Marci Baker is Coming Back!!


Hey everyone! As you all know, we had the wonderfully talented Marci Baker come to Cabbage Rose for some awesome demonstrations earlier this month and they were just SO successful! Everyone loved it so much that she's decided to come back for one more demo!!!

  
She shared SO many great tips and tricks that we're incredibly informative and helpful for even the most veteran sewers in attendance!!


She shows how to use color to create visual affects that will have everyone gasping! I mean, just look at those quilts!!! Sew striking!



We're so excited that she's decided to come back and give a whole new group of sewers a chance to come learn some valuable tips for more successful and enjoyable quilting!!

She'll be here Friday, September 23rd from *EDIT*10am-1pm 11am-1pm so mark those calendars and if you know you can make it, SIGN UP NOW!!! Space will fill FAST so secure you're spot!
The cost for this demo is $10 and you can sign up here!

Hope to see you all there!

Kid's Camp Round 2!


We finished up our last week of Kid's Camp and I think it's safe to say we all had a ball watching these young ones create their gorgeous quilts and pillowcases!!! And yes, they just HAD to learn to make our signature poufs to go with their brand new creations!




They all learned so much from fabric selection and placement to construction and solid sewing techniques all along the way! A huge thanks to Shirley, Janet and all the other Cabbage Rose girls who helped out! They know better than anyone that if you give a gal a quilt, you keep her warm for the winter; but if you teach a gal to quilt, you keep her and her entire family comfy and cozy for life! We're excited to see what these little ladies will be creating in the future! From the looks of their Kid's Camp quilts, I'm guessing they'll be making some real treasures!

This is one of our favorite events of the year and we run a camp each Summer so if this looks like something your kids might be interested in, stay tuned next Spring for the 2012 dates!!
