- Exciting Noodle Shuffle 2008 - 2007-12-18 10:50:47-05
Hi Quilters/NOODLENIKS!
WE know we haven't finished the Holiday Season for 2007 but we thought it might be good to start the year right with a little message of what is to come in 2008. Y
our Noodle Queens have decided on bimonthly noodle shuffles for 2008. This will allow more time for international shipping. It is very expensive to send any other way than snailmail (and you know how long it takes a snail just to get across the sidewalk, imagine from the US to Australia!
So, what can you expect next year?! Lots more fun! We have decided to have a double shuffle in July with Christmas fabrics. One will be metallic/glitter and the other tone-on-tone. Other topics in no particular order are reproductions from 1930s, florals on black, country/farms, brights. Oh, and our January kickoff is Beach/Under the Sea! By giving you the topics of future shuffles now, we hope you can take advantage of any sales you come across. We suggest 2½ yards/metres to make sure you have enough to cover each shuffle, including 4 extra noodles for the auction. We can all use extra fabrics for our stash if it all is not needed, right?! We have some other surprises in store for you, so continue watching for our emails!
We expect to have an exciting year in 2008 and hope you will ALL join us in the Shuffles. If you have friends that are not members as yet, why not have them stick in an extra set of noodles with yours and see what they get? Maybe it will entice them to join Creative-Quilting too! Just indicate to us that you will be doing so when you register.
We are presently working on some flyers that you will be able to print out and leave at your favorite quilt shops that will hopefully entice folks to join Creative-Quilting as well. If you have any other ideas how we can get new members for both Creative Quilting and the Noodle Shuffles, please email us and let us know! We welcome your input on everything!
Anna, Joyce, and I look forward to working with you during the coming year. We are trying to do what we can make the Shuffles more efficient and timely.
JANUARY/FEBRUARY SHUFFLE - BEACH/UNDER THE SEA - You can sign up at any time from now until January 15. You will have from January 15 until January 31 to get the noodles in the mail to your hostesses. It is the intention of the hostesses to get a personal note to you within a week of your signing up to acknowledge your registration and to give you more details on the shuffle. The noodles should be received by the hostesses by the 15th of the following month and all mailings will occur the week after that to ensure you have the noodles in your hands by the end of the second month. If you have questions, contact us!
Thanks for all your past support and we look forward to working with you in 2008!
Happy Holidays!
Joyce, Anna, BJ

A noodle shuffle is a great way for quilters and people interested in quilting to swap Noodles (2-1/2 inch strips of fabric). Members of a noodle shuffle send each other fabric to use in their quilts.
