A
n Update
from Serendipity Quilt Shop
Good Afternoon all. We miss you and each other! Here is what's new.
Yesterday Governor Carney announced that he is reopening the state and retail shops this week. Nothing has changed with the virus except that we know a bit more about how it is transmitted, who is most at risk for the worst cases (us), that there are still many new cases in this county every day, that there is minimal testing and contact tracing, and no effective treatment.
So for the safety of the SQS staff and our loyal customers, the doors here will remain closed at a minimum, through the month of June with no immediate plans to open for in shop customers. I am taking a "wait and see" approach, which I believe is prudent with the number of visitors who arrive at this time of the year from other parts of the country.
I continue to thank you for all of your support of the shop.
Although our doors are closed for public shopping, we are trying to meet your quilting/sewing needs in the safest way for all of us.
Until March 16th we did not have an online shopping presence and only thanks to Bonnie do we have a pretty good one now.. over 1600 items and counting.
Besides being responsible for the website online shopping, she has been mostly single-handedly filling orders and either shipping or putting them out for "porch pickup". Because of your support of the shop, I was able to bring Pam and Diane H back to work two weeks ago!
The shop is “open” 10 am to 4 pm Monday - Friday to process orders.
Online shopping is available 24/7 and we are adding new items to the inventory daily. We have also begun to receive new merchandise and new orders will be arriving regularly. Watch for our item of the week sale too!
FaceTime appointments will be scheduled for 1-3 pm Monday - Friday. You can schedule by email or phone.
Emails will be answered within 48 hours Monday - Friday.
Curbside pick up is available 10 am to 4 pm Monday - Friday.
We are also happy to ship orders.
** Flat Rate $5.00 Shipping **
Thank you for being patient with us!
We are currently taking pre-orders for the Tula Pink "Nebula" Block of the month which begins in January as well as Tula Pink's True Colors and Linework fabrics. I have to order the number of "Nebula" kits I need by July, so don't miss out if you would like to participate in the block of the month. Details are on the website here :
Pre orders.

Sew Along, designed by Linda Grigsby, on the website. It's not to late to start and the patterns will remain on the website even when the sew along is done. Yesterday, Linda and I were brainstorming on what comes next!
We sincerely hope that you are all well. Thank you again and we do really hope to see you soon.
