Preparing for setup tomorrow at the Craft Alive event, so will be flat out then.
It's at the Morphettville Racecourse - Endeavour Homes Pavilion, 79 Morphett Road,  Morphettville, SA 5043.
I will have lots of goodies at sale prices, and some quilts for sale including the quirky "Menopause" wall hanging @ $99. Plus a new quilt kit "Lulu Ladybugs" @ $64. And for a special treat, we have decided the time was right for a Pattern Pack for The "Country Garden" Quilt at an introductory price of $50. Open Friday 8th - Sunday 10th. So come and see me if possible at Stand 50, or contact us by email. Cheers Dianne.

IMPORTANT NEWS!

After 19 years in the shop, 18 at Victor Harbor, I decided the time was right, so I announced officially yesterday that we would not be renewing our lease and the shop will be closing at the end of the financial year. I will be continuing with the Quilt fairs, with Melbourne and Sydney scheduled in a few weeks time.

UPCOMING EVENT!

We're in flat out mode preparing for the first of this year's events at Rosehill for the Stitches & Craft Fair, from March 6-9. The loaded pallet has to be ready for pickup in under 2 weeks, at least this year we have an empty pallet to work with, after problems last year. It's always a relief to see the truck on it's way and on time!
