Beyond The Stitches Newsletter - August 2024
We're so glad you're here!Our Newsletter will provide information on what has transpired during this past month as well as what is coming up.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Here we are in the Month of August already! If you are participating in the Central Florida shop hop, Pattern Palooza, you have until August 3rd to get your passport completed and submitted to one of the participating shops to be entered into the drawing. This has been a great shop hop with a lot of fun. We hope you have enjoyed visiting the shops and collecting your patterns. Here are some pictures from shop hop. The couple shown live in Gainesville and they finished the shop hop in one day. We were able to celebrate 4 generations of a shop hop family. We were able to have fun with the completed Bucket Hats during the shop hop. 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------We missed seeing you and your projects at the July Sew & Tell (this event was not scheduled due to our Anniversary Celebration) however we are excited to see you this Saturday, August 3rd, to celebrate your completed projects. If you have not enrolled, be sure to visit our website, www.beyondthestitches.com, to enroll so we can set up the proper number of chairs (and you get an extra drawing ticket for enrolling!). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Each one of our Team Members has become the champion of various sections within our shop. This past month, Team Member Susie, has been hard at work displaying the great fabric panels we have in stock for your shopping pleasure. We call this Susie's Panel Pandemoium. Here is the meaning of Pandemonium (pan·de·mo·ni·um) - wild and noisy disorder or confusion; uproar. Ex: "pandemonium broke out". Oh yes, Panel Pandemoium has broken out but it is anything but disorderly or confusion. Susie has done a fantastic job creating space for each panel to be displayed perfectly. Way to go Susie! We appreciate all of your efforts. 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------We have had some fun classes in our Learning Center this past month. Be sure to keep an eye on our Class and Special Event calendar on our website. 
Speaking of Special Events, be sure to check out our Special Event scheduled for Saturday, November 9th where we will be celebrating Mom's (aka: Jan Squires) 85th Birthday with an event with the founders of Beach Potato Embroidery (located here in Florida) Stephanie and Joe. Be sure to enroll in this fun event where we will be creating In The Hoop (ITH) projects creating cute Christmas ornaments. Your class kit will include all of the materials you need (some supply list items required).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------We enjoy seeing your completed projects from the sergers, machines and fabrics purchased at our shop. Thank you for sharing the excitement with our Team. Great projects were shared this month. 
We had a great Special Event with founder of Fit Nice System, Judy Kessinger, with the Serger Blouse / Jacket during a two-day event. This cotton garment was constructed on the serger and personally fitted to each attendee.
