My Kinda Town is our class this weekend.Hello Everyone,

We had a great time in Raleigh last weekend.  Thank you to everyone that made our visit a success.  We had a great time, but I must admit, I’m tired.  I don’t know how I used to do a show and then get up and go to work at the store on Monday morning.  My recliner has had a lot of my company this week.
We had a nice time with the Rock Hill guild on Monday night.  We did a program for them.  Today we cleaned up things in the barn.  We even used the vacuum cleaner.  It was a miracle.  We pulled everything out of the van and put it back on the shelves.  I better do some preparations for class tomorrow, or it will be a long, uncomfortable weekend for class.  For the next several weeks we are going to be working on our church yard sale.  Like any big project, it will be worthwhile in the end, but it will take a lot of time and energy.

For all of you that sent me such sweet condolences about Curly, I appreciate your kindness.  Friends that love animals AND quilt are just the best.  Stay tuned, I might have some good news very soon.

March Class in Cool Spring

I’ll be teaching My Kinda Townhere, on Friday, March 25, and Saturday, March 26, 2022.  Class fee is $38 plus pattern.  ($32+ tax and postage)  The Friday class is full but there are still spaces in the Saturday class.  This is a paper pieced pattern.  If you are a beginner at paper piecing, you will start with a simple tree.  If you are a more experienced paper piecer, you will jump right in.  Start collecting fun fabrics for happy houses. You will only get one house finished on class day, so don’t sweat the preparation.  Picking out the fabrics as you go is part of the fun.
To register for the class, call or text Cindy at 704-376-2531.  Classes are held at Cool Spring UMC.  1902 Mocksville Highway, Cleveland, NC 27013.  That’s about 6 miles east of Statesville on Hwy. 64.
Cindy will send a supply list when you register.

The church is easily accessible from I-40 or I-77.

Class will be from 10 am-4 pm but we have the church open by 9 am so you can get set up and have a cup of coffee before we begin at 10 am.
As you know, eating lunch is an important part of the day.  Bring a sandwich or a casserole and we’ll provide sides, chips, desert and tea.

Be sure to bring your “show and tell” quilts. We love to see what you are working on.

Once you are registered, mail a check payable to The Quilter’s Gallery to 224 Woodleaf Road, Cleveland, NC  27013.  Payment is required at the time of registration to hold your space in the class.
