Sharon, Gail and the staff at Sew Many Quilts have been putting in long hours getting the shop ready for the upcoming Quilt Show Week. SMQ has always been known for it's wonderful selection of fabrics, its friendly staff and wonderful displays. This week it is being transformed into a Quilter's Wonderland with lots of new fabrics, quilts, trunk shows, patterns, displays, a new wool appliqué section, and more.
As a thank you to our loyal customers, we are having an Open House on Monday, July 5th from 5 pm to 8 pm. This will be a fun time to browse through all the wonderful new additions to our shop with some special deals for you.
We will have extended hours from July 5 - 11 to accomodate the many quilters who will be visiting the shop from near and far.
Monday - Friday, July 5 - 9 8:30 am - 8:00 pm
Saturday, July 10 8:30 am - 7:30 pm
Sunday, July 11 8:30 am - 5:00 pm
Most of you know that for the past 35 years, Jean Wells, owner of the Stitchin' Post in Sisters has been sponsoring the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show. The Stitchin' Post sponsors and co-ordinates the Quilter's Affair the week prior to the quilt show. She offers wonderful classes and events. We hope you will all be able to participate in some way.
We thought you would enjoy seeing a few photos of how the shop is looking and some of the work that happens to make it that way.

The classroom is being transformed into a display area for several trunk shows. Just like at home, it looks worse before it looks better.
The Jo Morton fabrics are ready!
Lots of new notions, threads, and a new rounder to display our extensive collection of rulers.
We have many cute baby quilts and little children's clothing.
Hope that you'll be back to visit our blog soon. It's a great way to keep up with what is happening at Sew Many Quilts in Bend, Oregon. We'll post more photos in a few days.
