OPEN SEWING DAYS ARE BACK!
|
Join all your quilting friends, or make new buddies, at our Open Sewing Days. Happy Stitcher's Club will be meeting the following Wednesdays
October 26th. November 2nd & 9th.
Bring a project to work on, along with your sewing supplies. All that is left is to have fun. (Don't forget you can be working on an apron!)

This Thanksgiving Eve, Tie One On (an apron of course!) and bring joy to the life of someone that is in need, or feeling out of sorts. Participation is easy and uplifting:
* Simply wrap a loaf of bread or baked good in an
apron
* Tuck an encouraging note or prayer into the
pocket
* Present your offering to a neighbor, friend or
person in your community who could benefit from
your gesture of kindness. (Please provide us with
people who you feel should receive an arpon)
* Tie One On - and put the "give" back into
Thanksgiving. Tie One On Day™ is a win-win, for the participant and the receiver. And by embracing TOODay, you will make someone else’s day brighter. “Women clad in aprons have traditionally prepared the Thanksgiving meal, and it is within our historical linkage to share our bounty.” ~EllynAnne Geisel
Giving Thanks With Aprons - Celebrating Acts of KindnessCQC participated in the Tie One On project in 2018 & 2019, and what a wonderful endeavor it was both years!
What we need is homemade aprons (and right before Thanksgiving baked goods).
The more aprons we gather, the more people we can bring a dose of cheer to!
Please join us on Wednesdays (except the 3rd Wednesday of the month) on our
Open Sewing Days ~ Happy Stitcher's Club to work on aprons together.
|
Additionally, we challenged Quilted Corners' to see who could come up with the most aprons. Whichever store wins will have major bragging rights, along with a pizza party! |
Hey Quilted Corners, we are catching up!

"Kimberbell’s Sweet as Pie Bench Pillow is a feast for the eyes! Create pie filling with fabric and iron-on vinyl, then top with a lattice crust. Silver Embroidery Leather adds metallic shine to the mixer and pie tins, while Flexi Foam gives puffy dimension to dollops of cream! With interchangeable ribbons, a cork rolling pin, and so much more, our Sweet as Pie Bench Pillow is warm decor to be thankful for."
We have the machine embroidery designs, embellishment kits and fabric kits in stock now!
