Sometimes
the little things in life bring us the most happiness......a few weeks
ago we had our plumber out for a repair. While he was at the shop, we
asked him to install a water heater in the bathroom. If you've ever
washed your hands at the shop during the winter you know the water can
be very cold. In fact, Kay's commented many times that our tap water is
colder than water coming out of the tap on top of Pike's Peak. Next
time you're at the shop, feel free to enjoy a nice warm hand
wash......remember it's the little things......
The recent
rainy weather has likely kept you inside and, hopefully, stitching. If
that's the case, you may be looking for a new project. We have several
to share this week.
Debby did a beautiful job on "He
Restores". Your $24.95 kit includes the pattern, fabric for the top,
binding, wool, backing fabric and small red flower buttons. It finishes
14" x 19 1/4". We love the hanger she chose and have it available for
$14.95. Let us know if we can reserve a kit and/or hanger for you.

We're sad to see Lynette Anderson's Seaside Town block of the month
end. The final shipment goes out in April. Now that the program has
ended, Lynette is offering the entire pattern set. The Seaside Town set
includes 12 patterns with buttons -- please note -- the buttons
included in the pattern set are unpainted raw wood. The quilt finishes 34" x 44". Price for the complete pattern set is $168 (no fabric is included). |

The summer issue of Primitive Quilts & Projects magazine will
arrive in a couple of weeks. If you're on auto ship, we will process
your order as soon as we receive the magazine. If you're not on auto
ship and would like to be, please e-mail (info@sewgracefulquilting.com)
or call 479-372-7403 and we'll get you on the list.
We love
doing the math to find out the cost per project - 16 projects contained
in a $9.99 magazine makes each project cost 63 cents. |

"High on the Hilltop" is Kay's project in the summer issue of Primitive
Quilts & Projects magazine. We have kits ready to pick up or be
mailed. Your $34.95 kit includes fabric for the top and binding - you
will need the magazine for the pattern. This is the second in a series
of seasonal table toppers - the spring project was "Bees in the
Meadow" which is pictured in the second photo below (kits are $38.95 -
you will need the spring issue of Primitive Quilts & Projects
magazine for the pattern).
Let us know if you'd like to reserve a magazine or kit(s) by emailing info@sewgracefulquilting or calling 479-372-7403. |

Thread kits for both table toppers are also available. Both contain
Valdani perle cotton size 12. The High on the Hilltop kit includes 4
balls of thread (1, PT2, O506, 200) and is $19.80. The Bees in the
Meadow thread kit includes 6 balls (JP6, O563, 311, JP7, P4, O511) and
is $29.70. Let us know if you need either (or both) kits and we'll
include them with the kit. |

As you're planning your spring outings, don't forget to include a visit
to the Ozark Country Quilters show April 6 (9:00-6:00) and April 7
(9:00-4:00) at Crowder College, 4020 N Main, Cassville MO. Kay will be
vending at the show. Due to a scheduling conflict, we will not be
vending at the Springfield MO show this fall so the Cassville show is
the last time we'll be in Missouri for the year.......a good excuse to
plan a Missouri road trip.
Two area shows are scheduled April
13 & 14. The Calico Cut-Ups Guild of Bella Vista AR show will be
held at the Bella Vista Assembly of God Church, 1771 Forest Hills Blvd,
Friday 9:00-6:00 & Sat 9:00-4:00. For more info visit http://www.calicocut-ups.org/
The Muskogee Area Quilters Guild show will be held at the St Paul
Methodist Church, 2130 W Okmulgee, Muskogee OK, 9:00-4:00 on Friday and
Saturday. For more info e-mail Pegge at mdcond@aol.com or call her at
707-694-9468. You can also visit the guild on Facebook (Muskogee Area
Quilters Guild). |

See you soon!
