Employee errors mean deals for you.  This morning’s posting should have read 30% off Aunt Gracie material instead of gray material.  So if you can find gray material, it is 30% off, along with Thimbleberry and Aunt Gracie.

Hi Everyone,  I have sent out 3 short notices as Caroline wanted.  Now I want to give you the newsletter that I usually give you.

First, I want to tell you, that the newsletter is back in house.  I have typed in 1000 email addresses from every piece of paper I could find in the office.  If you do not want this newsletter, please hit reply, type UNSUBSCRIBE  in the subject area and send.  If you know of someone that is not hearing from us here at Caroline’s, have them go to our website: carolinessewing.com, and sign in under the NEWSLETTER tab.  That will automatically put their address into our list and put our name into their contacts file.  Because this is a mass mailing, some computers have blocks for mass mailings, but if our address (enews@carolinessewing.com) gets into everyone’s contact list, there should be no problems.

Well here is some good news.  Our little tent sale in May netted us what we thought would be enough to get plans drawn up for our addition.  Our first bid was way over that. Not being discouraged, we did some praying.  God came through with an angel last week and our plans are in his hands.  He will be out in the near future to do all the measuring.  Amen

Right now in the store we have the Thimbleart Trunk show hanging on the front porch.  And speaking of the front porch, we are going to start hanging quilts done by our customers again.  We will have a theme each month, and the first twelve or so to sign up, will have their quilt hung for a month.  Starting with August, the theme will be animals, in honor the county fair.  So sign up.  The second Monday of every month will be the change.  Kaye Wood will be at our September tea, so anyone that has a quilt done with a Kaye Wood technique, bring it in by September 8th, to be hung for a month and to honor Kaye.  On October 13th, we will hang fall themed quilts.  November the theme will be Christmas quilts.  December will be the Rifle River Quilt Guild mystery quilt.  More to come soon.

We are going to have Kay Nickols, author of “Wonderful 1 Fabric Quilts”, teaching here on Tuesday and Wednesday, August 5th and 6th.  We still have openings.  The fee is $40.00.

Our retreat for September at the Springs is full.  I am planning some neat things for this retreat.

Remember our tea is the third Saturday of every month.  Please come and bring a friend.

Love and God Bless, Caroline and Judy                     Hebrews 1:7

News from Judy: Hello Everyone,

I just got back from a wonderful trip with my brother. We drove almost 5000 miles in a mon th and saw some pretty amazing sites.

In April, we got our new website up and running, but with flaws. Now that I am back, I want to work hard on getting it up and running to the wonderful site we envisioned it to be many months ago. And in those months the newsletter has fallen by the wayside, with only a few going out. My promise to you, is that newsletters will be on track soon. I will be able to get my training in this venture, and I can keep all our wonderful customers informed on what is going on at Caroline’s.

Our May sales were a great success. Our “Under the Tent” sale did extremely well. Caroline has sent her dream plans to an architect to have blue prints drawn up, which is the first step of the many to come, for our new addition. Thank you to one and all that donated gently used items to sell and another Thank you to all that went home with items of value to you.

Our Janome machine sale in May was also a success and in July there will be another sale. A Christmas in July sale. (See attachments)

Remember ladies, Nancy is willing to teach you anything about any of your Janome machines. Call the store and set up a time on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday, to learn about that foot you never used or how to decide on the correct needle selection for your projects. Nancy is very knowledgeable on the Janome machines and is willing to help each of you alone or in a group. On July 9th, Nancy will have a Demo day. She will be teaching the blind hem stich, mock smocking and the stitch that looks like the hand quilting stitch.

Here are a couple of reminders. July 19th is our tea and we are happy to announce that Sharon, from Happy Apple Quilt patterns will be giving a trunk show. All the ladies that signed up for our September retreat at the Springs have to have their deposit in, because the ladies on the waiting list are eager to take your spot. They were given a July 1st date, when they can be added to our attending list.

As Always, Love and God Bless, Judy and Caroline Psalm 145: 1-3

PS: During one of our recent storms, our internet service was blown out and it will probably be a couple of weeks before it is up and running again. The good news is that I can do this all at home and I can read all the emails from home and will able to handle everything. So use our website and email. I will respond from home. Add JCF, nanafrench@veionline.com to your address book so anything I send from home will not go to your spam or trash folder.
Go to our blog, to get information on the pictures posted.

Janome is sending us two teachers to test drive this wonderful machine the week of May 12-17.  

There will also be sales in the store all week.  Outside we will have an”Under the tent” sale, handled by the employee and friends of Caroline.  It will include slightly loved books, patterns, crafts and other gently loved items.  On Saturday the 17th we will have a tea in the morning with many giveaways and a luncheon in the afternoon. This is all for Caroline’s anniversary celebration and Grand Opening for Janome Sewing Machines.
