Great Things Are Happening At Zoe's Trunk.

Just one more day left for two great opportunities at Zoe's.

Today is the last day of June and the last day to begin your Cumulative Discount Card.  Your purchase of $25 or more in regularly priced merchandise will be discounted 10% and you'll receive a stamp on your card.  Qualifying purchases in July will be discounted 20% with each June stamp and in August, the savings move to 30% with each June and July stamp!  Now is the time to lock in your savings for the remainder of the summer!  You already have your card started? Great!  You'll want to add a stamp for the increased benefits later!  Remember, a completely filled in card will be exchanged at the end of August for a $50 gift certificate for September shopping!

Today, also, is the last day to sign up for our Long Beach Bus Trip to the International Quilt Festival.  We have - literally - a couple of seats left and we'd love to have YOU come join the fun!

When you stop in the shop, be sure to check out the new PINK vinyl mesh!  Can you imagine the attention you will get at the grocery store with beautiful bright pink (but ecofriendly "green") bags?!?

We've also received, Glace, by Three Sisters for Moda, beautiful, elegant Christmas fabric AND three great extra-wide backing fabrics!

Don't forget our Fat Quarter Roulette will meet at 10 AM this Saturday.  This is a great opportunity to meet and exchange blocks with other creative quilters.  Everyone who participates will win a quilt! 

Yes, we'll be open on the 4th but for special shopping hours.  It's our Annual 40% off Fat Quarters on the Fourth from Seven to Eleven Sale!

If you pick us some great fat quarters for a new project, you might enjoy coming to our Zoe's Sew-In on Friday, the 10th.  From 6 PM till midnight you'll sew, enjoy the dinner we order in and enjoy the company of creative people just like YOU!

Keep cool!  Keep quilting!

Arizona Historical Museums and State Budget Cuts

We have become aware of the increasing threat of funding losses to some of our favorite state historical sites, due to cuts in the state budgets.

In a recent post to True West Magazine (twmag.com), Bob Boze Bell, executive editor, posted this letter to their readers from Vince Murray, Historian, Arizona Historical Research.

We are inviting our friends that value the importance of the museums and historical research, to take a moment to read this letter and join the cause to help save this important part of our Arizona legacy.

We are all working to tighten our personal, business and government spending but we need to remember that once these institutions are closed they will, most likely, be gone from us, our families and our future.

The reason to preserve and honor the past has not gone away because of the economic situation we now find ourselves facing. In fact, to many, it makes it more important to preserve our great history and learn from it.
