QUILT CANADA OPPORTUNITIES!!

Gail, Josee and our sewing elves have been busy completeing their Thread Labs 1.0 projects to exhibit in our Education/Information Aurifil/Erie Quilt Art booth at Quilt Canada!

We will be helping your customers to appreciate the value of signing up for Thread Labs 2.0. We will also make them aware that they can purchase Thread Labs 1.0 boxes as well if they missed out in 2023.  

We will be distributing an information sheet to these customers and to everyone taking classes at Quilt Canada and it would be helpful to add to the flyer shops across the country willing to sign customers up for the program listed with emails and phone #'s for easy contact.  Sadly some shops have turned customers away when they inquire about Thread Labs,  so we are wanting to make it easy for customers to sign up for the program..  .

If you are interested in being added to the flyer as a participating shop, please send us an email to info@eriequiltart.com Attention Sabrina or call us at 587-354-2898  We will need this information by June 12th to give us time to print the flyers.  All shops already participating in the program will be automatically included in the flyer.  

An additional suggestion to help customers complete the project - you might want to consider a block of time each month in your shop where customers can view the videos together and start working on their projects.  It is always good to bring customers into your shops as they seldom leave without seeing something else they can't live without for their sewing fun.

Thread Labs is designed for all quilting experience levels, from beginner to advanced.  I can say first hand that, as an experienced quilter, I learned something new from every Thread Labs 1.0 project.I have completed and it was interesting and enjoyable to hear directly from the designers each month as well.

In addition to highlighting the Thread Labs. program, we will be showing some of our new product line additions - including Cherrywood Fabrics, Legit Kits and more.. 

We will also be introducting our Quilts of Valour Fundraising initiative - we have created two Quilts of Valour Aurifil thread sets (a 3 large spool set and a 5 small spool set)  and  the Legit Kits Poppy pattern and Cherrywood Hand Dyed Fabrics Poppy Bundle.  You will be able to order all of these products for your shops (on the website now) .  A portion of the proceeds from the QOV thread sets, Legit Kits Poppy patterns and Cherrywood Poppy bundle will be donated to Quilts of Valour.
