Oh, my gosh!  Where does the time go.  In two days, Quilt R & R at Sea leaves for our Hawaii Land & Sea Cruise and when we get back, it will be May.

We have so much planned for 2019!  Our first challenge is just about over, all but the tallying of votes.  Look for the announcement in this week's newsletter.  We had 11 entries and the Viewers Choice Winner will win a $100 gift card from COTTONWOOD.  Our next Anniversary Challenge will be announced Saturday, May 25 at our Summer Open House. 

Thank you for your patience while we upgraded our computer system.  We are still working through the bugs and just the new way of doing things.  We hope to offer a few of our favorite items online sometime in May.  Have you gotten a $25.00 reward yet?  250 reward points will get you a $25.00 coupon to spend on anything, same as cash!  You are no longer limited to redeeming cotton fabric.  You will be able to purchase wool, cotton, books, patterns, classes or machine service with your coupon.  Or you may continue to redeem points for yardage through April 30 and then all the points will convert to the gift coupon.

Join me in welcoming Devin to the team. We stole him and many of you have told us he was a good steal! We think so.  Along with Darcy and Cecilia, he is finding his way around the store, learning about BERNINA and is working on an embroidered quilt for the shop.  He and Cecilia have already assisted in delivery and set-up of a Q24 on a frame.  All three of our new staff are doing great. 

You may print the Spring Calendar here.  It goes through June classes.  Let us know of topics you would like to see in our summer session.  Our next Open House is scheduled for Saturday, May 25.  We will have an updated June calendar and new calendars for July and August.

Hasn't Lisa done a great job with our website? Email? and Facebook postings? Be sure to let us know if there is something else you would like to see and send us pictures of your latest project.
