Aunt Marjs' Cathedral Window taught by Mariann Golich


A Penny Saved taught by Leisa Firth ( I love this )



I was finally able to get the pictures on the blog of the projects being taught at our Spring Break Retreat. The Mystery class and Cathedral Window classes are now full, but we still have some room in all the others. I would love to have more of you get in on the fun!
It has been a pretty slow day here at the shop - maybe because of conference and all the happenings involving family for the Easter weekend. However you are spending you weekend - make sure it is a happy one. I am going home to make Red Velvet Cupcakes to take to dinner tomorrow - hope they turn out - new recipe! I probably shouldn't try new recipes out at gatherings but that is about the only time I do any real cooking any more - keep your fingers crossed! Have a great weekend - Kaye

Needles and Friends Road Trip

On Wednesday, March 24th, Needles and Friends Quilt Guild headed out on a road trip, organized by Angie Peterson. They met here at the shop - starting at 7 a.m. ( yip - I was up and dressed) - as they loaded Le Bus at 8 a.m. they picked up a breakfast of juice, muffins and yogurt parfaits. They were entertained while riding with stories, videos featuring them and some of their husbands, games and treats. They spent the entire day shopping at Pine Needles, Whimsey Cottage, Quilts Etc., Elaines Quilt Block, Material Girls and Whimsey Cottage. A great time was had by all! I was grateful to have been included in their day - Thank you.
