SHOWS

Come visit us at our upcoming shows!
Georgia Quilt Show-Atlanta, GA; October 14-16 2010

location: Gwinnett Center-Duluth, GA

website: http://www.sewingexpo.com/GeorgiaQuiltShow.aspx

description: The debut of Georgia Quilt Show was welcomed with wide-open arms by quilters from Georgia and surrounding states alike. Students immersed themselves in classes taught by nationally known teachers and spent countless hours combing the vendor mall for the newest fabrics and latest in quilting tools and techniques. The diversity of pieces entered in the quilt competition quickly became the focal point of Georgia Quilt Show. NQA Judges Linda McCuean and Holice Turnbow were on hand for judging, and awarded cash prizes of over $4,000 in six categories. They selected their personal favorites, which received Judge’s Choice awards. Area guilds and members of the Georgia Quilt Council are to be commended for their assistance in judging, hanging the quilts, hostessing and repacking the quilts for return shipping. It takes many hands working in concert to assemble a Premier event – in Georgia Quilt Show we’ve found a recipe for success!

We are sooo excited to bring you five new patterns and a new book from Serendipity Studios! We met the talented designer/author, Kay Whitt, at this year's spring fabric market and fell in love with her new book Sew Serendipity, and her skirt and dress patterns! She has bright, modern and easy to make designs that we hope you love as much as we do! Also all of our books have been signed by the author!

Here is a picture of the cover of Sew Serendipity:

American Sewing Guild-ASG Conference 2010

2010-07-27T07:39:00.000-07:00

ASG Conference-2010

8 Days until the conference! We are so excited for our first year participating in the American Sewing Guild Annual Conference in Atlanta, GA. We usually do quilting shows or quilting/sewing shows but this will be our first time at an all sewing show! How fun! We are especially looking forward to this show because it is close to home being in Atlanta.

Here is a description from the conference brochure:

"...from August 4–9, 2010, Atlanta is the place where ASG members from across the nation
will convene for ASG Conference 2010. Come and learn the best, the newest, the fastest, the most
professional techniques for all things sewing from 40 instructors teaching more than 100 workshops, seminars, and lectures in two-day, all-day, halfday, two-hour, and 90-minute formats. And when you’re not learning about sewing, you can shop for all things sewing in the vendor packed exhibit hall. These things alone make Atlanta worth the trip. . . but there’s more! Special events include Thursday evening’s Exhibit Hall Preview Night, Friday evening’s Member/Instructor/Exhibitor Fashion Show, Saturday’s Wear Your ASG Patterns Day, and inspiring exhibits, including the Art Bra Exhibit from The Way to Women’s Wellness Foundation, the Designer’s Challenge from the Handweavers Guild of America, and a selection of Bernina Fashion Show garments created by ASG members..."

It looks like it's going to be a fantastic sewing week! We hope all of you will come visit us in Booth #417/419.

Happy Sewing,

Jenna

Grand Bazaar Fabrics- Weddings

My sister Allison got married this summer in June and she used Grand Bazaar Fabrics in her decorations! Her colors were navy and violet. She decided to use some of our Michael Miller fabric for her table runners. My mom, Elizabeth, sewed them and it turned out magnificent! We loved being able to add something special to her wedding day! Congratulations Allison!
