Greetings from your friends at Sew Fabulous


Hello From Sew Fabulous,

WHAT'S HAPPENING
I'm so sorry that I missed sending out my newsletter last Mondy...the day just got away from me. I'll try to make it up with a few fun things in this letter. Be sure to read to the end.

Special announcement: Cancelling the Mystery Quilt Make Up Session on April 7.


OPPORTUNITIES
Quilting 101: I've had many people asking for a learn to quilt class so here it is. This is a 3-Part Class, April 15, 22 and 29 starting at 10:00 to Noon. In this class you will learn basic quilting terminology, tools and techniques. The cost, $50, covers all three days (I'm sorry, no partial refunds.) Space is limited so sign up soon. To read more details and sign up for this class, go to @ https://mysewfab.com/module/class/492548/quilting-101.

FUN PROJECT #1: Do you like to make small bags? Take a look at this fun Zipper Pouches project from https://weallsew.com


Speaking of making bags, I have a really fun one for our Old Bag Ladies and Gents Club on April 1 (click this link to sign up for the class). It's the Folding Wallet bag from ByAnnie. This pattern has been around a while; in fact, it's one of Annie's first patterns. There are 2 samples in the store for you to check out - one uses Soft and Stable and one uses interfacing and no quilting so it doesn't require as much pre-work. Wouldn't you like to make this beautiful little wallet out of your favorite fabrics from Sew Fabulous? Don't forget, until March 25 our fabrics are 15% off (minimum 1 yard cut from the bolt). 


NEW/INTERESTING ITEMS
 Pre-printed labels

We have this beautiful quilt hanging in the store - didn't Barb do a great job quilting it? We still have one kit available.


We have one more full kit of the Rainbow Sampler.


FUN PROJECT #2: I just love the whimsical feel of this quilted pillow from our friends at Janome. What colors would you use? https://www.janome.com/inspire/projects/accessories/mix-it-pillow-tutorial/
