Thank you!

Thanks to everyone who came in during our Christmas in July. We had a grand time at our "schoolhouse" and appreciate your attendance. It was a bit wild with people changing stations, but everyone was very polite and cooperative. Thanks to all who waited in line, it was fun to watch friends visiting and sharing ideas.

We hope you enjoyed all the new samples, fabrics and patterns. If you were not able to make the sale, we still have the samples "hanging around".

We just recieved a new shipment of fabric from Riley Blake, the cutest farm animals and prints you have ever seen. Also, new fall prints from Nancy Halvorsen. Come on in and take a peek!

July Saturday Sampler

Here is our watermelon block . . .

Our victorian look. . .

And our Celebrate Life block.

If you missed class, we'll be happy to mail your block. Great to see all our Saturday friends today. We're making great progess on our blocks, can't wait to see the finished quilts!

OOOPS!!

Hope you received our snail mail newsletter. There was a teeny little typo . . . (error). The Schoolhouse event will be held Thursday, July 14 at 6:00 p.m. It states that in several places in the newsletter, but one place has the date wrong. Be assured it is on the 14th.
We are planning a grand evening, with lots of show and tell about new products, rulers, quilts etc. We hope you will join us for a good time and light refreshements. We look forward to planning these events and hope to see you there.

In the meantime, we are having a bit of a problem posting photos on the blog, hope to have it worked out soon and show you some fun photos of our sale July 14-16.

See you at the sale!

Hi Stitchers and Friends . . . here are the Saturday Sampler Blocks for June. The watermelon color way,

the victorian color way. . .

and the "celebrate life" quilt.

Lovely Little Ladies

We have such a good time in our children's sewing classes. It is simply amazing what they are able to accomplish and how quickly they learn. Here is one class showing off their first quilts!

And our cute little Miss Sing is color coordinated to match her quilt! It just doesn't get any better than this!

May Saturday Sampler

It's May and we had snow today!!! Lots of wet, wet, wet snow. The trees were gorgeous. If flooding wasn't such an issue we could be thankful as everything is going to be green, green green.

Our blocks are very pretty this month. First the victorian color way. . .

And the watermelon colors . . .

And Celebrate Life.

Have an enjoyable time stitching, all the blocks are quite easy and it is fun watching the quilt develop. Here's looking forward to warmer (and drier) weather! Hope to see you soon.

Calling All Quilters

All of you who have made beatiful quilts and shared them with us at Valley Fabric, it's time to share them with others. "Quilting on the Green" is a great local opportunity to learn new skills, earn a little $$$ for showing your quilts, and having a lovely time with other quilters. Please think about entering your quilts. The event takes place at the Expedition Island Pavilion in Green River, Wy. from June 2- June 4, 2011.

Information is available at Valley Fabric Shop, quilts must be registered by May 27, and then you might be on your way to cash prizes, a new sewing machine, and other goodies. IT is a fun weekend and promotes quilting in our area. Spend a little time attending the show, enjoying the vendors, and taking some classes. Please support those who have worked so hard to provide this opportunity.
