May already???

Where has the time gone? I do apologise for the lack of newsletters this year from Constantine Quilts. Always busy servicing customers of course & looking to keep up with life! I have spoken to many over this time & have enjoyed our conversations always.

I have been madly quilting a special quilt for my sister, Helen Stubbings of Hugs’n’Kisses ready to take to International Quilt Market. Here are a few photos to wet your appetite!! She will be releasing this to shops as a BOM when it is all ready…

There is currently a special deal on the website & in magazine advertisements for the Infinite Feathers CD.

Would you like to turn something that looks like this

into something that looks like this?

Whether it is for yourself, a customer, or a show quilt, this DVD will give you step by step instruction on how to take Plain Jane quilts and turn them into spectacular works of art!

Price: $AU40.00

I am off to the USA in a couple of days time so all orders on the website will be sent out in order of receipt upon my return on the 23rd May. Constantine Quilts will be physically closed until this time, but you can always order online & it will be here waiting for me to complete when I touch down & wake up again….

The Aussie dollar is still wavering around the $1- or just below, so great pricing for both the A1 Quilting machine & the Intelliquilter.

Did you know that there are more options with a computerised system now to get you started on the journey of discovery??

Better get packing now…. big trip ahead! Off to teach at HMQS arriving this Wednesday & then travelling to Portland, OR by car with great friends to then attend International Quilt Market. I will be on the lookout for new & exciting products to bring home for you all.

Until next time…

cheers
