Notes from The Hen House

Merry New Year!

THANK YOU…. for your support and encouragement during the last 7 months!
It has been a blessing to serve you in your creative pursuits. We look forward to sharing the joy of stitching with you in 2015!
 
Looking at 2015…..
*We anticipate a revamp of the website.

*Classes, classes, classes….. The calendar is complete yet but we anticipate some fun with fabric. 

*BOM’s!!! We have a few! Our wool BOM is FULL! (we do have extra Lori Smith patterns).
The other BOM’s are “list in waiting” mode, please contact the store for details and to sign up.
We will be offering a “Sew-a-long” to go with the quilt of the quarter by Pam Buda. We just received the shop kit…, stitching will begin after January 1st.

*Kim Diehl’s 2nd Whatnots Club will start in March. We have enough fabric to make kits for the first 10 people who sign up.

*Groups! We enjoy the groups that meet at the store and will be starting another group called Projects in Waiting.
The group will meet every Thursday from 11-7. Group members will be able to work on various types of projects by hand or machine. Please let us know on Wednesdays if a large group will be joining us.

*The Row by Row Experience starts June 21st and will continue through Labor Day. The Experience now includes all 50 states and Canada… The theme is “Water”, all shops must submit their design(s) by April.  We will have a license plate for 2015.

*Consignments- There are currently books, rugs, towels, scarves, jewelry, roving and handspun yarns offered in the store. The woven items are 25% off the tag price.

*Weaving & Spinning-We do offer weaving classes on floor & table top harness looms, along with Rigid Heddle looms.

We are looking for a few spinners to offer their expertise to others. Having other weaving & spinning supplies in the store is still a work in progress.
 
May 2015 be a great year for you and your family!

We are going to be updating our newsletters this year! Please check your subscription preferences so that you will get the messages that you want to receive. There are a bunch of categories and you can select as many or as few as you like. Thanks in advance!! 
Projects in Waiting! A new group meeting just to work on protects together. Any project you want. Bring friends, food, and be ready for fun! This group is to inspire one another, help each other with design ideas and to encourage creativity. All people and projects welcome! 

What is a project in waiting? We used to call them UFOs, or PHDs. They are the quilt you started 7 years ago, your first wool applique project that you aren’t excited about anymore, those blocks you just don’t know what to do with. Any project you have started or are thinking of starting, but that you need some friendly advice or inspiration for.

This group will be meeting every Thursday, so come and join us anytime you can!!
