Beyond The Stitches Newsletter - April 2025
Welcome to our Monthly newsletter where we share what has been going on during the past month and share updates with you.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Thank you for your vote in the 2025 LQS (Local Quilt Shop) Contest. The results are in and we ranked #2 in Florida and #18 Internationally. Thank you for your support.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All Florida Shop Hop is well underway and will continue to run through April 30th. This great event that began on March 1st is a fun way to visit participating shops throughout Florida (from the Panhandle to the Keys), collect a stamp on your passport and gather your pattern cards for future project creation. The specifically curated fabric line is available for purchase for all shoppers and a passport is NOT required to purchase the special All Florida Shop Hop fabrics.
A full parking lot, the love of sewing, great stories and a lot of laughter have been shared. We have had 480 shop hoppers travel through our doors since March 1st.
The Hopper (a lime green frog) has been found by many then they get to hide him for the next hopper seeker....the spaces he has been hiding has been fun.

The Central Florida Shop Hop, Notions in Motion, began March 21 and will run through April 5 where you can visit seven participating shops with your purchased Passport and collect your great Notions. If you haven't purchased your Passport yet, be sure to stop by our shop and let one of our Team Members assist you so you can get started and complete this fun adventure now through April 5th. The shops are centrally located and you can actually achieve all shops in one day so you still have time to complete this great event by April 5th. Thank you for MaryEllen for helping stamp passports and guide customers.
We have had some completed Passports already submitted for the drawing......good luck to those participating. The winners should be announced shortly after the drawing on April 12th.

If you received one of our coupons at the local quilt show, Quilts in Bloom, please remember they expire on April 30th. It was a fantastic quilt show and we were able to see a lot of great customers and meet some new ones too. Thank you for stopping by and saying "Hi".

You can enjoy this month's newsletter special of 20% off all in-stock thread when you show this section of your Newsletter to our Team Member at the time of purchase. This special does NOT apply to special order or previously purchased items. Cannot be combined with any other specials.

Service
We have a great 3-day Prior Program where you can request a Work Order be created to save your space in line. When our Service Team is ready for your machine, we will contact you and you have 3 business days to bring your machine in and we will get it back to you shortly. Prices vary according to machine model.
Have you wondered what your machine may look like inside? It is amazing how the fibers of threads and fabric can accumulate inside your machine. Some of the older machine models have gears that can show stress or even cracks that you may not know are there, however, a skilled service technician can take care of these issues professionally.

We look forward to visiting with you soon. Happy Sewing & Creating!
