Greetings :
May is my favorite month so look for grins and giggles at Stitches... this month. We started the month with a Mini Shop Hop and had great response from quilters in the area. Thanks to all who participated. Stitches... will continue with some great offers throughout the month. New yarns, new threads, new kits, new classes, etc. Thanks, also, to all who participated in the "April is for Aprons" and brought in an apron or two. If you didn't get your free fat quarter for participating make sure you get one when you pick up your apron. The winner for the apron contest was Arlene Hollar. Congratulations, Arlene.
