Notes from the Lodge May 28, 2007

I sure hope you had a very “memorable” Memorial Day!!! I spent a great deal of time working on samples for the booth for next week’s quilt show. Don’t forget the QU show at Chantilly next Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. There are complete details on the web page and we have fliers with maps at the shop if you have never been to this outstanding show.

There will be a number of “new” samples and kits in the booth so don’t forget to put Nutmeg Lodge on your list when visiting. I love when you stop by the booth to say hello and share with me all the other great things that you find.

A BIG reminder—the Bra Challenge is due the end of the week. We have received several so far and they are all wonderful and so creative. These are not big projects so that everyone should have an entry that picked up a fat quarter. If you have not picked your fat quarter up along with the rules there still is time to get something completed and ready to submit.

We are still receiving items from Market and have sold out of a couple of things. One is the spray starch and really has been everyone’s favorite. I will be reordering this wonderful new item. If you have not stopped by to check out all the new books, patterns, gadgets, etc. don’t wait too long---things have been disappearing and I might not reorder some things until after we move.

And now for the “move” news—this week all red, white and blue fabric will be marked down 25% off, excluding batiks and pastels. This is a great opportunity to get those fabrics for the 4th celebration, etc.

Stop in and check out other new things that I can’t remember right now, stop by and say hello at the QU show.
See you soon--Barbara
