How sweet it is...

Don't forget our book signing with Wendy Ulmer this Saturday February 16th from 11am-1pm. She'll be signing copies of her new book A Isn't for Fox. See our earlier post, or the website, for all the information. http://www.marinerscompass.com/

And speaking of sweet, check out these tasty little morsels...

Here's Connor and Tucky (Connor's cousin of 9 months). Happy Valentine's Day!

Lovely quilting weather, eh?

Well, Connor would rather play anyway! Can you believe he's already 15 months old!

New fabrics at MCQS are pictured here...

Rain Garden from Windham Fabrics is actually a reproduction group of fabrics circa 1915! Those of you who know me will appreciate this line since you know I don't usually do repro or peach! It's beautiful!

Our ladies in class certainly had fun playing today! Our Changeables class, taught by Marcia O'Donnell, was a big hit because it gave our quilters so many choices! Cut your fabrics and choose from four different settings - from one set of cutting directions! Sound intriguing? Join us on 3/22 for our next Mystery! session with Barbara Jo Belanger. Similar set-up except you only see your project one step at a time. Always a good time - currently 3 spaces left. Call today!

Enjoy the snow - hunker down and sew!

Happy Quilting!

The Maiden Voyage

A Book Signing

Mariner’s Compass Quilt Shop & Bath Book Shop are happy to co-host a very special book signing on Saturday February 16th at MCQS from 11am – 1pm.

Children’s author Wendy Ulmer (aka Amanda’s mom) will be on hand to sign copies of her second children’s book,

A Isn’t for Fox – An Isn’t Alphabet.

This new book has been described as “jaunty” and “out of the box”, a valuable teaching tool – and it’s just downright fun! We hope you’ll join us in the celebration.

Copies of A Isn’t for Fox will be available for purchase at the signing. To guarantee a copy of your own, you can pre-order by calling Connie at Bath Book Shop at 443-9338. For more information call MCQS at 443-2900.
