Mindfulness! It’s what we put ‘into’ the project, whether it be quilting, stitching, knitting, etc. that gives it heart…no matter how it is accepted by the recipient.

Looking for quality yarn? Ewe and Me is moving and having a sale. They are currently located on Beaver St in York, between Philadelphia and Market Sts.

We need a little help. We don’t want to pack the clearance yarns, so until we move clearance yarns are an extra 20% off! This doesn’t include the deep discount baskets.

Another successful day in the Classroom! Under the tutelage of Dottie Arnold, these three ladies completed their table topper using a pattern from Sweet Treasures Designs which was adapted into the QAYG technique.

We love it when we can send our students home with completed projects…not another UFO.

Next Saturday features the Dresden technique to make a Dresden in My Garden” wall hanging. Register online by Tuesday so you have time to gather your fabrics and supplies. The Creative Grids ruler is required.

What a great day in the Classroom! We made patchwork bows using the ‘Knot’ Your Average Bow. At the end of class, everyone agreed that they are like Lays Potato Chips…you can’t make just one!! We have one more class scheduled to make a bow on Nov 10th from 5:30 -8:30. May we save you a seat? You can register online.

Then we welcomed two new sewists in the Get to Know Your Sewing Machine class. They made a small pouch with a zipper to commemorate their accomplishment…but I forget to take pictures! 🥳👏😖
