(Thursday, March 5th)

Well....welcome to March everybody!
Just when we think there is light (or should we say warmth) at the end of the tunnel, mom nature throws us another icy curve. Totally not fair since yesterday was in the mid-70's!!
It's suppose to be a bit "icy" in the morning on the roads....so we will open at
1:00pm tomorrow, Friday the 6th! (Just have to make sure the ramp to the front door is safe to use!)

In the meantime...we've had lots of great fabric lines showing up lately and our clubs have finally started for the new year!

We still have a couple of spots in both our Jo's Little Women Club and our Kim Diehl What-Nots Club. Information is on our class schedule page (just hit the red link at the top of this page).

Well....after hacking and chopping and spreading ice melt this afternoon...we
hopefully open at NOON on Saturday.....hopefully!!

With that in mind, please call the shop before you come over to make sure the parking lot is safe! We were hacking through 4" of ice over most of the lot....but by the end of the day, the ice melt was helping things get slushy.

 (Before the hacking, chopping and spreading.....and slipping and sliding!)
