HAPPENING AT THE ATTIC WINDOW QUILT SHOP

This is rather a random post today.  First of all I want to show you this cute block.  It is the Attic Window Quilt Shop’s block for the Quilters Road Trip which is being held during the months of April, May, and June.  Twelve area shops are participating.  You get a chance to win a $25 gift certificate each month at each shop.  Also available will be new projects, patterns and giveaways.  You can get your Passport at the Shop for only $5.
New at the shop is Seam-Fix.  This is not just another seam ripper, but a very useful tool that saves you scads of time plucking out all those little bits of thread after you have ripped a seam.  You can watch this tool in action by watching this video here.  Remember to pick one up the next time you are in the Shop.
Check out this cute little quilt.  A new teacher will be teaching you how to make this quilt in a class called Scrap Therapy on Friday, May 24th.  From the title I bet the teacher will also be discussing scraps – how to use them, organize them, and make better use of your scraps.  Call the Shop to register and for further details.

ON ANOTHER NOTE: House of A La Mode has a tutorial for a cute mug rug.

Until next time,

Stay Calm! Stay Kind! Stay Positive!

Generosity has no bounds. Above are the women in the Quilts For Kids group at the Attic Window Quilt Shop. Left to right, Henrietta, Phyllis, Nancy, Carol, Karen. These women donate their time, fabric, money once a month to make quilts for kids who have cancer.
