THIRTY YEARS

Watch the August newsletter for our thirty-year celebration in September. Mary Lu Stark opened The Quilt Works on September 9, 1978.  Some of you probably took classes from her when you began your quilting joumey.

NEWSLETTER CHANGES

The number of people on our "snail mail" list is decreasing, and the e-mail list is growing. The cost of printing and mailing our
newsletter has increased and more increases are on the way. As many of you already know, the newsletter is already posted on our web site. With this in mind, we are considering the following changes beginning 1 Dec 08, and would appreciate your comments before we "set them in concrete."
    ** The last "snail-mail" newsletter (Sep.-Dec.) would be mailed in August.
    ** The newsletter would continue to be posted on our web site. You can  print it at home.
    ** Hard copies of the newsletter would still be available for pickup at the store.
    ** As an incentive to change from our "snail-mail" list to our e-mail list, you would receive by e-mail, from time to time, coupons for special offers in the store.
    ** We are considering offering newsletter subscriptions at $5 a year for those who would still like to have their copies delivered by mail.
    ** The time span covered by the newsletter will be reduced to three months or possibly even two months. This will enable us to
offer new classes in a more timely manner.
