Upcoming In-Person Event
We're doing our first in-person event this month! We've got a booth in the vendor hall of the Simcoe County Quilt, Rug, and Artisan Fair. While our booth is mostly Lindley General Store focused (quilt kits, bundles, stripology rulers, etc), but we'll also have some of our printed patterns available for sale, including printed copies of Memory Wall and Gertrude's Star.
Simcoe County Quilt, Rug and Artisan Fair
This quilt fair isn't just a vendor hall. There are all kinds of interactive displays and information on different fibre arts. There are quilts on display and a quilt competition. We've been in previous years and thoroughly enjoyed it, so while there is a small cost for admission, it is well worth it!
