Fabric Deal in San Jacinto

Good afternoon, my name is Frances Hays and I work for The Hidden Treasure Emporium, San Jacinto, CA.        
885 W 7th St.
San Jacinto
Phone: 951 487 2595
We buy many products, one of which is full or partial estates.   Recently we purchased from a retired lady her fabric for quilting.  We have many yards of material from 1 yard to about 2 1/2 yards.   We also have many small pieces that run about 45”X 18”, some more some less.  The yardage will be selling for $2.00 per yard, and the smaller pieces will be selling for .25 a piece.6
 
There are many pieces of blue, and an assortment of other colors.    When all the material is displayed it will take about 3 double clothing racks, sorted by color.
the smaller pieces will be sorted by color and displayed on a table. 
 
I expect this will be available by Saturday.   Our hours are:
Monday-Friday: 8am-7pm
Saturday & Sunday: 9am-5pm
Thank you for taking time to read this message.

Another Challenge

I was sick and missed the July meeting - heard it was a fabulous one!  Over 36 challenge quilts were shown - photos later.  Food good as always.  Yummy show n share.

Our next challenge is to make a landscape quilt!  Elly says:

Nature is so inspiring.  This is the basis for our next challenge.  Take a scene from nature: trees, leaves, ocean, lake, river, underwater, snowy mountains, etc., and turn it into a landscape quilt.  The minimum size is 20" x 14" before the borders are added (borders are not required).  The quilt can hang either vertical or horizontal.  Quilts completed up to the binding (as in quilt must be quilted) are eligible to be entered into the prize offering.  More than one quilt can be made and entered.  Every quilt submitted has an equal chance of winning.  Below are some examples found from a simple landscape quilt search from Google images.
