Snippets from The
"Hangout"
Quilt Lovers' Hangout- 239-995-0045
13494 N Cleveland Ave N Ft Myers Fl 33903
Spring / Summer 2010
We are thrilled to announce that Quilt Lovers' Hangout
has been chosen  by McCalls Magazine as one of the 16
Hometown Favorites The special issue will hit news
stand May 18th. We will be carrying plenty of copy's here
at the shop so stop by and pick yours up. You won't
want to miss it!


Busy, busy, busy-that seems to be the word for the
summer months. With graduations, weddings, reunions,
the celebration of new births, 1st Holy communion,
gardening, vacationing, there seems to be little time for
our passion—Quilting!! But, we must say, some of you
are finding the time because we, too, have been very
busy at the shop. Summer seems to be a very good time
to grab a couple of friends and head out to the "Hangout"
some of you are coming and staying all day  to shop and
sew. A home away from home, is what many of you have
said. Which  we think is GREAT! We do appreciate your
stopping by to see us and spending the day. Lots of new
fabrics are being added to the shelves along with all the
latest greatest Christmas Fabric. You won't want to miss
any of it.. There are also lots of new  patterns, books, As
Spring has sprung,so have  lots of  new and fresh ideas
here at the shop. Everyone here has been creating new
quilt kits for your Spring and Summer sewing enjoyment!
We have quite a bit planned for the summer -so make
sure you check out  the classes.
If you have a young person in your life who wants to
learn how to sew or already knows how to and wants to
spend some time with other kids who enjoy it, be sure to
check out our  Pajama Party Kids Camp. Starting July
12th -16th.
Our Pillowcase Program is coming along quite well
another 50 cases have been turned in this month
bringing the total to 465. Great work ladies!

NEW TOOLS
The Steady Betty has been hugely popular and is now
stocked in two sizes - 16" square and 15" x 24".
Comments from all of you have been "it's great for
pressing pieced strips" and "this is perfect for working
on miniature quilts".  We'd love for you to try ours while
you're in the shop - bring along something you want to
press and test it out.  Our iron's always available!

BOOK REVIEW
Our favorite new book is "Schnibbles Times Two" by
Carrie Nelson.  What's a schnibble?  It's a little bit or a
leftover --- as in those fabric bits you're ready to use up!   
This book features 12 pairs of quilts - large and small -
especially designed to use 5" Charm squares and 10"
Layer Cake squares.
Thanks to everyone who has brought in pillowcases.  
They are being sent to  Tampa Shriners Hospital for
Children.
Your gift makes such a difference in a child's day .It's
something bright and fun for them.  (They) add much
needed color to the whiteness of their beds… Because
of all of you we had all the holidays covered…some of
the more popular (pillowcases) are sports relate. The
thanks we get here at the shop  are truly meant for all
of you, so thank you.”    The pillowcases are given to
children who have long and/or frequent hospital stays
at the hospital. Tampa Shriners Hospital for Children it  
is a, 60-bed pediatric orthopaedic hospital serving
children in Florida, southern Georgia and the
Caribbean free-of-charge. In a network of 22 hospitals,
the Tampa Hospital is the 19th orthopaedic hospital as
four facilities are burns institutes. The Tampa Hospital
cares for children with various bone and muscle
problems such as cerebral palsy, scoliosis, and other
limb and growth problems.  Quilt Lovers' Hangout  is a
drop off site through out the year rain or shine! We can
never have to many pillowcases so keep up the good
work everyone.
Shriners Hospitals for Children want to say
