2008 Girl Clubs you can join:

 "MAGGIE BONANOMI" DESIGNS
Old Glory, Maggie's first club project for the 2007-2008 year. I will try to picture our 2008 projects as we get them in.  This club will consist of four designs per year that will either be geared to the season or holiday.  Maggie's designs are timeless primitive designs that can be enjoyed year after year.  Maggie always incorporates special hand-dyed wools and ribbons, unusual antique homespun and ticking fabrics even over dyed velvets just unique embellishments that make her folkart what our customers love and appreciate.  Maggie's designs are featured in the Need'l Love Thread books and Blackbird Designs are converting some of her folkart drawings into cross-stitch.

  I know you can expect an array of projects ranging from pillows and pincushions to mats to framed pieces.  It has not been determined what your cost will be but depending on the size of the project I think it's safe to say $70.00 for small to medium size projects, and up to $100 if we are doing a larger project. 

THANK YOU FOR THE CONFIDENCE AND SUPPORT OF MAGGIE'S' TALENTS.

   45 WILL BE THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF KITS MAGGIE CAN DO, YOU MUST REMEMBER THESE ARE  EXCLUSIVE KITS.  As of 3-27-08 we have no openings until we begin our new year.  Folks are already opting to stay in for the 2008-2009 year so if you want to do that let us know. 

 

 CROSS STITCHERS PRIMITIVE CLUB

We will be choosing old samplers, nothing too overwhelming, from favorite NEW designers and good old designers that fit our project criteria.  We will have these stitched on the antiqued linens we love to use, some may have to be dirtied even more after your project is completed.  We will try to give some very creative framing ideas we like to use too.  I'm excited about this new club I think you will be too.  We have already picked several projects.  Only 6 projects a year.

 PUNCH NEEDLE CLUB

Again only 6 projects and all will relate to the season or holidays that fall around the time of shipping. 

The cost of each of our punch needle projects will vary depending upon the cost of the materials and finishing if included.

"THE HOUSES OF HAWK RUN HOLLOW"

This club is for STITCHERS that love houses and like to work with linens and over dyed threads.  This club will run for at least one more full year(2008) I am working on house number 9 at this time.  This club was started in (May of 2005).  Your first shipment will consist of the first house chart, linen and threads.  I have gone over the whole chart and converted the colors to more traditional colors to support the traditional houses, you will receive all of the changes each month.  We have people still starting this project and at this time we will send everything up to the point where I am stitching.  The color changes will not be available to the public it has taken me 2 days to be satisfied with my changes and as I stitch it I may decide to make even more. 

 Your first shipment will be the most expensive since you will have the cost of the linen for the entire project, it will come packaged in one of our project bags and with your threads and over dyed thread cards to keep you organized.  I anticipate the cost of the first shipment to be about $68.00 plus shipping charges.  Your next shipments will basically be just the chart and new threads needed. 

If you have been trying to decide if this is something you would enjoy and this helps you make up your mind please contact us right away so we can get you started with our club.

2008 BLACKBIRD DESIGNS

"LOOSE FEATHERS CLUB"

 I would like to invite you to join or rejoin this fun Girl Club.   Your "Loose Feathers" Club is never too overwhelming in size and affordable. The new design pictured will be shipping the first of February.

  Wait until you hear the NEW twist this year!!!  This is really going to be fun because you will end up with a mystery sampler by the end of the year. When your year ends you will be sent a map and asked to take out something from each sampler graph you have received over the year and then you will be told how to complete your mystery sampler.  I love this idea!!!!


This club features designs from Alma Allen and Barb Adams.  You will be sent a total of six patterns a year, so every other month you will receive a new design kitted to go with the season or upcoming holiday. We will be posting the NEW Design when we get it so you can see what this club is really all about.  Pictured you will see "Where My Heart Blooms" which is new for 2008 the cost is $34.90. They will come packaged with over-dyed threads and linens that are usually designed for Blackbird by R&R Reproductions.  The great thing about this club is it is exclusive and after the year ends the patterns will be retired and burned never to be published again.  We do not charge a sign up fee just the kitted fee will be charged out to you every other month.  You will usually be introduced to a new stitch as well so if you are just starting to cross stitch this is a great way to learn those new stitches you have been agonizing about.  It's not to late to sign up so give us a call soon!

June 2008:  I will picture the next two patterns that have now been shipped out this year.  "Rites of Spring" was shipped in April and "Blessings & Kind Wishes" will be shipped yet this June.  Be sure to read the stork story on this leaflet.  It explains how if they roost on your house it is considered good luck.  Where are those storks we've got a big roof and could use some good luck. Please be aware:   You will be getting the first two mystery graphs with the JUNE shipment.  This is really a great idea and makes this club special and fun for our club members and FYI we are still able to take on new members if you are interested in joining.  We will offer the linen for the mystery project, you can choose option one with only one linen or go with the suggested 2 linens.  We will put a note in the next shipment and get you started on this project before the year ends.

 

 

BLACK SHEEP CLUB FOR QUILTERS
Our quilters really enjoy this club we give you the option of signing up for fat quarter samplers that are from new fabric lines or a quilt kit that will usually go along with the season.  We have some members that like to receive both and that is totally up to you.  We try to make this club exciting and again we have no sign up fees.

The quilt shown was a Black Sheep Quilt Club choice for September.  Sharyl Schlieckau made this quilt.  She quilted it with a close stipple.  Thank you, Sharyl, for sharing your finished quilt with us.
