ANOTHER DAY FOR THE HAPPY SCRAPPERS

 

Hello Quilters!  I hope everyone had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend.  I know I did.  Marjorie, our friend from Utah, sent me her latest finish some time ago, but I couldn't get it on the blog.  Have I told you how much I hate it when they change things, and I really don't like all the changes in Windows 11. Marjorie calls this her Zombie Revenge.  Looks like it took a lot of work to make this beautiful quilt! Great Job Marjorie!

I just wanted to remind everyone that we have added a week day Happy Scrappers group and we will meet at the Attic Window Quilt Shop this Wednesday, May 11, from 10 to 4.  Everyone is welcome.  I have some new patterns to show you.  I thought you might like to use your scraps to make them. Of course, if you don't want to do that, you are free to work on what you want, and the Attic Window Quilt Shop always has lots of fabric, notions, and patterns for you to sew what ever you want.  Hope to see you there!

Hugs, Caroll

The Attic Window Quilt Shop has a couple announcements today.  First, you will want to see some of the lovely new fabrics in at the shop.  Above is Rainbow Gardens from Benartex.  Check out those beautiful butterflies.
These fabrics are from the Mystical Mermaids line, along with the Underwater Friends, Bubbles and Starfish, also from Benartex.
This is a close up of those fabrics.  

Also, the May calendar is now on the side bar or you can get it here.  You will notice that the shop will be closed on Monday, May 30 due to the Memorial Day holiday.  Don't forget the Spring Sale happening this month.  And check out the new classes.

HAPPY SCRAPPERS MEET & AN ANNOUNCEMENT

 
The Happy Scrappers met at the Attic Window Quilt Shop this past Saturday.  It was a wonderful day, and I have so much to show you.  These women really get a lot accomplished.  Above, is a quilt top that Janey made. Now she it getting it ready to be quilted  It's quite large and she used great colors.
Janalee shows us this quilt that she made for charity.  It is so cute.
Check out this backing fabric that she used.
This is a close up of that backing.  Adorable.
Janalee also showed us this quilt that she made for charity.  So bright and cheery.
Mary was back today and working with her 30s fabrics!
Above Jill and Janalee enjoy sewing and visiting.
Vickie worked on this beautiful quilt.  I think she started it a while ago and now it is finished and ready to be quilted. 
And I have to show you this.  Chris had a surprise for us today.  She showed us how to make this big block.  I think it is 18 inches square.  What a fun surprise!  I think she's already thinking about what new to show us next month.  

LeeAnne and Adrienne were also there but I guess I was so busy chatting that I forgot to get pictures of what they were working on.   Maybe I can get pictures when we next meet, which reminds me.... 

ANNOUNCEMENT:  It has been suggested that we also hold a Happy Scrappers meeting during the week because sometimes it is difficult to attend on a weekend.  So, we have added a Happy Scrappers meeting to the calendar.   We thought this a good idea because summer is coming as well as the holidays, and we don't want anyone to miss out on the fun.  So the dates for Happy Scrappers are the second Wednesday every month and the last Saturday every monthThese are the dates for May:  Wednesday, May 11, and Saturday, May 28.  Mark your calendar now and join the fun!!

Also, The May calendar should be ready tomorrow.  Be sure and take a look as some new classes have been added, and there is a BIG SALE coming up that you won't want to miss!!

Remember: The Attic Window Quilt Shop is open Monday-Friday, 10-5; Saturday, 10-4.

Hope you have a great week!   Caroll
