Reminder: Open House This Weekend
Join us for an open house THIS SATURDAY, June 11th from 10am to 4pm.
Our beloved Marilyn will be giving a "Template Talk" at 11am and 2pm.
She'll be sharing about templates – how to use them and why they're nothing to be afraid of!
Plus, we'll be announcing a new block-of-the-month that day (there's a sneak peek of what it is in the video!).
Or, if you're just in it for the cookies made by OOH Friend, Geraldine, or the coffee from Sierra Café, that's great too. :)
