From the Sutter Cancer Center
The following message goes out to the
Super Quilters at Sew So Shop
"You have given of your time and your talent and we thank you and the Sutter Cancer Center thanks you...
"Thank you for your generous support. Without your assistance this years quilt auction would not have the Big success that it was. This is the fourth annual quilt auction and we received 537 quilts and raised over $124,000."
The American Cancer Society and the Sutter Cancer Center are the grateful beneficiaries of more than 1900 quilts having been donated and over $425,000 having been raised since the quilt auction has begun. The money raised goes toward patient care and badly needed research in this most worthy cause.


Barbara Jacobson we thank you!
Barbara Donated 2 Irons and 2 Ironing Boards To Our Classroom.
Thanks Barbara for this outstanding gesture.
You saw a need and you filled it, thanks again...


SEWING IDEAS
How about a table runner, a purse, apron or a wall hanging? 
We have a plethora of patterns for each of these ideas just waiting for your personal touch. 
We have several books and patterns dedicated to table runners, place-mats and aprons for that special cook/hostess this holiday season. 
Jeri Kelly's Every Month table runners are sure to please, and Patrick Lose is not far behind with his trademark whimsical style! 
Patterns for children and adults continue to be a hit, just ask Katie how many she has to order each week!
Be it a Texture Magic Bag and accessories, Summer Tote (we won't tell if you make it in fall/winter material), Shopping Pretty, Effie Bag or another purse, we have material, snaps, interfacing, thread, scissors, rotary blades and almost anything else you will need.


Can't find what you're looking for?
Be sure to ask if you are looking for any needlework or quilting items you don't see and are desperately in need of. We will find them for you.
We have several resources we are able to use and we are more than happy to use them for you.
We are here for you, remember our goal is to provide to you, the very best in customer service



Yarns
Plymouth Yarn stuns us again with Mushishi, an Italian wool/silk blend yarn for size 7 needles. 
We start with Color 03 - raspberrish with a touch of orange and white.
You must check it out!
New from Ella Rae, Lace Merino, an extra fine lace weight superwash 100% wool (size 4 needles) that gauges at 7.25 stitches to the inch.
Included in the colors are 111,118, and 120. 
This is a machine washable flat dry lace yarn which is super soft.



















































Pattern Update:
One of Katie's favorite  purses is the 'Mini Bow Tuck'  by
Penny Sturges and the pattern is back in stock.
Another shop favorite is
'Shopping Pretty' from KDCreations.
We have samples for both in the shop


The Woolies are here!!!
We have a new bunch of flannels that look a lot like wools but they are soooo soft!
It was hard not to get all of them so we picked 15 and are putting together kits with the Half Hitched pattern using the Woolies but we have lots left for other projects.
