March Newsletter 2021
We've made it through February and spring has to be just around the corner! We have so much going on here at the shop and we're hoping you can join us for all the fun! New fabrics are arriving each week and the walls are filling up with new patterns and samples. Miss a couple of weeks and you miss a lot here at TQS!
We have started classes again and our first two still have openings. Give us a call if there is a specific class that you are wanting to take, and we will do our best to provide it!
Our Oh Happy Day Block of the Month club will begin on March 20th. This feel good project was designed by Iowa designer, Sandy Gervais. We still have spots available if you are interested.
Note: Mark your calendars for April 5-10 for our Spring Break Shop Hop and April 24 for our
Pack your Project Party retreat. More details to follow.
Quilter of the Month
Brenda Mortenson is our featured Quilter of the Month. Brenda has been quilting for over 25 years and was taught by her sister, Nan.
She leans towards the brighter colors, but admits that, "I've never met a fabric I didn't like!" :-)
Brenda loves working with patterns designed by Kim Diehl or Lisa Bonejean. She especially likes the look of quilts with small pieces. She follows lots of designers on Instagram but loves to visit quilt shops and probably gets mosts of her ideas from their samples.
Brenda's favorite ruler is the 3"x12" Quilter's Select and the Bloc Lock rulers. In honor of Brenda, these rulers will be discounted by 10% during the month of March. Check out our window and admire the beautiful quilts made by our special friend, Brenda Mortenson.
We are so proud to be hosting a trunk show from By Annie's during the month of March! Stop in to check out all of her beautiful samples, patterns, and supplies needed to make her beautiful bags!
You will want to tune into our Facebook page on March 1st to take part in our first Facebook Live event featuring our own, Leanne Fangmann! It will run from 7:00 - 7:30 each Monday evening. There will be a 10% discount on anything you purchase from the live or the replay from Monday through Friday while quantities last. This will be a chance for you to see what's new at the shop and some of our favorite notions and designers. Please join us each Monday night as we begin this new adventure!
