NOTES FROM THE LODGE Sunday, November 30, 2008

I hope that you had a great Thanksgiving!!! We had an outstanding day on Black Friday. Thanks to Marcy and Judy it was a success as usual. They really have created a great event. I actually worked that day---sorry to say it is the first time that I have been in town. We were extremely busy but it was so much fun. Thanks to all of you who came out so early to enjoy the bargains.

This week we have Santa's Workshop on Friday. Come at 5:00 and plan to get some projects finished or just enjoy the fun. Bring canned items for Loaves and Fishes. They are very low on mac and cheese (the blue box is preferable), canned spaghetti sauce and pasta are the staples that they always need. That is your admission---also bring a snack to share with everyone. We will have tables set up for basting, both cutting tables available. A limited number of spots for sewing machines, ironing boards and chairs to sit in for binding sewing, applique, etc. We are looking forward to a fun evening.

Saturday night is the Christmas parade downtown. You really want to plan to come down for this fun event, plus Santa will be in the Ice Palace this weekend.

We have the remaining Christmas fabric marked down 30% off. It is still not too late to make a Christmas project and definitely not too late to start thinking about next year's projects. Remember there won't be any Christmas fabric until July.

We also have two 6600Ps on sale. Come in and talk to us if you are interested in gifting yourself with an upgrade. Also it's not too late to tell Santa that you would like one under the tree.

See you at Nutmeg Lodge this week. Barbara
