Now that Christmas is over and most of us have our Christmas decorations down, are you starting to think about the next holiday coming up?  Well, we are and Barb and Anne have been very busy perparing the store with new samples, patterns and classes!  Take a look....

  This is one of Barb's new patterns and one of my favorites!  It is called Petit Fours and can be ordered HERE  She also used our quilters linen for the fabrics, which you can find HERE.  She hand stitched LOVE and it is so perfect, you'd think a machine wrote it!

  Next is Be Mine and Barb's pattern can be ordered HERE  The stitching around the heart is done with a machine decorative stitch and Be Mine is a free motion writing!

  This pattern is 4 Coasters and a Counter Mat.  I love the coasters because they can be put together with pockets or sewn shut.  This would add a touch of festiveness to your table!  Order pattern HERE

  This one is called a Q9 Mini by Barb and she cut a kit for the pattern, which can be ordered HERE

  Are you somewhat new at quilting?  Maybe you would just like to make a fun Valentine project?  Anne is teaching this Jelly Roll Hearts Table Runner class on February 3rd from 11-1.  
This simple, yet adorable table runner is just what your table needs for the Valentine season. It goes together quickly and uses basic sewing/quilting techniques. This class pattern is great for the more beginner quilter, yet you do have to have a good understanding of how to use your sewing machine, read a quilt pattern, sew with a 1/4" seam, and rotary cut fabrics.
This class will be held in the classroom and virtually.
Register HERE for the class

 Anne is offering the Sew Together Bag on Saturday, February 13th from 10:30-2:30.  If you don't have any Valentines plans, grab a friend and come make one of these awesome Bags!
This multi-functional bag looks difficult, but when taken step-by-step, it goes together quickly!  It makes the perfect sewing bag, or tech cord storage bag, or cosmetic bag.  This bag can be made simply with 1-2 fabrics, or many different fabrics.  The outside can be pieced or made from one fabric.  The possiblilties are endless.
