What’s new at
Hen Feathers? This newsletter for one!
One of our
customers comes in every Thursday on her way to a weekly appointment.
Every week, the first thing she says as she rushes through the door is,
“What’s new?” And she’s not just asking about our well being. She
genuinely wants to know what fabrics we’ve received, what new quilts are
on the walls, and what kits are available.
We started
taking notes so we’d be ready for her, and it *finally* dawned on me
that we could type up those notes and send them to you. While we won’t
inundate you with spam, we do want to send you the latest news and
information in the quilt world.
Here’s what else
is new:
-
We just
received over 20 bolts of batiks. If just hearing about that makes
you go weak at the knees you really need to come by and take a look.
We’ll have the smelling salts ready.
-
If you’re
looking to make a WSU Ragtime quilt, we have new homespun fabric in
to please any Shocker.
-
We have a
cute, cute, cute t-shirt new in the store. It says, “Mess with my
fabric, I will rip your seams out.” It’s $16.00 available in M, L,
XL, 2X and 3X. AND it’s available online at
www.henfeathersquilts.com.

A big hello to
the quilters of Lincoln, NE! They stopped at Hen Feathers on their bus
tour and we had a great time.
If your group
would like to have a “Field Trip” complete with a catered lunch,
dessert, and a demo, give us a call at 316-652-9599 and we’ll get it
scheduled. And you don’t have to be from out of town to have a Field
Trip… busses are always optional.

We’ve all heard
of the 12 Days of Christmas, right? Well at Hen Feathers, we have the 12
Quilts of Christmas. That’s right. We have 12 different Christmas Quilt
Kits available for you to take home today. We’re always looking to have
some fun, so we thought it might be fun to have a contest. Here’s how it
works:
Beginning on
October 31st (because that’s when the rest of the world
thinks the Christmas season begins) we will post on the Hen Feathers web
site one of the 12 Christmas Quilt kits. The featured kit will change
each day for 12 days. Once you’ve identified the Christmas Quilt each
day, send an e-mail to me at
peggy@henfeathersquilts.com with your name, address and phone number
along with name of that day’s Christmas quilt, and your name will go
into a hopper for a $25 gift certificate giveaway. You can enter once
each day, so if you identify all 12 quilts, that’s 12 chances to win!
All entries must be received by December 1st and the drawing
will take place on December 5th. Good luck!

Remember to mark
your calendars for our next Friday Frenzy: November 6th & 7th.

That’s it for
now. We’ll make notes for next week.
Happy quilting.
