Quilt Corral July 2023 Newsletter


 

Howdy Quilt Corral Friends!

Happy summer! At Quilt Corral we can tell it's summer because Carol has been away on her annual family vacation, and Barb has had her granddaughter Etta with her for a week of Camp Kansas. (That's why this newsletter is a bit late.)

Upcoming Events:

Ten Item Tues: Facebook Live most Tues at 3 pm or just check out the most current list of items on the home page.

July Retreat: July 20-23, 2023. Sold out! For those attending, the schedule and additional info email has been sent.

Sept Retreat: Sep 21-24, 2023 registration will open Aug 15th.

River Run: Oct 4-6. Click here to download the flyer listing all participating shops.

Shop Hop Block of the Month: Starts Jan 2023. See below for more info.
Block of the Month:

Door Banner of the Month. Perfectly sized to hang on the front door OR inside on the back of a door. Make a different banner each month for a year. Use them yourself or, we think these would be perfect if you have a homebound friend who could use a little cheer each month. Even the smallest apartment has a door that might work for hanging.

Finished size 20" x 36"

Sign up by paying for the first month here. The program begins in Jan 2024 with the April banner. We will charge your card each month in advance. Limited to 12 participants.

Pictured are a few examples of the banners. To see all of them and to sign up click here.

It's Something New!! Shop Hop Block of the Month!

Sign ups end Oct. 1. Shipping is available although the gift and door prize ticket is for in-store pick ups only.
