Quilt Market Update from Cindy

Here is a note from Cindy that we received on Thursday.  Sorry it's a day late but Blogger was feeling blue.

Salt Lake City is beautiful and the 1st day of market was fun and filled with lots of great ideas!  I have seen several new books that look exciting.  Let's Twist 2 has lots of new projects using all the sizes of Twister Templates.  I am anxious to try several of the new rulers from Creative grids.
More tomorrow on the new fabric finds!

Quilter's Cupboard News from Jenny

As some of you may have heard, I am moving to the Philadelphia area. Greg has been doing consulting work in Pennsylvania for the last 8 months. He was recently offered a full time position. After much thought and consideration, we’ve decided that it is best for our family to accept the job. But don’t worry, Quilter’s Cupboard and Knitting Next Door will remain the quilting and knitting stores you love.

I will continue to be involved with both stores, and Cindy Peters, the current manager of Quilters Cupboard will be buying into the business and keep both stores growing and servicing the quilters and knitters of Central Iowa.

We continue to work on improving both stores. We are adding a few more Baby Lock models so we have a more complete line to better match your machine wants and needs. At Knitting Next Door (our new yarn shop), we have started adding new spring yarns. We are also working on expanding the number of classes offered at both stores.

While I am both excited and anxious about the move to Pennsylvania, I will miss the day to day operations. I intend to be very involved with the future direction of the stores. I am confident that Cindy and I share a similar vision for both stores, and I know our customers are going to continue to love the direction we are headed.
