The Pine Needle is Flannel Central!

Love flannels? We’ve got you covered. We offer a huge assortment of the best cotton flannels on the market. With beautiful colors and prints, little shrinkage, and no pilling, our flannels are a simple indulgence of the highest quality!

Not sure how to work with flannels? Here are a couple of tips to remember: ■ Be sure to clean your sewing machine often!

Flannel creates more lint than other fabrics!

■ Do not push your iron! Press by lifting your iron up before you move it to a new spot on your quilt. This helps to prevent stretching.

■ Use a good smoothing spray when you press!

We love the new Flatter Pressing Spray! It is a wonderful starch-free product that makes flannels a dream to work with!

■ Use a 70/10 Jeans and Denim needle in your sewing machine.

Order Flatter and needles when you order your flannels. You’ll be glad you did!

Exciting Retreat Announcement This is the first time ever that I have put this Girls’ Retreat Weekend into the catalog, as it has always been full! But I have been able to add another time slot and you are invited!

I cannot say enough good things about what you will experience‚ and the quilters that have gone with us for the last seven years would agree.

What can I say about our retreats? They are fulfilling from both a creative level and a personal level. We keep them small so an esprit de corps forms and friendships develop.

Sign up early as this will fill quickly. To make it easy to budget, we offer an installment plan that begins when you sign up and ends in May. Dates are June 5–8, 2016. The cost is $495 and includes meals, bedding and even a pattern.

Dawn White is our instructor and as always, Geri is our fearless leader. Plans include food, fun, crazy games, and gatherings to exchange ideas and laughter.

We’ll travel to Washington to a beautiful place that will leave a lasting impression on your heart. We’ll stay in a large log lodge with fireplaces, breathtaking views, great food and plenty of sewing space. There’s even an outside fireplace where we’ll toast marshmallows. Fun and yum!

We will have a planning meeting in April with all lucky participating quilters to talk about travel plans and all the details.

For more information, feel free to call us, or come in and talk with Geri.
