February Happenings February is National Embroidery Month and it's been such an inspiration to see the beautiful work that has been coming through our doors. So many of our quilters have said they never thought they'd get into the embroidery side of quilting until taking their Bernina Mastery class and falling in love! Additionally, registration is live on our website for the Quilter's JEM Retreat March 28 & 29! You will receive swag bag filled with fun goodies, and there will be a grand prize drawing for an Oliso Travel Iron with wool carrying case. There will be brief demos throughout the weekend on How to Master your Stripology Rulers by Stripology Certified Instructor Jennifer Halbur. Retreat Fee: $250 |

Join the Coolest Club Around! We are thrilled to announce that Quilter's JEM is officially a Stripology Partnership Store! What does that mean? It means that we will be a preferred dealer of all things GE Designs, including prereleased patterns, along with hosting monthly & bi-monthly clubs: Quickies (quilt tops) & Lils (table toppers/runners). On the first Saturday of the month will be the Quickies Club, we will work through the Stripology Quickies book; one pattern each month. We will have kits available, drawings at each event, and snack during the watch party. Book is required. In the Lil Club, we meet bi-monthly on the second Saturday of the month starting in April. Kit includes backing, pattern and video. |
