			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.crazyshortcutquilts.com/finish-almost-any-quilt/"><img src="http://www.logcabinquilts.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/CoverFAQ-170.jpg" alt="" title="CoverFAQ-170" width="170" height="225" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-128" /></a><br />
   The very first sentence in the book &#8216;This is not a traditional quilt book&#8217; tells you that you are in for a treat!  So many quilting instruction books are published these days and after a while they all run together.  </p>
<p>   Every day my customers come in and say &#8216;I can&#8217;t buy anything else until I finish the projects I&#8217;ve started&#8217;.  Well, no I have just the book to offer them to help with that objective.</p>
<p>    Many subjects are covered in this book &#8211; finishing existing blocks, setting the blocks with or without sashings, setting those blocks in a straight manner or on point, with or without borders.  Marguerita is also honest by telling you that not all blocks and or quilts will work with the &#8216;finish as you go&#8217; method.</p>
<p>    Finish (almost) Any Quilt is self-published.  This allowed Marguerita to include far more color pictures and illustrations than you will ever find in a book released by one of the major publishers.  Marguerita also shot videos as she created the projects for the book.  She is releasing those videos as an added bonus on her Crazy Shortcut  Quilts Youtube Channel (be sure you subscribe so you don&#8217;t miss a one of them).</p>
<p>    There is no way you can go wrong with this book if you are working your way through your stash.  I have added it to my quilt book library and I&#8217;m recommending it to my students and customers.</p>

<p>
We are all looking for timesavers so we have more time to actually quilt.</p>
<p>A die-cutter and a few dies will really help you &#8216;bust your stash&#8217;.  Once you get in the habit of cutting those leftover pieces into useable strips and squares, you&#8217;ll find that making a scrap quilt is a breeze.</p>
<p>You can&nbsp;<A href="http://webstore.quiltropolis.net/stores_app/Browse_Dept_Items.asp?Store_id=748&#038;page_id=17&#038;categ_id=198" target=_blank>click here</A> to see all of the Sizzix Quilting Die Cutters and dies that we are offering.  Some of them will need to be special ordered but there&#8217;s still time.  Just let us know by December 11th what to put in your shopping bag and we&#8217;ll get it ordered.</p>
<p>One thing to note, Sizzix dies <strong>will not </strong> work in the Accuquilt Go! cutter but the Accuquilt Go! dies <strong> will </strong> work in the Big Shot.  Accuquilt Studio dies, as well as Go! dies work in the Big Shot Pro. <br /></br><br />
<SPAN style="COLOR: #ff0000"><STRONG>25% off regular price<br />
from December 7th through December 16th</STRONG></SPAN>&nbsp; </p>
<p>Please leave a comment if you be interested in a video (or two) on how I use the Accuquilt dies with my own Big Shot Pro machine</p>

                                                    <UL><br />
                                                        <LI>December&nbsp;6th through December 16th, we will post a short video describing the newly discounted items. We are still looking around and making our list (and checking it twice) so we really can&#8217;t tell you just exactly what&nbsp;they will be right now.<br />
                                                        <LI>The special pricing for those items will be available through December 16th (or when we run out of&nbsp;an item).<br />
                                                        <LI>If you would like for us to put one in your gift bag, call us during shop hours, or order it online** and we will hold it for you. Of course, you can always come into the shop and purchase the item immediately.<br />
                                                        <LI>You DO NOT have to buy anything each day &#8211; only those that appeal to you. Be sure to forward the email to the Santa(s) in your family with a big hint as to what you like each day. We are really good at keeping secrets so tell Santa to fill your bag! The other thing to remember, quantities will be limited on some of these offers. Don&#8217;t wait too long to place that order, you might lose out!<br />
                                                        <LI>We are not open on Sunday, so you&#8217;ll place your order online** those days.<br />
                                                        <LI>You can come into the shop (better yet, send Santa) on or&nbsp;after December 16th to pick up your bag of goodies. It will be ready to put under your Christmas tree &#8211; act really surprised that morning! We will ship all online orders on the 17th using 2nd Day Priority.</p>
<li>You&#8217;ll be able to find these same video announcements on a special tab (Christmas Countdown in the lefthand column) of our <a href="http://www.facebook.com/logcabinquiltshop" title="Log Cabin Quilt Shop Facebook page" target="_blank">Facebook page</a>.<br />
                                                    </UL></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So, how soon after you pack up the leftovers from your Thanksgiving meal do you kick in high gear for Christmas?  It seems to have become a tradition to sit down on Thursday afternoon with the stack of ads (stores really outdid themselves this year, didn&#8217;t they) and come up with a plan of attack for shopping excursions.</p>
<p>If you are making Christmas gifts this year, when did you start?  Or&#8230;..have you started yet?  Are you still looking for last minute, quick-to-make, ideas that you can whip in an evening or two?  Are those handmade gifts tucked away in the closet just waiting for you to wrap them up?  Or&#8230;. will you be taking the last binding stitch as the alarms go off in the bedrooms?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a curious thing and I&#8217;ll admit, I&#8217;m no different.  Procrastination reigns supreme in my life and most of the time it gets in the way of accomplishing anything at all.  We bargain with ourselves saying &#8216;If I do this today, then I can put off that until tomorrow&#8217; but tomorrow never comes and &#8216;that&#8217; never gets done.</p>
<p>So, leave a comment and tell me how you&#8217;ve overcome the procrastination syndrome.  I promise I&#8217;ll read that comment &#8230;..hmmmm&#8230;. tomorrow????  </p>
<p>All kidding aside, please do let us all know what steps you&#8217;ve taken to become more productive.  Most of us need all the help we can get!</p>
<p>Keep Stitching!<br />
Margie</p>

<p>Happy Thanksgiving from all of us here at the Log Cabin Quilt Shop.  We hope your day is filled with family, friends, laughter, and LOTS of good food.</p>
<p>Take a few minutes to give thanks for all we have.  Remember those who are not able to be with you on this holiday.  Say a prayer for those that must be away from their loved ones so that we might all be able to celebrate freely.  </p>
<p>We just want you to know that we are very thankful for your friendship throughout the year, not on just one day of the year.</p>
<p>Keep Stitching!<br />
Margie </p>
