FALL CRAWL! - the Autumn version of Shop Hop
Make plans now to join us on September 9, 10 & 11 for our Third Annual Fall Crawl. This year we have six participating quilt shops. We will have a 'progressive sale' - If you spend under $100 you will receive a 15% discount. If you spend over $100 you will receive 20% discount on all regular priced (in stock) merchandise.
At each shop, you will receive instructions for a portion of our Fall Crawl 2010 quilt. By visiting all six quilt shops, you will have instructions for the complete queen size quilt. Each shop will have the quilt made up using fabrics of their choice and will have kits available for their version. Quilters who visit all six quilt shops will be eligible for the grand prize drawings to win #1 - a design wall or #2 - a lightweight compact light box. Each quilt shop will have several drawings for additional door prizes so come on -- join in on the fun.
