CRAFT DAY INFORMATION

 When the members of the Bee Hive and First Blush met today at the Attic Window Quilt Shop, Barb had some show-n-tell for us.  She made this lovely strawberry quilt for her aunt.
This is a closeup of the strawberries.  This is a beautiful quilt and I'm eager to see it when it is quilted.

The Bee Hive decided to not meet again until January, due to all the activities during the next two holiday months.  We will continue to use the same two books:  12 Pack Quilts and Fat Quarter Style.  Some of the rules will be changing so mark your calendar for the 4th Wednesday in January.  I think you'll like some of the surprises we have for you.  And, yes, I mean You,  We would like you to come join us in the fun.

First Blush is continuing as usual. Anyone interested is welcome to attend on the fourth Wednesday of the month.

CRAFT DAY:  Some of the members had never attend Craft Day and had some questions. What happens is you come to the shop with your sewing machine and tools and you sew all day making projects from the kits provided.  You can go Here to see all the items we made in 2016. 
 
These above are what we made on Craft Day in 2015.
 
And these are the five items we made in 2013.  Each year we attend Craft Day looking forward with excitement at what we will be making that day.  It is always a surprise.  Space is limited, so call the shop and sign up now.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR NOW:
  1. The Sixth Annual Jingle Bell Hop is November 8, 9, 10.  Four quilt shops are participating.  A free pattern comes with the purchase of your passport. The four participating shops are Queen Bee (Grand Rapids), Pressing Matters (Holland), Quilted Memories (Montague) and the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  Grand Prizes of $200 in gift cards will be awarded to some lucky participants.  Are you one?
  • The Christmas Craft days will be held in November this year.  Saturday, Nov. 24 and Friday, Nov. 30.  Call the shop now and book your reservation because there is limited space.  You won't want to miss this!

That strawberry quilt is a sweet one. It took me back to early summertime.
The craft days sound like loads of fun. Are the items made for yourselves or are they made for charity?
