Sew What? News from A Stitch of Country

Sierra to Sage Shop Hop That’s right! Save the Dates! The 9th Annual Sierra to Sage Shop Hop will be here before you know it. Shop Hop dates are September 810, 2016. This year’s theme is Quilted Leaves. All shops will be selling fat quarter bundles needed to complete all the leaf blocks you will be collecting in your goodie bag during the hop. The bags are back! Bags will sell for $14.99 each. The bags are available now and supplies are limited. Food Donations will be accepted once again and distributed to local food banks.

Hot August! The Hot August Nights event is happening now through August 7 in Reno, but I think we will continue to experience HOT August days for a lot longer than that. Temperatures continue to hit the 100’s here in Fernley. Luckily we have OPEN SEW on Wednesdays, so come into the classroom and cool off. Maybe I can convince the boss to let me sit in the classroom and sew all day… wink, wink. Do you “work like a dog?” Well come in Friday, August 5 for our “Work Like a Dog Day” sale. All animal themed fabric is 25% OFF. And don’t forget Fat Quarter Friday, August 19, 2016. Buy 3 Fat Quarters and get 1 Free! We are having an END OF BOLT sale August 11th and again on August 25th. Receive 25% off for finishing any bolt of fabric. This is a perfect time to purchase backing for those unfinished quilts. And finally, we will be continuing to give an extra 10% off your purchase on your birthday.
