Thimbleberries Harvest Party




Just a little reminder of our upcoming Harvest Party: Saturday, October 12 at 11:30 a.m. Don't forget to bring your Fall Treat Bag, (don't forget the treat inside!!) and your Challenge Tablerunner (if you chose to make one). I've included a sneak peek of my little treat bag. This is a fun and easy design by Crabapple Hill, and someone at the party is going to get to take one of these cuties home! Inspiration is right outside your front door, as our fall colors continue to get more and more brilliant. So, take a few moments away from your canning and wood stacking, and make something fun that will last for several seasons to come! See you soon! Katie and Lisa

Back to School Night!


September brings fond memories of new school clothes, books, crayons and pencils. There is a tangible excitement in the air of being with friends and learning something new. Well, who says you can't start over?! We are getting very excited about our own brand new "school" here at the shop. Mark your calendars for Monday, Sept. 22 at 4:45 pm for Applique 101. Come for a light supper and learn why you are missing out on some beautiful quilts because you "don't do that kind of thing!" We will be exploring LOTS of different ways to do applique- YOU pick the project and the technique you're comfortable with as we go along! This is open to "kindergartener" as well as "senior"- just bring a pair of small scissors. We hope to see you there, and remember- don't be late for school! Happy Stitching, Katie and Lisa
