of that piece.
Retreat Bucks
Our computer keeps track of your buying. When you go on a retreat with us, you
get 1 retreat buck for every $5 you have spent (up to 30 retreat bucks)

Don’t miss this eagerly awaited event! Just like all good things, it only hap-
pens once a year! Fat 1/4’s 20 for $25.00. Fat 1/8’s 25 for $20.00. Come in
and fatten up your stash, Tuesday February 24 10:00 am—6:00pm.
We here at Quilt N Go just love new books and notions. We feel so lucky to be around them everyday we
work. We do realize, however, that our customers can’t always afford to buy every single new book and notion
that comes out! So we have decided to help you narrow down what books and notions are really great to put on
your MUST BUY list. Each newsletter a member of our staff will review a new book or notion.
This book has some great projects
(9) for your little one. The fabric
that goes with the book looks like
an I Spy quilt and there is very
bright colored panel blocks. The
baby quilts in the book use the
panel blocks of beez. The beez in
another of the quilts is appliquéd.
Several of the projects use the
jumbo rick-rack that we carry.
How fun is this!!
