May/June Newsletter
**Erin Matthew Sewing will be closed Monday, May 27 in honor of Memorial Day. **
What's New
- Twas the Night Block of the Month is here!!!! This adorable quilt features beautiful blues and lavenders - very non-traditional Christmas colors. We found this new-to-us designer (Meags and Me) last year at the Houston Quilt Market and we've been eagerly awaiting it's arrival. If you signed up for this BOM, you can come get your kit and patterns any time. You can pay all at once or in six installments, let us know your preference when you come in. If you need yours mailed to you, call or email us and let us know.
- Kimberbell Mini Quilts July-December arrived last week! This completes the "year" of mini quilts. We've got the embellishment kit for it in stock also.
- New Kaffe Fabric!
What's Coming
- The All Michigan Shop Hop starts on June 1 and runs through July 31, 2024!! Passport books are available now for $11.95. Come in and get your passport stamped, and you can turn in the passport for regional and statewide prizes as you complete a region. It's a beautiful full-color printed magazine which has ads for every store participating in the Shop Hop, so it's a great reference far beyond the shop hop season. There are also quilt patterns in the magazine which feature the limited edition, exclusive Michigan Shop Hop fabric. If you pre-ordered Shop Hop fabric, you can pick it up beginning June 1. The fabric is sure to sell quickly, so don't delay if you want some of it.
- The Big Woods Block of the Month will start in August/September! If you haven't signed up for it yet, call the shop to get on the list! This BOM features Tula Pink fabric and is a 12 month BOM.
- New Tilda Fabric & Kits will be here soon! Tilda has a new fabric line called Creating Memories, and we'll have three new kits featuring that fabric line. Contact the shop if you want to get on the list!
- We're planning a Brown Bag mystery/surprise quilt for September. More details to come!
- In addition to the Twas the Night quilt kit, we'll also have a new Meags & Me pattern and kit called Love You Deerly. So perfect for a kid's room! It uses the same fabric line as the Twas The Night Kit and it's beautiful.
