from the
Welcome 2015! I am totally jazzed for the opportunities and events we already have lined up for you in the coming year! January brings my new favorite holiday…Visit your LOCAL QUILT SHOP DAY. This day is always filled with fun… from a terrific event with Wilmington Fabrics and a great friend of the shop, Kay McCain (Yes, that Kay!) to discounts, freebies and new free Bonus Bucks. February is just going to be over the top with TULA!!! I can’t begin to tell you how excited we all are for this visit. It is going to be a short and sweet one, but none the less terrific. Make sure to get on the list early as it is going to be a sellout! March will hold the Henderson Quilt Show and it is always an event enjoyed by all. Worldwide Quilting Day is also in March and that is a great time to celebrate the joys of quilting! Come April we will celebrate our 12th year in business. Need I say more! I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. It has been a blessed 2014 and we here at Quiltique wish you peace, love and joy this holiday season and always. Sincerely, Jennifer and the Quiltique Family

Fire Island Hosta A Special Judy Niemeyer Journey
Have you always wanted to make a Niemeyer quilt but feel intimidated by the complexity of it? Well… fear no more! We are here to help! Join Cathy as she walks you through this stunning 100” square queen sized quilt by Judy and Bradley Niemeyer. We have broken this quilt into six different classes so that you are not alone for any of the “hard” parts. This quilt includes new Niemeyer paper piecing techniques such as curves as well as the traditional spikes and peaks. Cathy has made many of Judy’s quilts and can easily show you how it is done. That is what taking classes is all about! We have also made purchasing a quilt like this much easier by offering it to you in six easy payments. You can come to all six classes with Cathy and get your Fire Island Hosta Queen quilt fabric kit for only $89 per month for six months. If you would like to make this quilt but don’t need the classes, it is available to you for $69 per month for six months. The pattern is sold separately for $84.99 and includes all the directions and paper piecing papers you need to complete the quilt. Classes will begin in February and be on the second Monday of each month. See page 7 for details. (If you have not taken Paper Piecing 101 with Cathy previously, you will need to also do this in January.) This is a great opportunity to make a beautiful Niemeyer quilt from beginning to end with help all along the way. Challenge yourself and join us!

Breakfast Club 2015 VINTAGE QUILT REVIVAL
Are you ready for another year of quilt block fun? Breakfast Club 2015 has finally arrived or should we say…Revived! This year’s book Vintage Quilt Revival “is at the forefront of the burgeoning interest in the traditional-made-modern movement”. Make no mistake, the blocks in this book are traditional blocks, but the authors and Andrea will show you how to make the blocks fresh and appealing using today's more modern fabrics and techniques. Take a sigh of relief as well; there are only 20 blocks this time around. On every second Saturday morning at 9am, starting March 14th, we will have coffee, donuts, learning… and FUN! At the first meeting we will get you excited, show the quilts, talk about what the program outline and get you started on your first blocks. Then we will have 11 more classes of learning, sharing and showing. The last meeting in February 2016, will be the reveal party. This time around, things are not as structured which will result in everyone’s quilts turning out different. Exciting! The cost for the Breakfast Club membership is $200 for the entire year and must be paid at time of sign up. This includes your book, a fat quarter tower (of either Cotton and Steel Basics by RJR Fabrics or Bonnie and Camille prints by Moda), your block background fabrics (your choice) and class time instruction. Everyone who completes their quilt top and has attended at least 11 meetings will receive a $50 Quiltique Gift Card as a rebate. There will also be door prizes given away at each meeting. You will receive a raffle ticket for these awesome prizes at every meeting when you bring in your previous months' completed blocks. We will also keep going with the punch card for a discount on any one item just for attending that month, completed blocks or not. There is no sewing at this 1-hour meeting, just some lecture-style instruction, plenty of your show-and-tells, and some “what’s new and happening” at Quiltique. If you haven’t signed up for Breakfast Club in the past, we welcome you to join us and try something new. If you are a BC veteran…what are you waiting for? Get signed up today!

Join Cathy early on the 1st Tuesday morning of most months, for a quick and informative session, hosted by a top-notch BERNINA educator via the web.

EXCITING NEW EMBROIDERY BLOCK OF THE MONTH'S SPRING
SPROUTS
This beautiful spring quilt from Edyta Sitar of Laundry Basket Quilts is ideal for both machine embroidery enthusiasts as well as quilters who enjoy machine appliqué. The bright batiks used in this quilt are from Edyta’s fabric line “Over the Rainbow” by Moda and standout against the soft light cream colored backgrounds. And the best part of this quilt is that the appliqué pieces are from the Laundry Basket Silhouettes line, which are laser cut pieces, pre-fused and ready to be stitched down. This 12-month program will start in February and there will be a kick off class to get you started on the right foot (presser foot that is!) There is a class for both machine appliqué students and embroidery machine appliqué. Choose the class that suits you best and get on your way to creating this pretty spring quilt. Pricing for this quilt is $20 per month for twelve months. If you are doing machine embroidery, you will need to purchase your embroidery CD for an additional $50. Shipping is also available for our long distance friends. Please see page 13 for class dates and times.

The Stash | January 2015 – April 2015
The Postage Stamp quilt is the pattern for our all-new…all-day…sew-in ! Historically, a “postage stamp” quilt was a way to use up tiny scraps that were left over from various sewing projects. The size of the small squares usually measured just one inch, giving reference to the size of a postage stamp. Today, a Postage Stamp Quilt serves the same purpose for many quilters and has also turned into a way to do something traditional with a modern twist. There are several ways to piece a Postage Stamp Quilt, historically done with no pattern at all, but modern sewing has brought us some great time saving techniques. Since you all seem to be really into scrap quilts these days, we thought this would be the perfect next quilt for our popular all-day sewing project! Join Anita for a relaxing day of sewing your scraps or your favorite 2 ½” strips and make your own one of a kind Postage Stamp Quilt. Use up some of your leftover Jelly Roll strips from home, bring some to swap, or use a Jelly Roll you've been saving and learn how to create this perfect snuggle-up quilt. Join us on Saturday, January 31st or Monday, April 20th for just $30. We will of course have hearty soup and salad for all to keep you stitching all day long. Another memorable day of stitching with friends is in store for you. These sewing days fill up fast so sign up today! {Image used with permission.

Arguably the best quilt piecing thread on the market! This 100% extra-long staple Egyptian cotton is mercerized for strength, colorfast and shrinkfast, tightly twisted and balanced, and virtually lint free.

FINE GROUND TURKISH EMERY
FF STA ITE ! R O FAV
This is the same emery used in emery boards and those little strawberries that come on some tomato pin cushions. Emery sand has long been known to sharpen needles but it also cleans them. Plum Easy likes to call it “Sharpen & Shine”. The French square bottle has a slender neck to pour easily into your pin cushion. A free Emery Filled Strawberry pattern is included. $10.65 per 4oz. bottle.
This is my favorite pincushion filling! It is perfect for filling small pincushions that you will actually use as a pincushion because it keeps your pins and needles extra sharp. - Jan
