Hello to All!






 
 As most of you know, we are getting ready for the Row By Row Experience. It starts on Tues., 6/21 and runs through Sept. 6.
 We have developed a pattern for our row and we have packaged kits. Kits with the pattern are $15.95. You may come into the shop for a free pattern, but only 1 per person. For any extra patterns, a kit must be purchased.
 For the first customer that brings in a finished quilt (minimum 8 rows, bound and labeled) there is a bundle of fat quarters as a prize. If our shop row is included, the winner will also receive a gift certificate for $25.00.
 We hope that you enjoy the experience; come in to say 'Hi" and pick up your row!
Thank you,
Sandi and Staff
