Hello Quilters –

As the old saying goes, “April showers bring May flowers” – well let’s hope so. It’s been a rather chilly April around here! We are all ready for some warmth and sunshine – please Mother Nature…

Thank you to everyone who participated in our Scissor Sharpening Event last week. We were inundated with scissors!! Please remember that Rick will be here to pick up scissors once a week. His turnaround time is normally 3-4 days. So please continue to bring them in so you will always have sharp scissors to work with!

Another reminder is our Certified Quilt Appraiser Phyllis Hatcher will be here on Saturday, May 12th from 1:00-5:00pm. There are a few spaces left. Please call Patches to schedule your ½ hour appraisal time.

HUSQVARNA VIKING SEWING/EMBROIDERY MACHINES

ONLY UNTIL APRIL 30th!

Our Husqvarna Viking sale is coming to an end at the end of April. Now is the time to take advantage of the lowest prices on machines.

We still have one of the new 980Q (top of the line sewing machines) in stock. This machine comes with extra feet, specialty bobbin case and special financing.

The Ruby Royale that everyone loves to sew and embroider on retails for $6,999 and we have it for $3,999.

The Topaz 50 is also another machine on special – retail is $4399.00 with a super sale price of $1999.00.

We have one mechanical machine left in stock – Tribute 140M – retail $799 on sale for only $349.00

And last, but not least, we are giving up to a $5,000.00 trade-in on the purchase of the Designer Epic.

ALL machine purchases come with one-on-one owners classes.

Stop in soon and let’s make that deal!

We want to let everyone know that our staff member Ollie Gray is now a certified Hoopsisters instructor. Hurrah for Ollie! And to go along with that she is teaching a Hoopsisters Embroidery class every 3rd Saturday of the month from 1:00-4:00pm. Starting in May, the class will be held on May 19th (where you will be making a lanyard), June 16th and July 21st. Each monthly project will be described online.

Another staff note to let you know about, this summer you will be seeing a lot of Ginny Brown, our Certified Studio 180 instructor here at the store. In addition to teaching several classes, she will be joining us to work part time. We are very excited to have her with us.

Patches will be closed on Monday, May 28th to celebrate Memorial Day, a time to remember all who died while serving in our Armed Services. We will re-open on Tuesday, May 29th at 10:00a.m.

Jackie is off to Spring Quilt Market May 16th. Let’s hope she finds tons of beautiful new fabric lines to purchase!
