Local Quilt Shop Day Celebrations, Sales, Contests, Giveaways and more!

This Thursday January 24, 2013, quilters and fabric lovers around the country will be showing their support for local, independent quilt and fabric shops on Visit Your Local (Independent) Quilt Shop Day. The One and Only Fabric Shop in Robertson County (Springfield,TN) will be kicking off local celebrations from 10:00 – 7:00 pm at 517 Memorial Blvd, Springfield,TN 37172 for special events that include:

  • A Charity sew and free lunch for “Pink Slipper Project” – Warming the Hearts & Toes of Women and Children in Shelters.  (Use one of Our sewing machines OR Bring your Own)
  • Special sales on quilting fabrics and notions
  • Raffle giveaway: A customer gift raffle for a Quilt Kit valued at over $150
  • Great demonstrations and videos throughout the day!
  • FUN photo contest to win a $500 shopping spree and sewing machine from Brother International. 

“This is one of the biggest days of the year to show support for local quilt shops,”says Donna Sandidge, owner of The Fabric Shop. “It’s a day to celebrate shops like mine, which creates local jobs and helps make this community unique. My shop is much more than a retail venue—it’s a place where sewists and quilters meet and make friends, trade stories about their latest projects, find inspiration, and get advice and assistance when they need it the most.”

The Fabric Shop will be encouraging customers to enter the “I Love My Local Quilt Shop” fan photocontest with the Grand Prize of a $500 Shopping Spree to spend at the shop plus a PC4200PRW Project RunwayTM Limited Edition Computerized Sewing Machine from Brother International Corporation (MSRP $649).
