Dear friend of KISSed Quilts,
I'm feeling so much better than a month ago! Thank you for all your well wishes....I'm long-arming and sending orders. I so appreciate those of you from far away who are purchasing through the website and having me ship you orders. I've had a few summer visitors stop by on their travels which has been super fun to see you!
No, we haven't moved yet ...but we are making progress. Unfortunately we have decided that a new roof is necessary so we are working on getting a company to do this ...probably in September.
For the last week of July I sent out a 'Product Specials' bulletin with a sale and only a couple of people took advantage of it. Are you not on the Product Specials list? Sign up here!
I'm excited to share that we have 30+ people signed up for retreat (Oct. 17-21, $260 dorm style accomodations with one or two people per room, bring your own linens). We could take a few more people so if you've been holding out, now is the time to sign-up. Once we reach 36 quilters (we have some husbands coming to just enjoy the camp trails and relaxing by the lake), I'll take a wait list in case anyone has to cancel last minute. Last chance to sign up is Sept. 1. Each person who has signed up and still has a balance was emailed on Monday this week with your specific details (due Sept. 1).
September is the first in-person regional 'market' for our industry since 2020 and I plan on going. Are there products that you'd like to have more readily available? Looking for anything in particular? Be sure to let your wishes be known!
I'll be participating in a special event on Labor Day - September 5 in the evening ...online...so mark your calendar to be a part of this special LIVE!
Lincoln County Fair - Aug. 25-27. Turn in Quilts Tues. Aug. 23 noon-8pm and Wed. Aug. 24 7am-10am.
Volunteers are being requested and for every 2 hour shift you work, your name will be entered into a drawing for $50 gift certificate to your favorite quilt shop. Contact June Jasman phone: 509-771-5685 or email jdjasman@live.com for additional details.
The new issue of the Country Register is out with my latest design - Lace Posies. Stop in for your copy or look for it in your local quilt shop. This design uses AnglePlay Set 1 and patterns are available in print or PDF form. Please make an appointment if you'd like to drive in for a special shopping experience. I've been scheduled to teach but due to a COVID outbreak it has been tentatively cancelled but might just be postponed, so I don't know which day I'll be gone. I look forward to seeing you or shipping a package to you soon!
