One more day of November and then it looks like December and winter will both arrive the same day. Can I say it one more time---the perfect time to be working on a quilt. I have spent today putting the Summer Joy blocks together and am looking forward to having it ready to quilt this weekend. I think that the coldest temperatures might just arrive at the moment I am sitting under it putting the binding on. Sounds so snuggly doesn't it? I was looking around the shop today and see that we still have those Turning Twenty kits in the wonderful flannel group. If you still need Christmas ideas, these kits are perfect for a teenager, a new dorm quilt or anyone on your list that needs a comfy throw. Turning Twenty goes together so fast that this project will get finished in no time. Remember that flannel quilts really don't need any batting and are perfect for tying. Or, get two sets and sew the blocks together rag-quilt style and you are done!!!!
We started a new book program a couple of weeks ago and I have failed to mention this to you---a new program from Martingale/That Patchwork Place called SUPER STITCHER AWARD PROGRAM. Here is how it works:

• Pick up an Award Card
• Every purchase of a Martingale book, get your card punched
• Buy Nine (9) books
• Mail your card to Martingale and get a book FREE--your choice

Doesn't that sound wonderful!!! Very easy and you can choose any book that Martingale publishes absolutely free after you buy nine books.

See you soon---Barbara
