THIMBLEBERRIES CLUB 2009!

     2009 will begin our 8th year of Thimbleberries Club.  Thimbleberries Club is a group developed by designer Lynette Jensen.  She patterned the club after quilt guilds and homemaker groups from the past.  Each year she presents a quilt or group of quilts to be made by club members.  She also designs a line of fabric to go with the club quilts.  Each shop that participates can take the guidelines she sets and do what they want with those ideas.

     Here at Fabric Fashions & More we meet each month on the 2nd Monday at 3:00 pm and 6:30 pm and also the following Tuesday at 9:30 am.  Meetings are casual, social and informative, lasting approximately 1 ½ hours. We keep you updated on new Thimbleberries fabric lines, books and patterns.  Our club members are special!  We let you know about upcoming events such as bus trips, retreats and sales.  Special discounts are available on all meeting days.  A free class, monthly door prizes and lunch are also part of our agenda.        

Sharon and Ginny are looking forward to a fun and fantastic year of

Thimbleberries Club 2009

 

Open Most Class/Club Nights!!! Please call first.
