"ON THE ROAD AGAIN" BUS TRIP
We are excited to announce that we have finalized the plans for a bus trip. "On the Road Again" is official!!! We are planning a day trip on Monday, August 1st, to the South Central section of the Quilt MN Shop Hop. You will receive a bundle of (8) fat quarters at the last shop of the day. We will leave Clara City at 7 am and travel east to Cabby's Corner Quilts & Fabric in Gibbon, staying in the easterly direction, we will then stop at Sue's Quilt Shop in New Prague. Once again we will travel easterly to reach Quilting by the Hearth in Lonsdale. The bus will turn south and stop for lunch (included in bus price) and shopping at Quilters Dream in Montgomery. Continuing south, we will stop at River City Quilts in Mankato and once again start north for home stopping in New Ulm to visit the three remaining shops there as well as grab a bite to eat (supper on your own). We hope to be back to Clara City around 8:30 am. Cost is $79.00 per person. We ask that you fill the form out on our website.
Please send a check to us at: Shades of the Past, PO Box 765, Clara City, MN 56222.

Flag Day Bouquet
June 14th is Flag Day. In a world of turmoil, the flag is still a powerful symbol. As Ronald Reagan stated, "When we honor our flag, we honor what we stand for as a nation - freedom, equality, justice and hope". Words well said. This is a quick to piece project using machine applique. It requires one charm pack and a small amount of additional fabric for the applique and binding. Project measures approximately 23 x 28 inches. We used Woolies Flannel from
Maywood Studio in our sample.
