2022 Saturday Sampler - Plum Fusion 

Welcome to the 2022 Saturday Sampler Program!  We would love for you to join us to make this beautiful quilt. This beauty finishes at 108” square. You can optionally change the design by stopping at the center and skipping the four setting corners, however the price below remains the same and you will receive all fabrics. The dates for the next four months are Jan 8, Feb 5, Mar 5, Apr 2 with dates for the future listed in the upcoming newsletters. Click on the picture above or here to watch a short video about this program amd see this quilt and the vibrant colors that really look better in person (yes, the quilt is hanging at the shop!).

About the Quilt:

The one time program fee includes the cost of the pattern, the 18.5 yards fabric for the top and binding.  It does NOT include the 10 yards required for the backing.  We will taking orders for the backing fabric soon and will require a $25.00 deposit to reserve your backing with the balance due when it is received. The backing price includes a 15% discount on the fabric.

Class Time:

You can attend either the 10:00 am or 11:00 am session, your choice.  We will have up to 100 people enrolled in this program and limited seating.  Arriving a little early (we will open the shop at 9:45) will help get you a seat.

This Is How It Works:

We have two options with two different prices. Option 1 (in-person) cost is $166.00. Option 2 (flexi) cost is $186.00. See below for more information on each option. Additionally, we are offering an optional “Oops Kit” which will include a fat-quarter of each of the 12 fabrics (3 yards total) for just $34.80. These prices are deeply discounted from full retail. Click here to order the In-Person Option. Click here to order the Flexi Option. Click here to order the Oops Kit. You can also enter "2022" in the search window on our website to make your selections, or call or come into the shop where we have the quilt hanging for you to see.

Option 1 (In-Person): On the designated Saturday each month, we will open the shop before regular store hours.  The block with be introduced along with a short demonstration of a technique or a tool that is used to make the block.  Note: The “Folded Corner Clipper” Ruler, Tucker Trimer 1  and the “Wing Clipper Ruler” will be used throughout the year and are highly recommended.  You will take your kit home and make the block.  You MUST bring it back the following month, completed.  If you so do, the fabric for the following month's block will be provided to you free of charge.  You are also invited to participate in the "Show &Tell" at the start of each session.  Any quilts are welcome! Also, typically prior to the class we will post a YouTube video that will demonstrate that month’s technique to serve as a reference tool during the month. This has proven to be very helpful.

Can't make it to the meeting or didn't make the block?  You must pay $10.00, regardless of the reason, to receive your next month's block.  You cannot send a friend in your place.  If you miss a meeting, the block fabric will be available from that Saturday forward, not any earlier.

There is one more condition, you must show up on time and stay for the entire session.  We will give you one coupon good for one free "no whining pass".  You can use this one time during the year if you miss a session or do not make your block. 

So, in summary, the system is easy - bring back you block to the next session in person and you get the next kit.  No show or no block = $10.00 for the next kit (or use your one free pass).

Option 2 (Flexi): There is no requirement for you to attend the Saturday sessions. You simply pick-up your block anytime after we release them on the designated Saturday each month. Alternative, we will mail you each block plus cost of the postage. You are still welcome to attend the Saturday demonstrations but will not be subject to any penalties if you have not completed your block prior to attending. You will always have the YouTube videos available for reference.

If interested, please sign up soon as space is limited and we will be closing the program to new sign-ups December 5th.
