There is an air of excitement around the shop! After a good start in June,
our 2019 Row by Row Experience has settled into a steady flow of
kit sales and pattern giveaways. Last Tuesday our day started somewhat quietly as most summer days do, but it ended with a bang when Cindy M. came proudly into the store! A few of the girls remembered seeing her previously when she had purchased our Row by Row kit. On this visit to our store,
Miss Cindy announced, "I have my completed Row by Row quilt!" And then she proceeded to show us her awesome quilt! Cindy recently moved here from Colorado and strategically collected her rows as she traversed several Western states en route to her new home in Arizona. After settling in the Far East valley, she traveled over 70 miles across town to purchase our Row kit to finish her quilt! We are so happy she came back here to claim her prize!! This beautiful quilt is hanging proudly on display in our store! Thanks, Cindy for making the trek to Arizona Quilts and especially for including our Row in your awesome quilt!
The next super exciting thing to happen this week is that
Passports for the 2019 "Dash Through The Desert" Shop Hop
go on sale this Friday, Aug. 16th.
For just $7.50 you receive a Passport and a charm. If you complete the Hop, you are entered for a chance to win a Bernina 350 sewing machine, a $100 gift cert. or a gift basket filled with a lot of great sewing items any quilter would love - valued at over $200!
This year there are only 8 stores to travel to, making it
easier to complete the Hop circuit!
We sure hope that you can get in and purchase your passport soon
as they are available while supplies last!
Happy Busy Quilting!
