April 18: Spring Mid-Term Class Review

We are nearly halfway through the Spring Trimester, but there are still a lot of great classes available with openings. On Saturday, April 18, from 10:30 a.m. to noon and 12:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. we will be conducting a mid-term class review for the Spring Trimester.

 Instructors will be on hand for the 10:30 a.m. to noon session, which will be between Super Saturday meetings. This will be another opportunity to see the class projects all together again and to meet with the instructors for questions. It also is another opportunity to save 10% on the class fee if you register for a class on that day.
 



 


May 11: Class Reunion

Our next class reunion is scheduled for Monday, May 11 at 6:30 p.m. Diane Spahr will be our featured Instructor.

We are having a class reunion party to celebrate your accomplishments complete with refreshments, games and prizes to be topped off with Show and Tell by students. We will provide the refreshments and you will provide the show and tell. Don't miss the fun. Register today. Cost is $10.


 



 


May 29: Among Friends Annual Auction

It is back once again - the annual Among Friends Auction, which will be held on Friday evening, May 29 at 7:00 p.m. Beginning May 1, you will have an opportunity to earn auction bucks to spend at the auction (auction bucks can be used for the silent auction only). For every dollar you spend at Among Friends Quilt Shop between May 1 and May 28, 2009, you will earn an auction buck, or on Friday, May 29 you can purchase auction bucks to use. If you are planning to attend the auction, please make sure that you ask for your auction bucks when you check out as they will only be available at the time of purchase.

Items to be auctioned will include quilt books, patterns, gift items, some quilt tops and samples, as well as other items. There will be a live auction in addition to the silent auction. While the silent auction requires Auction Bucks, the live auction will require real money - cash, check or a credit card. New this year - live auction items will be on display by May 8. To attend the Among Friends Auction, you need to purchase a $5 ticket while they last. Tickets will go on sale May 1. Join us for the auction and hear the words, "Going once, going twice, sold to the lucky quilter;" maybe that will be you!
