June Events

Next week is busy, Registration June 8-12, with paid registration take 20% off class supplies this week only. The entire new schedule is on the website, We will have a great summer here, Sunbonnet Sue, Just 4 fun beginner class, kids classes, Art Camp, more seasonal houses, applique technique sampler, the Holiday Head start program, and even a pillowcase party are all on the schedule. Our air conditioned classroom is a great place to spend a hot day.

I also want to let you all know that anyone who has a piece in the Quilts in The Valley show this weekend, ( Wiltwyck Guild Show ) can bring in the judges comment sheet on June 12 and take 25% off their purchases that day. Entering the local shows supports the guilds and all the charity work they do, helps educate the public about what quilts are and can be, and is a great way to share this lovely thing that you spent time and energy to make. The judges comments can help you understand what is great about your piece, and what technique you may want to work on improving. ( Of course you could even win a ribbon and that is a wonderful feeling. ) It is a difficult job for the judges to decide how to give out those ribbons, and I believe that just entering is enough to deserve a reward. So bring in those comment sheets and the quilt if you want, and you can have a discount.

Art Club members will need paper or sketchbook, pencils, eraser, ruler, fine black marker, and colored pencils or crayons for Tuesdays meeting. I will have some colors too. The second half of the In the Pocket Tote is Friday. Beyond that, the June Schedule is below, sign up before things fill.
