WELCOME FALL!!!�

A few corrections on our Tote Bag from the Quilter’s Quest shop hop. The lining should�be 14 x 17 After you fold and stitch the straps, just cut the salvage off and they should�be around 40 inches each. Whatever length you have is good just cut off the salvage. The�important thing is that they are the same size. Also you should square up the fronts and�back to 14 x 17 so that they are the same size.�At the next shop hop I didn’t have to do a pattern so we should be good!!!�

We have lots of cool things coming up in the next couple of months. The most important�one is the Owners Class on the MC15000. Be sure to check that out in this newsletter.�Call the store for more information.�

Coming in 2016: Anita’s Workshop “The Perfect Sewing Room” This is a great pack�that does cord wraps and many other useful things to get your sewing items organized.�The date will be announced after the first of the year.�

We are also going to do a Hoopsisters class. Many have done some of their quilts. This�one is very pretty. Summer Dreams is a compilation of some of their favorite blocks but�totally redone and modernized!! They are quick stitch with the longest block taking only�30 minutes.
