Posted in Uncategorized at 5:52 pm by satinmoon

A HUGE thank you to everyone in the quilting community for their support and warm welcome at the Victoria Quilt Guild Show and Sale last weekend….

Your support and encouragement were so gratifying after the hard work of the last few months. So many people stopped by to say they had visited our new shop, enjoyed their visit, were pleasantly surprised by the parking at the new shop, how friendly the shop is, and so much more. And of course we were trying to spread the word far and wide about our new location…we hope those of you who have not yet been in, will find us and stop by in the coming months!

The previous week I was invited to speak at the Westshore Quilt Guild for their April meeting. I want to thank you for being so welcoming! I had a great time and was pleased to recognize so many of you from having visited our shop. Thanks and I look forward to having a booth at your show next spring!

This week, in addition to unpacking and catching up on our rest, we are running a Mother’s Day Celebration from Thursday to Sunday…here are the particulars,

This Sunday we will again be offering a free demonstration…we have decided to offer a second demo on felted wool due to the strong interest in the felted wool at the VQG show….the demo will be set up for the entire afternoon (noon to 4) and Susan will be available to answer questions, show you a variety of projects, get you started on a project and so on…please come in and ask Susan [McGregor] about the Felted Wool Demo! And parking is free on Sundays!

More fabric? Yes, lots mores new fabric lines – come and check them out! Lots of bright prints, some “word and letter” prints, new asian fabrics, bright new children’s prints, more Eiffel towers, and new batiks too.

Remember, our web-shop is now open! All of our specials are also available online and we are working hard to get all of the images updated on our website, thanks to Nicole and Sharron!!

Thanks everyone!!
