Dear friend of KISSed Quilts,
We've been working on a variety of events coming up soon and want to be sure you know all the details.
September/October event - White Bluffs Quilt Museum Shop Hop
 Stop in during the White Bluffs Quilt Museum Shop Hop -- proceeds of all passport sales ($10/passport) go to support the Quilt Museum. September 21-October 6, 2024 --note I am closed on Saturdays but am looking forward to being open extended hours Sunday - Friday 9am-5pm just for you. Make plans now to stop by during this special event. You're welcomed and encouraged to place extended orders online at least one day in advance. Just choose 'pick-up' and in the check-out notes let me know when you'll be coming to the shop. Free FQ at each shop w/purchase.
If you'd like to make a run early or late to our end of the loop, please don't hesitate to call and see if I can meet you outside my normal hours Sunday - Friday.
There are 21 stops listed in the passports.
Here is an approximate route for all the shops (I can only show 10 per map). It is over 2 weeks, so plenty of time to break this up depending upon what your starting point is. If you've always wanted to see the laser light show, consider coming up to KISSed Quilts in the afternoon and spend the night. The laser show will only continue through the end of September --every night at 8:30pm.

September: Brown
The Blog Post will go up on September 8 and has some tricks for trimming these quarter-square triangles.
September/October - Sew-ins, Special Events and Closures
Closed Saturdays
Sew-ins --Due to the heat surging again I'm not sure about the first two Mondays --so let me know if you're interested and we'll consider the opportunity in the moment. If coming to shop in-person--please text or call me ahead of time with an ETA so I can be sure to be at the shop. (Thank you!)
Sept 16 - Sew-in? please RSVP
Note the last 2 Mondays of the month coincide with the White Bluffs Quilt Museum Shop Hop so I'll be staying in the shop.
We're working hard on the renovation right now too, so sometimes I'm up at 219, so please--just call if you show up to 301 and I'm not there. New fabrics continue to arrive but I just don't have space for them in 301. I'll continue to add to the website for now.
Sept 19 and 20 - CLOSED -- please keep us in your prayers as my husband undergoes medically necessitated dual jaw adjustment surgery.

Proposing Spring 2025 - Quilt Retreat
Considering March 10-14, 2025 at Camp MiVoden on Hayden Lake, Idaho -- are you interested? We need to gather sufficient interest to actually offer it, so I'm giving you the opportunity now to express interest. We've not hosted a retreat that early in the year, so the fireplace will likely be appreciated in the cafeteria space, but the All Pacific Northwest (ALL Washington and Oregon) Shop Hop will be happening April and May of 2025 so I will not be going away for extended periods during those two months. We expect to be in our new space by then and I am excited to share the experience with all the shoppers myself. Just email me back with your interest if you'd like me to put you on the list for this proposed Spring retreat in March 2025. If we get sufficient interest within the next couple of months we'll then send out more details. If you've not considered attending a retreat with me before, feel free to checkout the details of the space on our event page.
Your in-person shopping and online orders are much appreciated! Please don't miss new products shared below.

New Products
Season's Study by Wilmington Prints - yardage of each item in the collection
 
Check out all Pre-cuts --just in are some new LayerCakes from MODA MSRP $47.99 I'm offering at $39.99.
The colorwall that I chose many years ago is Northcott Toscana. They have come out with 25 new colors and they have started to arrive. The cost of these fabrics has gone up since I originally brought them in, but it has worked for many of you to add just the right shade of a color to your project so that you could get it done. These are currently $9.75/yd and will be through October 20 ....the price will then go up to $11.25/yd for all Northcott Toscana. Now is a great time to stock up on these.
There are also a few colors that have been DISCONTINUED --so ask me which ones I've got left if you want to reserve some for your own stash.
Maybe, in the past, you participated in our monthly club acquiring complete color sets or purchased sets in various cut sizes of the original colors. Would you like a bundle of 1/2 yard cuts ($99), 1/4 yd ($55) cuts of just these 25 new colors? Let me know via email--this is an exclusive offer shared here only.
Hope to see you or see your order soon! Thanks for reading.
