As we begin the Month of August it is hard to believe we are now going into the 8th Month of the Year. Time flies by so fast.
Thinking about how time slips away, the following unexpected passings are another reminder of how precious our time is with each other. We ask that you please keep the families and friends of the following friends/customers in prayer as they mourn the loss of their loved ones.
> The Family of Kim Harris - unexpected passing of Kim
> The Family of Mary Redrick - unexpected passing of her grandson
> The Family of Carole Jewell - unexpected passing of her husband
> The Family of Maddie Prosachik - unexpected passing of her husband

Our Team met at 7:00 a.m. Sunday morning to discuss the results of the July Fling Shop Hop that was from July 15 thru July 30. Thank you to our Team for all of your hard work in making sure the Shop Hop Block Kits, Finishing Kits and Snack Bags with Coupons were ready for our guests. Thank you to Gertie for designing all of our blocks, writing the patterns and even providing a fabric cutting guide to our customers. Our Team and YOU, our customers, made our July Fling Shop Hop a great success; we THANK YOU. Below is a picture of what we chose to do with the Shop Hop Blocks as well as our Team that made it happen at Beyond The Stitches (missing in the picture: Trena (she is traveling with her husband- safe travels Trena). We sold 113 Passports, provided 392 Quilt Block Kits and sold 227 Finishing Kits.


Our First Shop Hopper arrived July 15 at 9:00 a.m.

Our first group of Shop Hoppers to turn in their completed Passports was on July 17th at 3:55 pm

Several others that completed their July Fling Shop Hop Passports were not too far behind.

Several customers took advantage of participating in Serger Bootcamp with Baby Lock Educator, Denise Schober, where they learned the various stitches on their serger and the endless possibilities they can create. Denise then provided a Serger Trunk Show were she shared some tips and techniques using the serger followed up by a Saturday session on Palette 11 software showing how you can design and produce your own embroidery designs.
