February 2016


Bigfork Quilts, Etc.

February 2016

 

Hello,

 This is the month many of us celebrate the special people in our lives. I thought about Valentine’s Day and the ways we make an effort to let those people know how we love and appreciate them. I also thought about the ones around me who need a bit of encouragement. I have a friend whose daughter is going through cancer treatments, another friend who is shut-in and probably lonely, and…fill in the blanks. Maybe this would be a good time to reach out to them too.

 Quilters always seem to be very generous people. It makes us happy when you come to the shop. We love to see the projects you are working on and enjoy your visits.

Thank you!
Sandi & Staff
