Completing the First Month Back

Hard to believe that the shop has already been re-opened for a month. I was happy to accommodate small groups of customers, happier to hear that all had been 'double-vaxxed' and pleased to make new friends among first time visitors. Shop hours are Thursday Friday and Saturday, noon to 5pm. Please ring the doorbell on the left of the shop door so I know you are there 💙

I'm also now able to say that the quilt get togethers at the Georgetown Senior Center will resume on second and fourth Tuesdays, beginning on July 13th. I'll be there from noon to 3pm and will stay a bit later to help anyone finishing up ... we need to be cleared out by 3:45 for the center's 4pm closure. The director has requested that we limit group size to 5 per session, which will allow safe social distancing in the allotted space. It is suggested that you phone ahead to reserve your spot. The staff telephone number is 978-352-5726. Masks will be required in the common areas (reception foyer, corridors) but may be removed within the quilting room by those who have been vaccinated.

As before, I will gladly share current projects in process, and occasionally provide fabric and patterns for sampler blocks. I invite participants to share their work, their successes and their questions, as we all learn by helping each other.

Here's a wall hanging I finished in June, for my daughter:



You can read details and how-to for this expanded star pattern on the 2021 Journal page.

I look forward to seeing you this summer at Quilters' Quarters, and at the Georgetown Senior Center (in the Perley School annex, just two driveways south of my shop.)

AC will be on in both settings!
