Well, with only 2 days left of the 5th Annual State of Maine Quilt Shop Hop, I for one am breathing a sigh of relief! We had so many more hoppers than we expected that I could barely keep up with them! Thanks to all you happy hoppers - I can't wait to call you when you've won!
Upcoming Classes at MCQS (see our website class page for full descriptions)
Wonder Wallet - Wednesday 5/7, 1-3pm
Pine Needles Workshop - Saturday 5/10, 1:30-2:30
Strip Delight - Wednesdays starting 5/14, 1-4pm
Jelly Bargelly - Saturday 5/17, 10:30-4:30
This weekend will be full of fun in downtown Bath as we all celebrate May Day with Mayfair! In addition to the city-wide yard sales, downtown merchants will have specials. We will have amazing fabric deals that you won't believe and won't want to miss. Twelve merchants are also participating in a scavenger hunt on Saturday 5/3. Find all twelve hidden items at the participating shops to be entered to win a $120 Gift of Bath gift certificate! (We are one of the 12). Go to the visitbath.com website for more info.
As always we hope to see you soon in Downtown Bath!
Happy Quilting!

Happy Hoppers
The 5th Annual State of Maine Quilt Shop Hop is well into the second week and we've already had as many hoppers as all of last year! Thank you all for supporting this fun idea and supporting your local quilt shops.
We've had many new fabrics arrive including much sought after 3Sisters favorites from moda which are on their way to retirement. This is you last chance to stock up on favorites from previous groups like Seaside Rose, Hollywood and Vine and others. They won't last folks. Stop in soon. Also new is Jitterbug from Andover, designed by a scrapbooking paper company. We're hoping our local scrapbooking shop might carry the coordinating papers!
Next week is our monthly Stash Pot Pie and Bath Quilter's Group on Tuesday 4/15 (done your taxes folks?). Please RSVP for Stash Pot Pie at 5:30 if you're not already on the list. See our previous post for all the specifics about this next meeting. Join the quilters at 6:00 for their informal and casual jaunt through the quilting world. Plus out Quilter's Happy Hour, an unadvertised special, from 4-8pm.
New classes are now posted on the class page of the website - more to come.
If you're looking for a copy of my mom's book, A Isn't for Fox, good luck! All the distributors and warehouses in our end of the world are out of stock! Her book is already in a second printing. When you do get copies, don't forget that you can have them signed right here at Mariner's Compass. Visit mom's blog for her current list of appearances (there's a link on the right side of his blog).
All for now (I hear a "mama?" from afar).
Happy Quilting & Happy Hopping!
