“Where Lasting Friendships Are Pieced Together” Spring 2015 Class Schedule April - May - June - July Go Big...and TAKE it home! The new Q24 LongArm from Bernina. Visit us online at: www.quiltingbeespokane.com 1 Dear Friends, Bernina Mastery Classes - By Machine The amount of change that goes on at the Quilting Bee is amazing. There are always new lines of fabric, Machine Model Applicable Sessions new patterns, new samples, new techniques, new ma- All Bernette sewing machines and 3-Series Bernette/3-Series Mastery All 5-Series and 7 Series Basic Operation All 5-Series and 7-Series Stitch Fun Bernina 560, 580 and all 7-Series Creative Options Bernina 820, 830 8-Series Mastery 1 & 2 Bernina 880 880 Mastery 1 & 2 Bernina 560, 580, 750, 780, Bernette Deco and Chicago 7 Embroidery Machine Basics 1 & 2 All Bernina sergers Basic Serger Use and Serging Ahead 1300MDC, L220, and 009DCC sergers Cover and Chain Stitching chines, new team Bee members and - gratefully- new Bee customers. While some change can be challenging, change that brings more of the things you love is change you can really embrace. We invite you to come into our Bee home and embrace all the new things Spring has brought. While I’m sure you can imagine us all giddy over some of the neat new lines or the awesome Q-24 Long-Arm, what you might not see is how our hearts are filled by our relationships with old friends and, perhaps even more, by the new ones. Just as every line of fabric is just a little different and unique, it is a joy to get to know all of you who were created with your own unique character. We thank you for sharing yourselves with us and promise to keep the changes coming. Some of the new things at the Bee include a shop hop called Row by Row and an early QB Elves workshop for those of you who are over-achievers. If you haven’t been in lately you might not have seen Bernina’s e16 16-needle embroidery machine, Q-24 Long-Arm, the Sterling Special Edition 880, or the new generation of the 7-Series Line that will be arriving just in time for Mother’s Day. Of course it goes without saying that new fabric is always rolling in daily and super new classes are right within these pages. Finally, come in and say hello to Wendell, our first man to work the floor, if you don’t count Scot running around making coffee and cracking jokes. We hope to see you soon and often. May grace and peace be yours in abundance. Treasure and Scot CLASS DESCRIPTIONS We want finding a class to be easy!
