Dear Quilters,
Happy Spring and pre-summer to you. I’m writing this the last week in March so all the news can get to you in a timely fashion.
Probably one of the things I’m most excited about is an event that’s happening on Saturday, June 16th. It’s never been done before in Western New York- it’s a first!! We’ve had two Quilt Market events before with a tent out front when a sales rep has been here with swatches from 40 plus companies. You got to see the fabric as I see it when I go to Quilt Market to order. But this event is DIFFERENT. When I go to Quilt Market, they have an event that’s called Schoolhouse Series. One day, one can rotate thru classes every 30 minutes. All the newest patterns and books showing the newest fabric lines, new product demo’s, notions, etc. are featured. Well….we are going to have a Schoolhouse! I’d like to give you a taste of what it’s like when I go to Quilt Market. I ‘m writing this the last week of March, and I don’t go to Quilt Market until May 18th, so I can’t tell you what will be featured in our Schoolhouse, but I can tell you:
The Latest & Greatest One Day School House
event will be Saturday, June 16th with TWO tents out front. Cost is $45.00 which includes a minimum of eight 30-minute classes and lunch. Limited to 140 signups. (Car pooling would be great.) The doors will open at 9:00 am. You’ll need to give yourself thirty minutes or so to pick up your schedule packet. The events will start promptly at 10:00. There will be door prizes, give aways, special deals, coupons, and what else - I don’t know yet, because I have to attend Quilt Market to find out. Call or email to sign up as the spots will go quickly!
I’ve asked Penny Marble from Penny Marble Quilt Designs to screen print t-shirts for the shop to sell. I’m asking for slogans you would like to see on the front of the t-shirt.
We will have our logo and name of course, but then a slogan underneath it relating to quilting. We will choose 3 slogans for three different shirts and have them screen printed. The winners of the 3 chosen slogans will each receive a FREE t-shirt. Call or email your slogan - we will keep a running list of nominations. Deadline is May 31st.
A big thank-you to everyone who participated in the Hop For A Cause. At this writing, a total of $6311 in donations was received for cancer. The raffle quilt $$ won’t be counted until May 12th, so there will be more coming. Pretty impressive for the first year!
As you know we have a sale each month. I’ve changed the sale for June as I’ve been thinking the book and pattern sale for that month was sort of boring. The pajama sale in March has always been fun -so check out the monthly sales plus the new swimming attire sale in June!!
The annual Western New York State Shop Hop is coming up, plus Fun In The Sun III, and hopefully you will find a class or two that fulfills your desires. I’ve tried to schedule a variety to fit everyone’s needs or desires.
I’m still looking for people who would be willing to switch to email. Please let me know.
As I always write in every newsletter because it’s so true….You are all fun, friendly, fantastic women and men! I sincerely thank you for attending classes and shopping at Mt. Pleasant Quilting.
Sewingly, Barb
