QUILTS & KREATIONS 2015 FALL 2015 Dear Friends, It is once again time to dust off those sewing machines and start sewing. We have a large line up of classes for you to choose from. I’m sure that we have a class that will appeal to each and every one of you. If you see a class that you are interested in but the class dates do not work for you, and you can gather 3 of your friends we will do a private class for you and your friends if possible. Quilts & Kreations held a three month celebration this summer to celebrate it’s 35th Anniversary, and what a celebration it was! We started off our celebrations in July, and customers had the opportunity to earn Quilts & Kreations Bucks that were used as entries for the 15 gift baskets and a sewing machine that were given away in our Chinese Auction. We wrapped up our celebrations on September 14. Congratulations to all of the winners. A list of all of the winners is posted in the shop. Keith and I would like to thank you for your support over the years. Without your loyalty and support our 35th anniversary would not have been possible. This was our first year participating in the Row By Row Experience this summer. This was a nationwide shop hop that lasted from the end of June to the first week in September. It was a fun experience and we met so many wonderful quilters. We had hoppers from 30 different states and Canada that visited us. The new theme for next year will be Home Sweet Home. We hope that you and your friends will plan on participating this next summer. We are offering the use of our classroom on Saturday October 31 to host a Row By Row sewing day. This is a free event. Bring in a Row By Row kit that you purchased, your sewing machine and join us for a day of sewing and fellowship. You must register if you plan on coming.
