Beehive Shop Hop

Wow!  The Beehive Shop Hop is over until next year.  We hope that you enjoyed it as much as we did.  The theme this year was "Somewhere in Time".  We chose "The 60's" for our shop.  We played "Spin the Bottle" and had pictures from the 60's to stand on, and played actual records from the 60's.  Yes, we are still hanging on to those.  (Does that date some of us or not?)

Our shop quilt had all the blocks from all 17 stores incorporated into it.  Of course, our block "Flower Power" was in the center.

We also just had to use batiks, the background looked tie-dyed!

 
We are going to donate this quilt to "Festival of Trees". So, if you missed seeing it in the store, you can surely see it there.

Congratulations to all those who won something during the Shop Hop.  We are looking forward to seeing you soon!

Utah Row by Row Experience

We are really enjoying having all of you in for the Row by Row Experience!  It has been fun seeing those we know and meeting the new.  Sorry to say that I have made some mistakes on the pattern.  If you have already picked up your pattern, you will need to make the following corrections:  BEACH UMBRELLA - cut the gray 1" x 15".  Step #3 - Square block to 9 1/2".  BEACH BALL & FLIP FLOPS - Step #1, cut the strips to 5" x wof.  Cut into 5" lengths after sewing.  Step #2, square the blocks to 9 1/2".  All the patterns from here on out, have been corrected. 

You still have plenty of time to start collecting patterns for the Utah Row by Row Experience.  Check it out on facebook or look up the website at www.rowbyrowexperience.com.  The experience goes to September 2, 2014. 

We hope that you are having fun with this Row by Row Shop Hop!

Shop Hop Frenzy

Well,  this past week has been very eventful!  On Tuesday morning someone broke into the shop.  Nothing was taken, just some damage to the doors.  We are so grateful to all our wonderful customers and their support.

Shop Hop started on Wednesday and ran through Saturday.  Over 600 people came through our shop during that time.  Everyone received a "cupcake" with candle as they entered the store.  We had fun playing a floor game and having a "Frog Toss".  Silly Birthday Cake hats were the attire for the employees.  Prizes were given, passports stamped and cookies and punch eaten.  The Birthday Bash block was handed out to anyone who wanted it.  The Birthday Bash Banner kit was available for purchase for those who wanted to hang a quilt block for different events during the coming months. There are a few of the banner kits still available.  We hope that everyone had a great time.  We sure did!

Congratulations to Pat Horrocks of West Valley City.  She won the grand prize of a Baby Lock Symphony Sewing Machine!  Arnell Wamsley (West Jordan) and Tamara Smith (Riverton) were the recipients of the $50 Gift Certificates.  Deb Niven was the lucky winner of the store's "Tisket, Tasket" quilt kit.  Congratulations to all!
