Happy Quilting
It is hard to believe that the new year is here already! It seems like we just started 2016 and POOF it is over! As I look back on 2016, I think of all the a great classes and events we have done together over the last year. As I plan for 2017, my goal is to become organized and be working ahead of schedule (my coworkers don’t believe that it is possible). Once you check out all

of the exciting things planned for 2017, you will see why my goal is to become more organized!
We are kicking off 2017 with a fun filled 3-day Ruler Play Retreat featuring the Westalee Domestic Machine Quilting Rulers. Join National Instructor Paula Reid, February 16 - 18th, as we learn the ins and outs of Machine Quilting with rulers! Also, coming in February is the New Hoopsisters Embroidablock-of-the-month Charmed Adventure! This fun project will give you lots of stitching time to bond with your embroidery machine. Choose to make your quilt from any of the five block size options. Stop by Country Traditions and see our sample in the works.
Coming in March is a new Stitch Play Class, Quilter’s Patch by our friend, Edyta Sytar. We will be putting a Country Traditions twist on her quilt and incorporating Decorative Stitches, Machine Feet, Embellishments, and much more. Want to learn how to use the Brother Scan-n-cut? Join me for an all day class on March 24th and see how to combine Embroidery and your Scan-n-Cut for perfect applique!
April brings us another fun filled Retreat! Join us April 28th - 29th, featuring designs and projects from Kimberbell Designs. Learn a variety of techniques for In-the-Hoop projects. Stop by Country Traditions to learn more about this Retreat.
Don't forget about our new Just Add Thread Quilting Service. Choose from two options? Take the certification class and then rent time to quilt your projects yourself or if you’re not ready to tackle quilting yourself. Pick out an all-over design from our wide selection and we will finish the quilting for you!
And that is just an overview of what we have planned for the 1st half of the year! Look forward to seeing you in the Country Traditions Classroom Studio!
