The Mid-Atlantic Quilt Festival will be here before you know it!  This year is their 30th year and our 26th year vending with them.  We currently have a wait-list for a second bus.  If you are thinking of going, call to get on the list. Needless to say, it is like "ole home week" seeing so many quilting friends we've made over these 26 years.  It is especially gratifying to see so many new young fiber artists that were babies when I first met them.  
We have so much planned for 2019!  Our first challenge is under way, but there is still plenty of time to join in.  Your finished quilt is not due until March 25th.  Stop by the shop to pick up your starter kit and register.
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 creation.
We are upgrading our computer system, much of which you can not see; but trust me, Brenda is mastering all the conversion, connection problems and bugs one by one.  Your reward points will transfer and become a gift certificate coupon.  250 reward points will get you a $25.00 coupon to spend on anything!.  You are no longer limited to redeeming cotton fabric.  You will be able to purchase wool, cotton, books, patterns, classes with your coupon.  Or you may continue to redeem points for yardage for a 90 day test period at least. 
We have just hired two more staff members and are looking for great things from these two young ladies both of whom are into cosplay.  Join me in welcoming Darcy and Cecilia to the team.
Come in and see the class projects for February and March.  You may also print the winter calendar here.  Let us know of classes you would like to see in our spring session.
