Textile Traditions 5th Anniversary February 15, 2012
This is a landmark anniversary for us so we are ready to PARTY!

Customer Appreciation Drawing
We have a beautiful basket packed with over $400 in goodies for a lucky customer to win. 50 fat quarters, books, patterns, notions, gifts and goodies galore are barely contained in the huge basket. Each time you shop you get a ticket, so be sure to come in often to get entered in the basket drawing. We want to thank YOU for all your support these 5 years and keeping us in business to serve YOU. We couldn't have done it without your tremendous support. We are excited about this drawing, and we just have to share with you that the first person in the store to get a drawing ticket was Sharon Craig, who just happened to be passing though Weaverville!

Vote for Weaverville!
Here's a vote that won't be wasted, generate political ads, irritating campaign calls during dinner or revolting retoric. Vote for Weaverville!!!! Out of over 600 nominations, Weaverville made it into the top ten for "America's Coolest Small Town" contest run by BudgetTravel.com. Vote now and every day until January 31 to make Weaverville #1! Go to http://www.budgettravel.com/contest/americas-coolest-small-towns-2012,11/ and place your vote for Weaverville. You can vote once every 24 hours, so please keep voting.

I don't usually pass on these kind of things, but this would be a great boost for our burg. Please also tell all your friends, family, neighbors, facebook friends and everyone else you can cajol into adding their votes, too! As of today we are in 2nd place, but a few more votes would put us at the top! Spread the word and VOTE!

Help Blow up Weaverville!
We want to help the Trinity County Chamber of Commerce with the cost of the fireworks show they sponsor each 4th of July by making a lovely quilt to raffle. We have packets made up with the pattern and fabric for one 9" block and invite you to participate by making a block. When the blocks are complete we will finish and quilt it, then present it to the Chamber.

Come by and pick up a packet and help us blow up Weaverville on the 4th of July!

The Quilt as Art
The Main Street Gallery is featuring the Quilt as Art in its gallery this month. Come by to see the works of the Faultline Quilters and local quilters displayed in their newly re-arranged gallery. Five Windows Gallery is displaying some new panels from Lisa's "Walking in Love" quilt installation. I am happy to report that during Art Cruise, every gallery in Weaverville had at least one quilted item on display! Quilter rule...

The Main Street Gallery is sponsoring a class for quilters and fiber artists with a nationally known teacher on October 7, 2012. That's the day after the quilt show, folks! After enjoying a day of quilt bliss at the Autumn in the Alps Quilt Show, travel to Lewiston for Color Camp with Christine Barnes, author or "The Quilter's Color Club". Class goes 9:30-4PM with a lunch break and will be held at the Lewiston Community Center. Cost of Color Camp is only $50 and seating is limited. For more information or to make a reservation, contact Evelyn War at 530-778-3305 or jeward@shasta.com .

New BoM "Home is Where the Heart is" starts in February, only $10 for the whole program!
Everyone tells me they need to use up their scraps, so here is the perfect opportunity! This quilt is huge, 102"x111" so it will fit your queen bed. Rather than sell the packets with pattern and fabric we are going to let you use up that huge stash that's been begging you to sew. Each month you will receive a new pattern for a portion of the quilt to keep you working.

You pay $10 for the first month's pattern. The next month, if you bring in your completed block, the next pattern is free! Otherwise, patterns are $5 per month if you don't finish your block. More details coming soon and the next newsletter will have a picture of the quilt.

Don't forget your printable coupons! These coupons will add up to savings for you--print them out and keep them in your wallet so you can save big on your next visit. (If the link does not work, go to our website, click "news" and click the coupons link at the bottom of the page. I've been told that the coupons link does not work in all emails) Save money and use coupons! We make these coupons just for you, our newsletter subscribers, so that you can save money everytime you shop.
