HELLO EVERYONE

I hope everyone made it through the storm OK and that you're able to start sewing. I've gotten some pictures from the group who are working on their PhD Program. Here they are: Aren't they all beautiful. Good one ladies. Can't wait to see what's next.

OCTOBER'S PhD IS #1

Hello All. This month, October, we will be working on Project No. 1. So get those sewing machines and needles going. We have 3 more finished PhD's. Michelle has to get me a picture of hers, but Kelly Ann and Diane sent me a picture. Wait until you see how great they came out.

Great job ladies. Can't wait to see this month's projects.

Another Finished PhD Project

Happy Thursday everyone. Well, you are not going to believe it. Sandy came in today with her first PhD project completed. Another one down. I have to say that I am so proud of you girls for really buckling down and gettin' to work. If this keeps up we might have to add more projects to the list for some of you. Here's a picture of Sandy's project. Looks like someone is being a little shy today, all you can see are her glasses.

OUR FIRST FINISHED PhD PROJECT

Hello Everyone. Can you believe this weather we're having today. I just keep telling myself that we need the rain, but the wind - oh boy!!! OMG!!! You'll never guess. One of our PhD girls (Jen) has actually finished her Project #4. Can you believe it. Check it out. OK, girls, we can't let her get 5oo far ahead of us - let's start cooking.

PhD Program - September - Project #4

Hello Ladies - Welcome to all of you who have decided to join our PhD Program. I'm so excuted with the number of people who have decided to join. This is a really great opportunity to finish those unfinished/planned projects. And, with the holids coming, what an opportunity. We will be working on Project #4. So, ladiess, go to your list, check to see what your Project #4 is and start working. Remember, I'll need a Progress Report at the end of the month. If you've finished, send me a picture. If not, put it aside to finish later in the semester. Don't forget - it is not necessary to attend Study Hall on the specified Saturday. You can work from home. Just remember to send me that Progress Report. Good Luck everyone!!!! Enjoy!!! I'll be pulling out my project #4 too. Wahoo!!!

MARGE'S VISIIT

During the month of September and October, Marge will be doing a 2-part workshop called Sweet Potato Pie. This is a great workshop if you are interested in learning curved piecing. She stopped in today with another example of curved piecing. For information on Marge's workshop, please check the Workshop section of the website.

PAPER PIECE WORKSHOP/TUMBLER CORNER

We had a great workshop last weekend. Diane Fama held a workshop on paper piecing and worked with the girls making adorable bird houses. Everyone made a couple of blocks and had a great time. We also had a great quilt camp this past weekend. It was a full house. Many of us finished projects, like Debbie's tumbler quilt made from a Cozy Quilt Shoppe kit. A photo is shown below:

Kathleen has been visiting our tumbler corner, as you will see by her projects shown below. We have a great assortment of pre-cut tumblers and, if you would like something different, pick out your own fabric and we'll cut them for you. Here's the projects Kathleen made:

QUICK AND EASY QUILT

When Kim came into the shop and wanted to make a quick and easy lap sized quilt, I remembered one of the recent patterns that we had come up with for the Mystery Block of the Month Club. We picked some really cute fabric and started cutting. Three days later, Kim walked into the shop with this quilt:

Didn't it come out adorable? I actually liked it so much that I think I'll make a couple of kits to sell in the shop. Good going, Kim.

JENS QUILT

I just love Jens new Black and Red quilt top.

It's a Main Event

A VERY SUCCESSFUL QUILT CAMP

We had another quilt camp this past Saturday and it was a great success.  Janet finished her jelly roll quilt, Regina finished yet another Quilter's Diary block, Debbie finished her Snowman basket and I finished a new shop sample made with a variety of batik triangles.

OPEN SEWING SATURDAY

The ladies who came in on Saturday to sew had a very productive day.  There are now three less UFO's out there.  Jen came in with her hot off the sewing machine skull quilt, Kelly Ann finished her Potato Chip and Pat finished her version of a Jelly Roll quilt.

Tattoo Parlor or Quilt Shop????

Debbie can now add Tattoo Artist to her resume.  She just finished a MOM tattoo on her first customer at the shop.

Another Strip Challenge Quilt Completed

My, Oh, My!!!!!!  Jen brought in her completed Scrap Challenge Quilt today and it is absolutely gorgeous.  She did it in black and white strips and then did her corners in red and black.  As you will see from the picture below - it is striking.

ANOTHER FINISHED PROJECT

A couple of weeks ago Diane Fama gave a workshop on the 3 Dudes quilt.  We had a full house that day and the colors were amazing.  Everyone had a really great time oohing and aahing about everyone's colors.  Well, today Pat finished her quilt.  What a fabulous job!

Great New Fabric

Look what just came in - Sunflower Serenade.  There are 6 beautiful designs.  Sharon is starting to work on a sample - can't wait to see how it's going to turn out.

BARGELLO LANDSCAPE

This is a really exciting evening.  Not only did Liz bring in the first Scrap Challenge quilt, but Marge brought in her sample for the Bargello Landscape workshop.  As always, Marge did an outrageous job.  There is still a couple of seats available in her workshop, so sign up soon.  You won't be sorry.

Our First Scrap Challenge Quilt Arrives !!

Hi Everybody !

Here's our first scrap challenge quilt by Liz ! She's here for her 4 B's to finish her Quilt: Batting, Borders, Backing & Binding. We can't wait for Liz to bring in her finished quilt :)

Great New Quilt

Janice just dropped off a great new quilt this weekend for a class in March.  We haven't had the opportunity to set the date yet, but it's a good one.  We also had 2 great classes this weekend.  One was Bright Eyes, which was a full class and I can't wait to see the quilts when the girls finish.  The other was 3 Dudes.  Another full class, which worked out great.  Our sample was in Halloween fabric, but you should have seen some of the Bali Pops used for these quilts.  Barbara came in today with her red one today all ready for a border - it was spectacular.  Hopefully she'll put a picture of it on our blog - hint, hint, hint.
