Hi Quilters!We hope you had the merriest of Christmases and will have the happiest New Year! We can't wait to see what this year will bring, what projects you will make, and the friendships you develop along your journey. Don't forget to mark on your calendar - Sept. 9th we are having our Bi-Annual Quilt Walk! Such a fun event hanging quilts all up and down main street. Get those projects done so you can enter them to show! .... speaking of getting projects done....... We are bringing back our ever popular UFO Challenge to help you bring in the new year with a bang!  Welcome to our annual UFO (Un-finished Objects) Challenge. This is for BOTH of our store locations!. In January and February we are giving you the chance to FINISH some of your projects that are just sitting in the corner begging to be finished. It doesn't matter the stage of your object. It could be that you have just cut it out.... it could be that you just need to bind the thing... we don't care.. we just want to empower you to get things done at whatever stage. Each of these 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! 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. For Cross-Stitchers/Embroidery peeps- bring anything in that is unfinished. We will even give you another incentive to join our UFO challenge: We'll give you 15% off of any supplies you might need to finish up that project you've been keeping in the naughty corner.We look forward to seeing what everyone brings in for the challenge! --------------------------------------------------------------------------  Come check out our new daily deals.

A few things with classes to be mindful of:
*If you have your project cut out- you will be able to spend class time learning and working on your project, rather than spending all of your time cutting. You will be much more excited about your projects if you are more prepared.
* Classes are a retreat- for a lot of people it's therapy of sorts. It's a time to have fun, learn together, and relax (unless you have a seam ripper in hand.) - Please be respectful of your fellow retreaters. While we love kids, and we have lots of them ourselves- most small children (such as toddlers/pre-k) seem to find our classes a bit boring. We have had some class members vocalize the frustration it brings when a relaxing class gets not so relaxing because of small people being unhappy or bored. Let's let everyone have a happy experience! Unless a child is an active participant of the class, please try and find a different place for them to hang out.

 I Spy Lanterns Quilt Class
Grangeville: Thursday, February 16th @ 10-3
Instructor: Lezlie Moudy
Class Fee: $10 (or FREE with class pass) + Supplies Accent triangles bracket squares of print fabrics in these vertical strings of lanterns. The design was planned to let prints shine, though pieced scrappy blocks, crumb blocks or embroidered blocks replacing the print squares would be interesting variations. All angles are achieved with stitch-and-flip (snowballed corners) construction, creating a complex design while cutting only squares.  Trifecta Bag Class

Instructor: Breezi Kohrman

They come with a sturdy wire frame which makes them perfect for staying put when you open the zipper. They are perfect to use as a make up bag, toiletry bag, pencil bag, essential oil bag, or practically anything else that needs a spot to go.
You can jazz the bags up by adding accents of cork, faux leather, vinyl, or anything else your heart desires.
Come join us to learn how to make this fun bag..  Scrappy Friendship Flower Garden Quilt
Grangeville:Saturday, March 4th @ 10-3
Instructor: Breezi Kohrman
Class Fee: $10 (or FREE with class pass) + Supplies I am so excited about this class. The more people that come, the more fun it will be! Everyone makes the base of the quilt- but the real fun comes in the applique! Each participant will be asked to bring a gallon zip lock bag (or grocery bag) of at least 10"X 10" scraps of fabric, which then will be put in a pile that everyone can dive into to make their quilts fun and unique. I love the idea of sharing and not knowing before hand what treasures you will end up with on your quilt.  *as you can see by the picture, you can use some really fun, crazy, random fabrics to make beautiful flowers.
