The Row by Row Shop Hop is in full swing.  Lots of free patterns to collect.  Each shop has created their own row; if you are the first person to present your quilt to a shop (consisting of at least 8 rows, quilted, bound and labelled), you will receive 25 free fat quarters (approx. 6 metres) and, if you use that shop's row, there is a special surprise in store for you.  The Hop runs from now till September 8th.  See you soon.



Part 2 of Camp Squaremup has been posted.  Please remember I am not a professional writer.  I just like having fun writing little stories, my corny sense of humour kicking in now and then.  Also please remember that it is copyrighted.

The May/June issue of Quiltmania just came in today.  Mystery Quilt Block 3, Part 1 of a two-part quilt pattern with lots of action - there is a lot to see in this issue.



This is our row for the 2015 Row by Row Experience Shop Hop beginning June 21st to September 8th.



Coming Soon: 
Camp Squaremup - A Quilter's Boot Camp
This is a serial story that some of you may have seen before when my first business was in operation.  It will be posted in a separate 'page' at the top under the logo, one part each week, starting June 13th.  Here's a sample of what's to come:

"They arrived at 8 a.m., wide-eyed recruits stepping off the bus, lugging their stash duffel bags and sewing machines.  They milled together, waiting to find out where to stash their stash and gear.   Two uniforms approached.  The younger one walked around the group, looking them up and down, shaking her head.  She moved to stand beside the older one, who cleared her throat and barked, “I am Colonel Burgoyne and this is Sergeant Dewitagan!  For the next 8 weeks, the sergeant and others will instruct you on the discipline of the quilt!  You WILL learn!  You WILL have fun!  And, you WILL forge new friendships!”  Turning to the young sergeant, the Colonel stated, “They’re all yours,” and strode off toward the Officers’ Club for a large double-triple. "

 

 

Do you enjoy paper piecing?  Judy Niemeyer's Prismatic Star patterns came in today - fabrics soon to follow - sample soon to follow - class soon to follow....I think you get the idea.

Due to a 9am appointment, the shop will open at 12 noon on Tuesday, June 2nd.
