We have been very busy this week--Friday I am off to Manassas for the quilt show there this weekend. If you are looking for something fun, check out the information at the top of the page for this local show. If you get by, you will be happy with the new things in the booth. If have been busy the last few weeks making samples for new projects especially for shows. These are things you haven't seen yet at the shop.

New to arrive this week in the gift department---the cutest tea sets that any girl ever saw. If you collect tea sets then you really want one of these for your collections. If you have a little girl in your life, pick up this wonderful collectible. You will have the best tea party ever and if you think that the age is appropriate, the gift of this adorable hand painted porcelain set will surely become an heirloom.

We are still awaiting the arrival of new batiks and homespuns--stop by or call next week to check on the arrival of this new merchandise. We are also waiting on more gifts.

The Nutcracker class this week was happily attended by a number of happy appliquers. I think they were delighted with the "inside tips" that I provided for them. If you are in need of help or easy tricks to make your blocks go easier, put this class on your schedule for next month. Come in and sign up and pay for a great experience with hands on applique help.

See you soon---Happy Saint Patrick's Day!!! Barbara
