October 2024 - Anderson Fabric Sales and Newsletter






Do you ever want to just have time slow down?  This month is just flying by.  We are just trying to keep up with life here at the shop!  We’ve had two classes this month and have plans for one in October.  Sandy will do a paper piecing class making a pumpkin table mat.  If you have a class idea, let us know.  We will find someone to teach it. 

We have new store hours: M-F 9-5, Sat 10-3. Winter months the shop will close at 4 starting in November. But as always if you know you are coming and need us to stay later just call ahead and let us know! 

How often do you look at our website?  Moda had some fun patterns for Project Jelly Roll this last month, I have put those on our website as a free download.  Go to Shop tab, then Patterns tab, then Free Patterns to download those patterns.  

What inspires you?  Do you need to see a quilt in person, do you see a fabric and just love it and have to make something from that? Is there a technique that inspires you to make something? Do you have a bestie that you sew with that keeps challenging you to try new things? Is it the creative process that keeps you sewing or the beautiful things that you make that keeps you stitching…  This is the thought that I had when preparing to send this newsletter out.  There are more ways to be inspired, hopefully you know what inspires you.   We have two items in the future in the newsletter, a new Block of the Month for 2025 and a retreat in March.   Hope these are something that might inspire you.

Did Someone Say a Retreat? 

A few people were interested in retreat, so we’ve been looking for a place.  And I think we have found one.  We are going to host a retreat in Staples MN at “The Landmark Inn”

https://www.landmarkinnretreats.com/

It is a renovated former church that sleeps about 20 people.  We have reserved the dates of March 19-23.  A Wednesday -Sunday.  It looks like there are 6 rooms for sleeping, the great room is the old sanctuary. Two tables are provided for each person and additional lighting.  There is a full kitchen, people could food share, cater it in or go out. For now, we are looking for interest.  The rates are: Wed.- Sun. is $200, min. stay is Thursday - Sun. $160. Call the shop if you are interested.
