Letter from the Editor

Summer days are on the way! Hurray! Hopefully that means more creative time for you. If you have been too busy to sew lately or be creative in any way, you need to find time. Taking time to use our hands, minds and energy doing something we love is of utmost importance in life. Being creative, in any form, is literally therapy for your mind. It relieves stress, increases and renews brain function and improves mood. Being creative also cultivates your social life. Especially when you visit us here at Quiltique!

We have so many things happening this summer to keep you healthy and happy…sewing! We have outstanding events and activities not just for you but for the creative young ones too. Summer means Camp Sew What for your budding sewists and this year it also means Row by Row Junior. That’s right, the kids now get to be involved in Row by Row when you travel this summer to your favorite quilt shops. How great is that!

In other big news… Bernina University 2017 is right here in Las Vegas this year! While you cannot attend this annual dealer only event, you CAN attend our very special BERNINA event immediately following. You will not only get to rub shoulders with Mr. BERNINA himself, Hanspeter Ueltschi, but also get an exclusive first glimpse at all the exciting new products that are launching in the coming year from BERNINA. How cool is that! We are bringing all the excitement of “BU” exclusively to you, our favorite BERNINA fans.

Another way you can be creative this summer with or without the sewing machine is to place an entry into our Country Fair. That’s right, we are bringing you the charm of summers in the country with our Quiltique Country Fair. Compete for that big blue ribbon and bragging rights with your best preserves, cookies or salsa. Would you rather sew? Then place an entry in our apron contest if you are better behind the machine than the stove. It is going to be a blast and whether you compete for a prize or not, please join us for some country summer fun and yumminess too! (That’s a word right?)

Before I go, I should mention that another way to be creative this summer is to party with us for our 14th Birthday Party “Color Your World”. Since creativity comes in all forms, we thought an adult coloring party would do the trick to help us keep our sanity too (besides sewing that is.). Plus you could win a shiny new and very colorful BERNINA Cotton + Steel sewing machine! Yep. We will see you there.

This is just a small sampling of the creative fun we have in store for you this summer. There are 24 pages here in the Stash of “can’t miss” events and classes so no excuses! Just be sure to take care of yourself by taking time to do something creative that you love, whatever it may be.

– Jennifer Albaugh and the entire Quiltique family

Building beautiful blocks, one barn board at a time…Abby Hicks of will be at Quiltique!

HOW TO MAKE A BARN QUILT 1/2-Day Hands-On Workshop Friday, June 9… 5pm – 8pm or Saturday, June 10 … 10am – 1pm Class Fee: $75 (includes your barn wood ready to paint) Paint your own original barn quilt with designer, author, and teacher, Abby Hicks. Each class participant will leave with a completed barn quilt and the know-how and inspiration to paint many more. Class fee includes your barn wood primed and ready for your design.

TWEETLE DEE DESIGNS

“A barn quilt is basically a large piece of wood that is painted to look like a large quilt block.

We have a long history in our country of hanging barn quilts outside our homes and barns. They were thought to bring good luck and prosperity. Some 200 years ago when there wasn’t enough paint to paint an entire barn, women would take a pattern of a quilt block that grandma had made and would paint barn quilts to hang on their barns. It was a way to decorate their farms and also was a source of family pride.” – Abby Hicks

Learn more about Abby and her beautiful barn quilts at www.tweetledeedesignco.com.

A Quiltique Country Fair Saturday July 29, 11am – 3pm Well, we don’t have a prize winning pig or a big red barn on a farm but that doesn’t mean we can’t fake it! Join us on Saturday July 29 as we bring the charm of the country to the city and a chance for you to win that big blue ribbon! And while there will not be carnival rides, there will be lots of good old fashioned country fair fun.

In the food category, we are looking for those of you who can can. Preserves that is! Or who can make the best homemade farm fresh salsa and the person who has the best cookies in four states. If you think your family recipe has what it takes, a $100 Quiltique Gift Card awaits you. Plus bragging rights will go to the winners in each food category and of course, that big blue ribbon!

The sewing category includes an apron design contest. Use the official Country Fair apron pattern and you will create the cutest down-home farm apron you can. A $100 Quiltique Gift Card will go to the first place winner. And of course a beautiful Quiltique Country Fair ribbon for the apron winner as well. Our honorary customer and teacher judges will decide the winners in each category and will be announced the same day.

The best part…everyone will get to sample a few of the goodies that are submitted for judging. Plus corn dogs and strawberry lemonade free for everyone! There will also be special savings in the shop during the fair as well as demonstrations on sewing and quilting products that we think should have a blue ribbon too.

So put on your boots and come on down! The Quiltique Country Fair is sure to be a country good time! If you are interested in submitting an entry in any category, please inquire in the shop for details and watch your inbox for more information this summer.

BERNINA MASTERY

These classes are open to any BERNINA Sewing Machine owner. Registration is necessary as class size is limited. Cancellation calls are appreciated as this allows another student to fill that space. There are workbook and sample kit fees for each mastery class. The class instruction fee is FREE if your machine was purchased at Quiltique. If you purchased your BERNINA elsewhere, we welcome you to our classes but there is a fee. (This fee may or may not be paid by your place of purchase. Please inquire at the BERNINA counter.)

PLEASE NOTE THIS CHANGE TO QUILTIQUE POLICY: As an added value to your machine or software purchase here at Quiltique, your first Mastery Classes are always included with your purchase. If after that, you feel you would benefit from re-taking any mastery class, please inform the staff and we would be happy to extend an additional round of mastery classes to you at no additional charge. However, any further Mastery Classes will incur the appropriate Mastery Class fee.

SEWING MACHINE & EMBROIDERY MASTERY These BERNINA classes will take you from setting up and threading your machine through all of the features that the machine offers. Follow along in your BERNINA Workbook while you work “hands on” to get the most out of your machine. *Manuals & kit purchase required ($15.00, $20.00 & $25.00).

We will have a presentation at 10am followed by a few words of wisdom from Mr. Ueltschi. He will be there to meet all of you BERNINA lovers, sign your machines and manuals and share stories. We will have a light breakfast for everyone and goodie bags for all who stop by. Come share in our excitement for BERNINA and the Swiss family tradition that makes us all proud to be part of the BERNINA family!

Mr. Ueltschi has a very special gift for those who purchase a new BERNINA while he is here and we will have very special financing to make that happen for you. So if a new machine has been on your mind…this would be the perfect day.

Week-long Sew Camp for Kids

Always a sell-out, our popular summer camp for young sewists is back with new projects for 2017! Camp Sew What is a creative opportunity for your kids aged 10-16 to get an introduction to sewing on their very own sewing machine! They will learn their way around a sewing machine, learn and practice basic machine techniques, and make several finished projects including their first simple quilt.

Our kid-friendly staff will lead students through a series of various projects giving them an opportunity to learn different sewing skills and practice what they’ve learned. In addition to small skill-building projects, students will make a pillowcase, a stuffed owl, and finish their week by piecing a simple strip quilt and tying the top.

The $369 cost includes: – Their very own Eversewn Sparrow15 machine!** – Professional instruction – Printed Class Patterns – All the fabrics students will need…their choice!

– Sewing & project notions including a sewing kit and thread colors – Healthy snacks each day and a pizza party on the last day!

This is a great opportunity for your kids to be creative, learn a valuable and lifelong skill, increase their confidence and have a unique experience during their summer break.

A payment plan of 3 payments is available. Any camp cancellations after 7/3/17 will incur a $50 cancellation fee. **Upgrade your child’s sewing machine! Very special savings if you choose to upgrade your child’s machine. Get a Sparrow 20 for a $475 camp fee (a 15% machine savings) or a Sparrow 25 for a $509 camp fee (a 20% machine savings). See shop for details on all these quality machines at a great value.

PLEASE NOTE: This week-long class is for children 10 and over who want to learn how to sew. We will not be using rotary cutters, but we will be using pins, needles, scissors, hot irons, and sewing machines. You know your child best. We ask that students have the maturity to follow instructions and be careful in a potentially dangerous environment. A waiver of liability must be signed by the parent/guardian of the student.

Special Quilt Programs Travel Dates: June 21st thru September 5th Summer means Row by Row and this year we are ON THE GO! Row by Row On The Go! is 2017’s theme and we’ll be participating again here at Quiltique. We’re super excited about Row by Row Experience’s brand new program, Row by Row Junior, too! It’s designed for kids ages 6 to 14. They travel along with an adult and can collect free row patterns designed just for them to make.

Row by Row Junior follows the same rules and time schedule as adult Row by Row Experience, June 21 through Labor Day. Kids need to be in the shop to get the free pattern handout, but anyone can buy a kit. Grandmothers and traveling family can bring them home as gifts or souvenirs. Row by Row Junior designed the five different row patterns so you can be sure they are kid-friendly.

We’ll be awarding “I Made This!” ribbons to the first five kids who return with something made using a Row by Row Junior pattern. Any sewing effort will be celebrated, not just quilting. Find Row by Row Junior’s free online activities, kids’ journal pages, support for learning to sew at home, and more at www.rowbyrowexperience.com this summer.

“We want our kids to learn how to sew and carry on this craft that’s so dear to us,” explains Janet Lutz, Row by Row’s founder.

“Traveling to new places, collecting something just for them, visiting Grandma, summer vacation...this is all part of the wonder and excitement of Row by Row Experience. Please join us.”
