There is still seats available for our VERY SPECIAL, first - ever, Embellishment Retreat, featuring instruction by Jane Connor. This special weekend event is scheduled for May 4 - 6. 

During this special weekend, instruction will focus on embellishing your projects with decorative stitches and beadwork;
learning all about embellishment and (of course) grazing on yummy snacks and food in between all the classwork! The class project is EMBELLISHED MONOGRAMS. For the hours outside of class instruction, you may work
on your own embellishment project or continue working on your monogram.

Complete information about the EMBELLISHMENT RETREAT is listed on our information page -- the link is below.

If you would like to secure your space at the EMBELLISHMENT REATREAT, just download and complete our registration form. Once complete, fax it to our shop with payment information included OR mail it with your check OR come into the shop to register.

Cost for this special weekend is $150 per person -- lodging is NOT included.

Don't delay! There are only 23 seats available for this very special weekend getaway!

It's back to back engagements for Two Guys at a Quilt Show!

Yes, if you missed us in San Luis Obispo, you can catch us in Ventura at the Camarillo Quilter's quilt show, entitled, "Quilting by the Sea."

This is always a very nice show and we look forward to attending as vendors. Their challenge for their guild members this year was "Pick a Letter, any Letter." With a challenge like that you can go anywhere, so there should be many beautiful quilts on display that you won't want to miss!

This show will be held May 5 & 6, at the Ventura County Fairgrounds in Anacapa Hall.

Show hours are Saturday, May 5 - 10 to 5 pm
Sunday, May 6 - 10 to 3

For complete information, see the website. I've posted the link at the end of this article.

See you "...By the Sea!"
