North Georgia Fall Season is Fun For Fabric Junkies!

North Georgia Fall Season is Fun For Fabric Junkies!

As the heat of summer wanes, and the colors of fall settle on the landscapes and mountain tops of North Georgia, there’s a whole world of fresh, new colorful fabrics to contend with, especially for those holiday gift giving projects.  For ideas and fun times with friends and family, start with our 2nd Annual Leaf Lookers Shop Hop!

North Georgia Fabric Stores Fall Event

 

Friday and Saturday, October 7th and 8th.
Three shops, including FG&QS are SPONSORS of this autumn mini-shop hop event.

It’s a great time to get outdoors to enjoy the changing colors.

Visit all 3 quilt shops on your trip.

While the guys are watching football or working out in the shop or fishing, grab your girlfriends, sisters, moms, daughters and enjoy the fun, the free goodie bags and the chance to win our grand prize.

Your chance to win the Grand Prize are fairly high, just based on the actual participant volume, which is smaller than the spring Shop Hop where about a dozen or so shops are involved, and attracts  more exposure and attendance.  

Mark your calendar for: 

Friday and Saturday, October 7th and 8th.

Long Arm Certification Class & Quilt Raffle

Summer is all about flowers and fun.I hope everyone is enjoying SUMMERTIME!

Its usually a time of rest and relaxation but seems like things are as busy as ever these days.

LONG ARM CERTIFICATION CLASS  – 10am to 5pm Saturday August 13th.

North Georgia Quilting Shop

For our North Georgia Quilting Community, we’re repeating our popular  Long Arm Certification Class at our Blairsville GA location.

Class size is limited, so we recommend that those of you who want to make sure you get a seat for this class to PRE-PAY and Pre-REGISTER.

In the class you will learn how to load your quilt into the long arm quilter, and the basics of using the machine, such as bringing up the thread from the bottom, starting and ending.   Anyone desiring to use the Long Arm Quilting Machine at Fabrics Galore and Quilting Store must have enrolled in the certification class.

Your instructors Russ and Rhonda Adams of The Backporch Quilters, will cover basic free motion quilting such as all-over loops, swirls, loops and stars, etc. We will also cover using an all-over pantograph pattern— how to set it up and how to roll your quilt. You will use a laser light on the machine to follow the pantograph pattern.

You will need to bring your lunch or snack. Our lunch break will be 30 minutes long. We have a full refrigerator and small microwave.

Skill Level:
Any level desiring to quilt
Requirements:
Pre-registration and Pre-pay required. Limited space.
