Rain, Rain Go Away!
Here we are Memorial Day weekend. This is what it looks like outside my window. Could it rain any harder? Maybe by tomorrow it will clear up some.

One MIlion Pillowcase Challenge
Saturday was a workshop day here at the shop for the "One Million Pillowcase Challenge" Here are all the wonderful ladies that stopped by to sew and have a good time making pillowcases. We also had a few drop ins with pillowcase donations. I want to tell everyone how wonderful these ladies are. It was a beautiful sunny day and they spent it here helping make "Hugs" for someone that needs one.
Our pillowcases are going to the Snohomish county Battered Women's Shelter.

Book Club Today!
Fun Day! Fun Day! I always look forward to book club day! We just finished reading a book called Honolulu. I really enjoyed it, and I think there will be lots to discuss. It's always interesting to find out other peoples opinions. We will be reading "Sweetness at the Botton of the pie" this month and discussing it on June 3rd. I kind of read ahead this time and finished this book the other day. I LOVED IT! Books will be available at the shop. (untill we run out) Maybe you could stop by and pick up a copy and join us!

One Million Pillowcase Challenge
Aunt Mary's is excepting the challenge from American Patchwork and Quilting, to help donate one million pillowcases to local charities. A beautiful pillowcase made by someone who cares can really uplift a lonely child, give encouragement for a battered woman or make a bed more cheery for someone in need. I think of it as a great way to give someone who needs it, a big hug. To find out more about the challenge go to www.allpeoplequilt.com/millionpillowcases .
We will be having a fun workday here at the shop on Saturday May 15th from 10 - 4. With demos on new pillowcase patterns. $5 kits, Door prizes and much more. I think it will be a fun day!
