They do say April Showers…
bring May flowers - but man it is crappy outside today. The silver lining- the warmer weather is another month closer!
I got a few calls and comments about missing my email last week and I am sorry. Between here, the high school and home I think I experienced a full week of full moons. It seemed like everything backed up on top of everything else and here I am the week later wondering where the last week went? Oh well. Here I am now.
So the sweater contest is on! Come in and vote for your favorite. They are beautiful. We will get them photographed and posted so you can preview them. You have all month to vote, and since this is done my way, vote everytime you are in the shop (you get one per visit) and help your favorite sweater/knitter win!
Next Friday, Marie Zelmer Wu is back for day of family photography. I hope you can take advantage of this great opportunity to get some Spring pics done in time for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. Family and kids portraits make a wonderfully special gift. Check out the samples in shop or visit the youtube site at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_HKq7SesVU to check the slide show out. The ones of Doug & I with the kids are pretty funny. It will be years until we get a real family pic - although it is our real life for sure… no one sitting still at the same time. Please book early so we can get you your preferred time.
Tomorrow night is sweater club and next week is Quick Sew (we haven’t decided a project yet) and that Sunday is Easter so we will be closed for the holiday and not having sock club. For those of you wanting to try your hand at basic quilting and sewing join us in April for our 2nd Weekend Warrior Workshop. I’ll be running a Quick Trip Around the World Quilt class Saturday and Sunday for $150 (not including materials but you get a 20% discount on Amy Butler if you are registered for the class). Check out the current class listing - take a class, plan a party or sign up a kid for summer or April vacation camp.
Thanks - Talk soon,
Annissa
