It's super Saturday!
Super Saturday is this Saturday, October 22nd. It is also our October BERNINA Club meeting.
This is the project we will learn about..... this great vest. It is a brand new Indygo Junction pattern that uses some great BERNINA embellishment techniques to make it a one of a kind creation. I used strip piecing, decorative stitching, free motion couching, BSR quilting, and edge stitching.
If you are even thinking about getting a new BERNINA, this is the day to do it. They are offering a great financing deal on certain machines, plus there are some gift with purchase items too.
It's a one day only event, so come on over! We'd love to see you and show you the great BERNINA machines we love!

Come on to my house.... my house....
I bet you often wondered how we get ideas for new projects at the Quilt Shop.
Well, it has something to do with sleepless nights. Last Friday, Ginny saw this front cover of Quilt Mania magazine...... She went home Friday night and couldn't stop thinking about this house quilt on the cover.
She came in Saturday and had a whole plan of what fabrics she was going to use. I came into work, she told me about it, I was hooked, I made a plan of what fabrics I am using..... Amy came in later, same thing, and Lois and Mary too!
Now here is the fun part. We are all going to make this quilt. We are getting the pattern, but for now we are using the magazine. Every week I will post pictures of blocks, but we aren't telling you who's blocks they are. That's your job to guess, here are the first 2 blocks. Who do you think made these?
Want to join us? The house part of the block is easy, the patchwork part of the house is 6 inches. As soon as we get the pattern, I'll let you know.
So, who do you think made these blocks?

BERNINA Club
Yesterday was our Virtual BERNINA Club. We learned about a new pattern, the Monaco Bag.
The webinar showed us how to embellish it with machine embroidery, ruffles, topstitching and couching. It was a fun meeting! Plus we got to see the new BERNINA 550 up close!
More new fabrics arrived this week, a really pretty blue and green group. I will take pictures today and post them later.
Ginny is back and raring to go! She has some great ideas for some fun new projects! I'm starting some holiday sewing.... yes I said holiday sewing. I have a wonderful room mom this year in my class. She comes in once a week to help, she gets me whatever I need, she is just fantastic. She deserves a special gift, so I started the Weekender Tote for her! I finished the front, now to do the back and sides.
Put on your thinking cap.... who can you sew for this holiday season?
Remember, we are open today from 12-4. Stop in to see us!
