Embroidery Quilt Club

Virginia Jennings

This club is free and meets the first Thursday

of every month at 9:30 am at the

Downtown store, 111 Pattie. Some of us

are working on the Simon’s Folly quilt and

some on the Latte Quilt. More and more

quilts are having some embroidery in

them , but you do not need to do embroidery

to join this club. We meet to fellowship

and encourage one another in whatever

quilt we want to do. You will see

some beautiful quilts being made and we

want to see what you are working on. You

will get new ideas and new techniques;

sharing of patterns and fabric is encouraged.

Each meeting there will be a door

prize, so be sure to get your name into the

drawing.

If you have been thinking of buying an

embroidery machine, now would be a

good time. Not only will you learn how to

use the machine, but have an Heirloom

quilt to show for your efforts. At Midwest

Sewing you will find Embroidery/sewing

and Embroidery only machines at all price

ranges and terms to fit your budget.

Please call the 111 Pattie Store at 262-

3438 or the West Midwest Store at 722-

9737 to sign up for this class .
