Blue Hen Quilt Shop News!

               

I am running a bit late with this newsletter as I conveniently forgot to take my computer to Williamsburg last week and had to settle for sewing in the hotel room instead of writing a newsletter - But there's lots to tell you so read on!

Quilts Around the Bay Shop Hop  starts next month! Friday, March 2 - Sunday, March 11. Our theme is Stars Over the Bay. Travel to all nine participating shops and earn 10% off your shopping for a whole year! Plus you will be entered into the prize drawings and get free patterns to boot! Click HERE for more details. Here's our free block pattern - Circle of Friends. And you can see it with two different backgrounds (because it was so hard to choose!)
   
Each shop has made a quilt to inspire you. Ours are still on the long arm at home but should be ready to show in a few days! If you want to follow what the other shops are doing too, there is a Quilts Around the Bay Facebook page. We've even planned out your route. Click here for a Map! 

Holidays on Sale! 
All Christmas and Halloween fabrics are 40% off from now until the end of February, 2018. Minimum one yard cuts or one panel cut.

What's New at Blue Hen this month!
