Open Sew Saturday

Join us on the 1st Saturday each month for OPEN SEW SATURDAY! A day for you to come in with your own sewing or embroidery machine, and whatever project you may be working on. We chat and give a little help if you need it. Bring your own lunch, or go out somewhere nearby, just sort of free-wheeling it. We'll leave that up to you.

We hope to see you there!
Quilts of Valor
Date: Thursday, September 12
Time: 11am-5pm

A Quilt of Valor is our award to those who have been touched by war. It says "thank you for your service, sacrifice and valor" in serving our nation. If you would like to participate in this local sewing group, please join us on any or all dates to work on your own Quilt of Valor or to assist others with their quilts.
 
Simple Whatnots Club The last meeting for this group is Saturday, 10am-11am, September 14.
WHAT'S NEW!!!!!
FABRIC!!!!!
From Moda - OOOOOHHH! Look at the new Spotted fabric that has just come in. We did so well with the first group we just had to get more! These make wonderful blenders or can stand alone in your quilt. We already have the precuts.  
From Northcott - Christmas Delivery panel- This is just like a big Christmas card! Use it on its own or add some borders to give it your own personality. Christmas decorating couldn't be easier.

 

NOTIONS!!!

Gingher Designer Series Juniper 8" & 4" scissors. Sold separately. Sew very pretty!
Snarky Women Tote Bags - there are four different styles each with a saying funnier than the last.


 

Simple Whatnots 9 Club

Kim Diehl has announced the next series of Simple Whatnots 9 , and I just couldn't wait to share the projects and new fabric line Esther's Heirloom Shirtings. Fabrics won't arrive until December and club will not be able to start before January. I am excited to see that this line has more light colored fabrics than previously, and the projects are wonderful, and what I always expect from Kim Diehl. She does not disappoint!
