The Early Bird sale has come and gone as well as Thanksgiving!  Once again, time marches on!  We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. 
 
Now is the time to focus on creating those one of a kind Holiday gifts!  Jody has added a one day class on Sunday December 14 to help you reach your creative goals!  Join her from 10-4 to work on any number of small projects including the Wonder Wallet, Maggie Bag, Cell Phone Bag, Smart Bag, Stocking, Wine Bag.  You choose your project(s) and Jody will be there to help!  Each of the small projects take no more that 30 minutes to complete so at the end of the day you could have most on your gift list crossed off!  Space is limited so be sure to call and sign up today.  There is a $20 class fee and you will need to purchase the patterns for the projects you select.
 
There is still room in the Fat QuarterTable Runner VI class this Friday night (6:30-9:30).   Bring 4 fat quarters a backing and batting and you'll go home with a completed table runner!
 
SAMPLE SALE! There are quite a few samples still in the shop and more are arriving all the time!  Some of the offerings are quilt tops that include the backing or binding.  Just quilt and you're done!  Don't miss this once a year event. No credit cards will be accepted for the purchase of samples; cash is preferred.
 
Credit CardWith the increased use of "rewards" type credit cards by our customers and the ever-increasing costs charged to small businesses like the Granary by the credit card companies each time we perform a credit card transaction, we would greatly appreciate payment in cash or by check anytime that is possible. Of course we would never refuse payment by credit card, but we figure it never hurts to ask, right?! Even debit or check cards are preferred over a credit card. Thank you for your consideration! 
Strip Club 
 
November QuiltTo the left is the quilt created using the holiday themed strip set from November.  If you weren't a part of last month's Strip Club you can still pick up the strip set and pattern - there are a couple of strip sets remaining!
 
To the right is the fabric collection for December.  We are using the Simple Abundance line from Moda!  December 09 StripsBe sure to sign up before December 15 and pay only $38.  After the 15th the cost goes up to $48. If you're new to "Strip Club" be sure to see our website for all the details! Due to the fact that Christmas falls on the last Friday of the month, our next Strip Club will meet Friday December 18 from 2-3:30pm OR 6:30-8pm. Holiday beverages and appetizers will be served. You won't want to miss the fun!

So that you can start planning your quilting hours we wanted to let you know of a new monthly class that we will be offering starting in January.  Join Jody on the first Monday of each month for "Quilt Mania Monday".  Because January 4 seemed too soon after the holidays to start we'll have our first class on January 11.  All other "Quilt Mania Mondays" will be on the 1st Monday of the month.  Class will begin at 5 and go till 9:30 so you're sure to get lots done! Bring projects you'd like to finish or need extra help on. There is a $15 fee and advance registration is required.  Limited to 8 quilters.   We will start taking signups on December 14.
