Top of the Day!
Mountains of snow are fading in the sun. A big hug and thank you for reading last month's newsletter. My email exploded with requests from stores and guilds requesting my SCHMETZ virtual class. So many, I had to put on a publicist hat and quickly create a system for handling requests. If you contacted me, but haven't confirmed a date yet, I apologize. You will hear from me. As of today, I'm booking fall/winter and 2022 dates.
March is National Quilt Month. What quilt is under your needle? To celebrate, our friends at Shannon Fabrics have created an awesome giveaway. Of course, it includes SCHMETZ needles. Be sure to click this link to be part of the fun: Shannon Fabrics National Quilting Month Giveaway.
All my sewing buddies know I LOVE Shannon Fabrics.
How about the coat I'm wearing above? I have always treasured this wool coat. I love the color, the machine embroidery done by my friend Christie, and that this 12 year old coat still fits. Lol... I like how the embroidery mimics the shamrock. Get a closer view of the embroidery on my personal blog: Spring Burst Coat.
