25th Anniversary Sale and Raffle


25th Anniversary Sale and Raffle
Our 25th anniversary sale will start this Saturday, June 20 and will run through Sunday, July 12, except for July 4 when we will be closed.  Since our 25th anniversary is on July 4th, we are featuring Sue’s trademark Firecracker Fat Quarter Bundles.  This year the bundles consist of 25 Fat Quarters for $25.  Plus, for each Firecracker bundle you purchase, you may complete a coupon to enter our fabulous Firecracker Raffle.  The prize is a $250 gift certificate to Country Treasures!  The winner will be selected on July 12.
 Sue has also marked down dozens of tablerunners and wall hangings to $25.  But you know Sue, she’s almost a firecracker herself, once she gets going there’s no stopping her.  She has also marked down bundles of 6 half yards, many Block-of-the-Month patterns and kits, 5 yd. bundles of flannel, and many other kits and books.  Sue has also assembled kits to make the beautiful set of Abigail basket blocks which were featured at the 2012 VQF, see photo below.  Sue is still at work preparing some unique kits for patterns featured in the Talking Quilts and Friends book.  Who knows what else she might come up with?
 
 
Row by Row Experience 2015
The 2015 Row by Row Experience also starts this Sunday, June 21.  Learning from last year, our first time to participate, in addition to our free pattern and mini-bundle kits, we have license plates already in stock. Here is a photo of Sue’s 2015 Row by Row which is called Seaglass.  Don’t be scared of the curves, broad curves like these are simple, particularly with a curvy ruler like Sue used.  If you haven’t heard of the Row by Row Experience please check it out on Facebook or navigate to www.rowbyrowexperience.com.  This year’s theme is H2O and we have some special fabrics from Timeless Treasures which feature that theme.
