Pillowcases!!!

This coming Friday is our Pillowcase Party. The goal is to have 25 more pillowcases made that day. I have promotional goodies and grab bag prizes while supplies last for those who finish and donate a pillowcase. I will also have some light refreshments. If you have a friend who always says she would love to learn to sew, bring her in!! This is a great way to get more people interested in sewing, do something good for our community, and have a fun time while we are at it. The special is on books, so the new sewers can go home with inspiration and instructions in hand, 10% off all books. If you sign up ahead of time and volunteer at this event an hour or more you will be given and extra discount too. Call or email and let me know.

This is a busy week, besides the Pillowcases, Tuesday is the Beautiful Binding workshop, and Wednesday is the second half of Lemon Blueberry. I also want you to mark your calendars, VFS will be closed Sept 2,3,&4. This means that the William Morris Block of the Month meeting will be moved to September 11.

In September we will be working on the last flower block and reviewing the skills needed to finish. Both October and November are optional kits so you will need to let me know if you are going to purchase them so I don't cut more kits than needed. October will cover the knot work block surrounds, ( you'll need to do 25 for the Queen size) and in November we will add the leaf border for those doing the wall hanging size. December is the big reveal and a party. Please come in and pick up the August Block Kit if you have not yet done so.
