Sew Inspired "Snips & Pieces"

Yeah, I know, Valentine's Day was yesterday, but I'm a sucker for things that go together, like Valentine's Day and chocolate, or peanut butter and jelly, or our Sew Sweet Shoppe event and the Fat Quarter Frenzy!  Our first Sew Sweet Shoppe event is in March, but now is the time to start gathering your fabric for the fun.  Get this: the pattern calls for twenty-four fat quarters (twelve light and twelve dark), and wow - look at this: tomorrow starts our Fat Quarter Frenzy sale, where you can purchase ten fat quarters and get ten free!  That means that you can get an awfully good start on collecting fat quarters for your quilt top and have everything pulled together by the time the middle of March rolls around.

Now, I know a lot of you are detail people (whereas sometimes I get lost in the big ideas), so here's the low down on both the Sew Sweet Shoppe and the Fat Quarter Frenzy.

Sew Sweet Shoppe:

• Sunday, March 14, 12:00-4:00pm
• Fee: $20
• Instructor: Heidi
• Pattern: Oh My Stars
• Use either our pre-bundled fabric (reds and creams), or bring your own collection of 24 fat quarters: 12 light and 12 dark

 

Fat Quarter Frenzy:

• Tuesday, February 16 - Saturday, Feb 20
• Buy 10 pre-cut fat quarters, get 10 free, no limit
• Wear your Mardi-Gras beads and get a free gift

We've cut and folded 1000s of fat quarters for this event (Viv, Sandy, and Debbie tell me it was about 6,000.  I didn't count - we'll have to take their word for it!), so there will be something for everyone!
