A Piece In Time - A Quilt Shop in Akron OH

A Note from Sandy . . .

Happy New Year, happy quilter! First of all, thank you so much for all your support in 2009. It was definitely an exciting first year in our new location, and we so appreciate all the wonderful compliments on our displays, “revolving quilt shows,” new sign and lace curtains! It has been a fun time. But it would be all for nothing without your generous support. We know how hard it has been for you these past few years, and every purchase means we can stay here a little longer. So we hope you will take a good long look at the classes and hopefully find a few that appeal to you. We love being a part of your success. Thanks for your continued kindness.

Have we got some great plans for you for the upcoming months! New programs, new classes, new projects, products...new, new, new! And check out our coupons on p. 10, in the February calendar--the only place we had room to put them, but they aren’t just for February.

February will kick off our $5 Samplers again! Don’t skip ahead, but the projects are so exciting. Check out the details on p. 2.

Linda is offering you several continuing clubs for Pfaff owners and 4-D software owners. Also, she’s teaching three incredible Jenny Haskins certified classes. Linda is an official accredited tutor of JH classes. You won’t want to miss these. It’s worth getting that Embroidery machine you’ve been wanting, right now!’ just so you can create these elegant projects. We have some wonderful financing coming up. The time is now, ladies. Consider putting those tax refunds to good use with a new machine!

Wendy is back with her favorite core classes. Be sure not to miss out on her Fabric Painting in April. And Mary Huey is back with some exciting Marti Michell template classes. Eunice is taking over some of my Electric Needle classes for me. She’s such a wonderful teacher. I need to have some extra time to drive this bus and keep things running smoothly for you. Eunice has been with us for a long time and we are blessed to have her here to help you over the bumps and humps on your quilting road. And NEW.....We have a few new team members who are ready and willing to help serve up your dreams for you. Just stop in and say Hi! and get to know them. When we advertised for help, we were deluged with talent. We are still working through the applicants. There are some talented people waiting in the wings for you, when we have the budget to put them aboard. You’ll enjoy spending time with Charlotte and Annika on the sewing machine floor. They have years (lots of years -- and we’re not counting) of amazing experience in machines. Ask them anything you like and do go over to the machines and have a seat. Let them show you what they are making each day.

It’s time to sign up for the Spring Retreat. This year we are going high end at low end prices. Grab a roommate and get yourself into the party! You won’t want to miss it. The rooms are too wonderful, with refrigerators and microwaves and beds fit for a princess! Do join us. You’ll have a wonderful time. Spots are filling quickly, so hurry!

Be sure to read this issue from cover to cover as it is bursting at the seams!
Until we see you in the shop,
Make a Quilt, Make a Memory!
