Our New Friend
Messages From Marilyn
Here's a photo from my vacation that started in Vancouver, Canada, where I could already feel the Alaskan breezes. That lightweight jacket would soon disappear...
We have a new friend in the shop! He's come all the way from Alaska! He's settled down now and found his favorite location where he greets new friends with a big smile. However, he needs your help. The poor guy doesn't have a name. So we're asking you all to please come by, meet our new friend and help us give him the proper name he so deserves. On September 18th, I'll go over all the entries and choose the winning submission. The lucky person will receive two free yards of fabric of his or her choosing. Oh, and let's not forget bragging rights...
Labor Day weekend hours - we will be closed Saturday, August 31st and Monday, September 2nd so we can enjoy time with our families and maybe even gets some yard work done.
Have you studied the beautiful fabrics which make up the 2013 Shop Challenge? We're getting some very interesting, varied entries. These are not you ordinary little quilt! Stretch your imagination and come out of your comfortable box. Over the years we've noticed that originality counts and only a few kits remain for your choosing. Come play with this project and surprise yourself and others!
The weeks pass so fast and before we know it the big Jacksonville Quilt Fest will be upon us. Thursday, September 26th through Saturday, September 28th. This is the larges quilt show in the state with over 400 quilts and 74 vendors. It has always been well worth your time and effort to attend this event. It is always an exciting weekend! Or triple booth is number 404, the exact spot we've been for years! Please come on by and say "hello".

The Cat's Away!
A Message From Marilyn:
John and I will not be in
the shop for awhile as we take some vacation time with family. We haven't
even gone and already I'm hearing rumors around here... Last year's "When
the Cat's Away - The Mice Will Play" events were so popular that I'm sure
Becky and Susan are planning on recreating similar hi-jinks. I am sure
that they are in the planning stages because every time I look at them, they
have their heads together and the calendar out. Whenever possible please
come by the shop to keep an eye on my Mice. I'm certain that you'll enjoy
their mischief, as well!
A Message From The Mice:
You better believe we have
hi-jinks planned!! Watch our blog and facebook page for hints and
notifications letting you know what is going on here in the Mice Den! We
promise some great fun and fabulous sales and mabe even a squeek or two.
Squeek... squeek!
Squeek... squeek!
