HEART OF WINTER TOUR

Don't you just love this?  I do!  Everyone who is riding on the Attic Window Quilt Shop bus on the Heart of Winter Tour will receive a kit for this adorable place/mug mat.  Just to remind you, The Heart of Winter Tour is a fun, stress free day.  You just jump on the bus and let it take you to three different shops.  You get time at each place to shop.  The price of the bus ride includes lunch, snacks, time to shop and socialize with your friends.  You will also receive a light dinner when you arrive back at the Attic Window at the end of the day.
Kits are available in various fabrics.  Above is just an example of one of the fabrics that will be used for the place/mug mat.  Kits are also available for purchase.  Each shop you visit on the Heart of Winter Tour has a special project available for purchase.
  This is another darling kit that will be available at the shop.  Be sure and check it out.
Above is another cute wall hanging.  Kits are available at the shop.  I love that kits will be available for all these snowmen!  I don't have to make any decisions, just sew and create.
