Letter from the Editor And just like that, another year has gone. 2018 was full of good and bad days, news and events just as in all years past.

Hopefully for you personally, it was overall a good year. And if it was not so great, what is wonderful about sewing, quilting and creating is that we have a safe retreat. A place that can take our minds off the stress of the day, the distressing news from the television or the worrisome health issues, you or someone you love may be having. All I am trying to say is that when life gets you down, just sew and remember tomorrow is a new day.

It’s also a new year! It is time for new things, new beginnings, new adventures and of course, new sewing classes. And with a new issue of The Stash, that always means new and exciting things are coming soon. The very first thing that comes to mind and maybe that I am most excited about is our new website! FINALLY! I had been talking about this new site for way, way too long. It is the procrastinator in me I suppose that has taken it so long to arrive, but the day has come. You may have stumbled across it already because by the time you are reading this, it literally just launched (or at least that is the plan as I am writing this). If all goes well, you should be able to sign up for these upcoming classes on our new site as well as a ton of other cool things including real time inventory status! Yasss!

I also wanted to give a big shout out to all those that participated and donated items at our Winter Wonderland event and who stitched up a stocking at our Holiday PJ party for the Nevada Partnership for Homeless Youth. The stockings were stuffed with all your wonderful donations and we were able to donate over $900 to the charity (from our raffle and bake sale) to help them make this holiday a better one for those teens that are struggling. Our customers are always so generous, and we thank you for your support.

It’s 2019 everybody… let’s make this year count! Let’s do more good, more laughing, more sewing, show more kindness and support our community more and make it a year to remember. VEGAS STRONG! Happy Sewing!

– Jennifer and the entire Quiltique family

"Sewcial"

On a personal note, in this quilting industry, I have been fortunate enough to meet some amazing, talented and creative people. One person in particular has become a good friend and owns the cutest and most quaint little sewing shop in Leesburg, Virginia. Nicole has extraordinary taste in fabrics, yarns, and friends (LOL!). Being the creative entrepreneur that she is, she expanded from her retail shop and created something that is perfect for the maker in all of us. It is called Finch Box, rightfully named after her shop called Finch Knitting & Sewing Studio.

A new Finch Box is released every other month. The exciting part about it is that nobody knows what is inside the Finch Box until you open it.

Each box is hand curated by Nicole and includes a lovely project that is fun, stylish, and to be made just for the love of stitching. Every pattern in the box is written by Nicole and the projects are good for beginner and experienced makers alike!

We have decided to bring Finch Box to all of you. While you can get Finch Box delivered straight to your door, wouldn’t it be more fun to experience it with friends and others who share your passion for creating? Finch Box Sewcial will meet starting February 28, from 5pm – 9pm and continue every other month on the last Thursday evening of that month. We will get together, have a box reveal and then sew the project inside together. Now when Nicole and I get together, we usually enjoy each other’s company and a glass of wine, so I thought it would be appropriate to do the same for all of you. Finch Box Sewcial will also be enjoyed with a nice Pinot, Rose or whatever the season deems appropriate.

Cost for the Sewcial is $65 which will be charged to your card on the 1st of the month in which we meet so that your box can be ordered and ready for you at the end of the month. Join us anytime and cancel at any time.

Simply align the pieces you need to sew together, snap on the SewTites, and sew! No more pin holes. Easily keeps thick materials together and they won’t break like clips.

THE STASH NEWSLETTER JANUARY – APRIL 2019

Clubs and Programs Home Grown Block of the Month

By Adorn It When we saw this adorable quilt at Quilt Market last spring, we had to bring it home. It is just so stinkin'’ cute and will no doubt bring a smile to your face. It just screams HAPPY! (Oh, and I guess it says “Happy” too!) Plus, it is the kind of project that you can work on away from the sewing machine when you need just a little break. Each block design has a mason jar with a sweet floral design inside the jar.

We have set this BOM up a bit different where the quilt part of this project is an optional add on because the stitchery blocks alone can be used for so many things. Each month you’ll receive a new Home Grown hand embroidery design & pattern. No tracing required! The designs are printed onto a wash-away stabilizer. Once you’re finished stitching, soak in water, and all you’ll have left is your beautiful stitching (fabric not included). The monthly cost is only $10 for the stitchery patterns.

Now, showcase and enjoy your twelve beautiful hand stitched blocks by adding the Home Grown Happy Finishing Quilt, designed exclusively for the Home Grown embroidery series. The finished quilt size is 57 x 78 inches. You’ll receive the background fabric to stitch each embroidery block and all the fabric for the quilt top and binding. The kit also includes a triangle acrylic template, sewing pattern and appliqué paper templates. The cost for the finishing kit is just $89.00. You will receive your finishing kit up front so that you can work on the entire quilt as you go.

We begin in February and this is the perfect project to kick off Spring!

PIN PALS Pretty. Delightful. Fast. Fun. Small.

Scrappy. ..and Addicting! Our new Pin Pal Club checks all the boxes for quilting entertainment. No big commitment and the satisfaction of completing a project quickly will keep your interests peaked.

That is why we are loving this new book from Carrie Nelson (aka Miss Rosie) and thought it would be a fun way to bring a little fun into your sewing room. Even beginners with basic sewing experience can whip up these pincushions in a flash.

FREE PATTERN

Kristin by Villa Rosa Design – 54” x 70”

Each month you will receive a new pincushion kit complete with pretty fabrics and ground walnut shells for stuffing. The book, which will be used for each pincushion pattern, will be given to you the first month you sign up. You will not know which pincushion we will be stitching until you receive your kit each month. When you complete your pincushion for the month, bring it in and show off the adorable little thing! If you do, you will receive a complimentary and unique pin to adorn your new “Pinny”.

If you are in Pin Pal Club, there will be one free class available for all you “Pinnies” to get together and stitch up your kit. We will be sewing the “pinny” of that month or you can bring in any of the “pinnies” to work on.

Cost for this club is just $20 per month! Sign up or cancel anytime after 6 months. Sew for the JOY of it!
