drawing. We'll draw a name
each month and the winner will receive a $50 gift certificate to the
shop! Just think.... if you play for all three months you could finish
up to nine projects!
For quilters, UFOs may be quilts, table runners, or wall hangings or
purses, etc... - no size restrictions. For knitters and crocheters,
anything unfinished on the day of registration is eligible.
Quilters: Take 15% off batting and backing fabric if you purchase those
items for your UFO on the day you register. Knitters/ Crocheters: Take
10% off anything you purchase on the day you register your projects.
We look forward to seeing what everyone brings in for thee challenge!

Diaper Changing Station Class

Changing Station Assembly Class: Friday, March 2nd @ 530-8:30
Instructor: Breezi Kohrman
Class Fee: $10 (or FREE with class pass) + Supplies
This compact kit is perfect for changing baby on the go. The attractive
wallet style clutch unfolds into a large, padded changing pad with
plenty of pockets to store all the essentials. The pad removes for easy
laundering or to allow the clutch to be used separately. An outer
zippered pocket holds personal items and a handy flap closes the folded
clutch keeping everything contained.
You can also make the fabric of your choice into vinyl fabric to make the pad have an easy clean option. We'll show you how!
The clutch and the pad need to be quilted in order to have a better
result. Since this takes time, we are offering a seperate time slot on
Thursday, March 1st from 5:30-8 to come and do the quilting. If you
don't have this pre-class homework completed and choose to spend your
class time quilting your changing station, you won't get very far on
finishing your project in class. We will be showing techniques on
straight line quilting, free motion quilting, and also using the
Westalee Quilting Rulers. There are many options, so don't be afraid to
try them! If this date doesn't work for your schedule, please call us
and we can make arrangements for you to get quilting instructions at
another time. 983-0254
