Fourth of July
Greetings Quilters,
We all hope this email finds you well and happy. As the July 4th Holiday approaches and the temperature increases, we would like to naturally like to wish all of you a safe and joyous holiday. Another great reason to be thankful and rejoice is the AC has been repaired on Randy’s side (600).
We are aware of the ever increasing prices of just about everything - gas, food, even fabric. We are always working to keep prices as low as possible, and to make quilting affordable as well as enjoyable. By buying in bulk, integrating personal and business travel, combining shipments, not passing on credit card processing fees and inbound shipping expenses, and seeking the most economical method of shipping we are able to keep our prices competitive for you, our customers. Many thanks to all for your continued patronage.

*New Stuff - Plenty. Way too much to list. Come see us. Much to see and feel on both sides. Be sure to check the "New Arrival" Section on Thread Bear Fabrics
out the “Featured Fabrics” section. Each picture in the section represents a collection (a collection can contain up to 42 fabrics). Click on the picture and it will take you to the collection. The exciting thing, is all the fabrics in this section are up to 40% off list prices! Janet rotates these in and out periodically, so I encourage you to check this section frequently since it is always growing and changing. Enjoy!
*Rumors – Increased transit times due to MidEast events. Fear not, good people! It is highly unlikely we will run out of fabric; however some of our special orders may possibly be delayed.
*******************************************************
Just a few things to ponder while you are in your lawn chair with a burger and a beer, waiting for the fireworks to start:
* Ever read the bottom of the fireworks "Not intended for use by children. To be used only under adult supervision".
Yeah, the guy that just finished his 25th shot of tequila - let's give him a match, all the roman candles, and fireworks. That sounds like the responsible thing to do.
Remember: Drink the booze and you get to light the fuse!!!
* Buying fireworks from "Three Finger Don's Firework Emporium" may not be the savvy shopper's choice.
*Fireworks are much more amazing when you are not checking your iPhone.
* Even though your daughters T shirt is in patriotic colors, the logo, "I'M FREE! RU?" may have a double meaning.
* Red, white, and blue - patriotic colors right? Then why do some police cars have these colors on the light bars? When I get pulled over, freedom is not what comes to mind.
* Benjamin Franklin was reputed to be wise. Maybe this saying was his, and just did not make the history books:
"He who drinks a fifth on the 4th may not go forth on the 5th".
******************************************************
We wish all of you a Happy and Safe 4th of July. Party like a Patriot and here's to hoping all of you can count to five on each of your hands on the 5th of July.
Quilt on,
Janet + Randy / Tina / Jennifer / Jaime / Joseph
