Ellie Sew Sweet went to camp

Ellie Sew Sweet went to camp with...

Cutting Edge Quilts

and 

AZB4K

...and what a blast we had!

Here is some of the things we did!

This is one of the many preemie quilts we made with kits provided by 

Arizona Blankets 4 Kids

We had plenty of Sew Sweet demos from our campers including:

A Flower Pin

A Mini Pot Holder

A Heart Shaped Sand Filled Pincushion

And a Sew Sweet Keychain
made from scrap fabric, batting and buttons.

Although we all kept busy sewing, we made time to play BINGO

Using our own collections of buttons


Had a Fat Quarter Swap
using Right-Left-Center Dice

Gave away door prizes and

Had Two Grand Prize Winners!

Congratulations to Kittie and Dianna!

All in all, we chatted, sewed, ate lots of delicious food,

(the camp cooks are the best)

shared tons of tip and stories and just plain enjoyed 

our Girl Time!

Quilt Camp 2011

Sew Busy!

Ellie Sew Sweet has been Sew Busy this month!

On August 4th, I went to my first Craft Night with Lolly Jane Boutique!

I met two of the cutest sisters, Kelli and Kristi, who were the perfect hostesses!

I ate delicious food, chatted with new friends, had fun working on my board

and even won a super cute door prize from Tinker B Boutique

These are two of the new friends I made:

August 12th- August 15th, 2011

We will be back in Thumb Butte cabin this year. Click the Emmanuel Pines link above to check out this lovely lodging. Camp begins with dinner on Friday night and includes lodging and meals through Sunday lunch. The sewing room is big and bright and the perfect place to escape our heat and do what we love. Your time is spent doing whatever you like best. You can sew, crochet, knit or pull up a chair on the patio and read all weekend. Guests are encouraged to share demonstrations of tips or techniques. Elliot has chosen an apron theme for the camp and will give a demo of a new pattern. There will be games! Bring at least 3 fat quarters to play the Fat Quarter Swap Game with left/right/center dice. We'll also be playing BINGO and will have cards if any anyone wants to play Fabric Strip Poker. There will be a big door prize basket and other goody give-aways too.

All of this could be yours for the low, low price of $150. Call (480) 857-3443 or visit Cutting Edge Quilts today to reserve your spot. Registration and payments should be made by July 15th. Spaces are limited so don't wait, call today! Cutting Edge is now located in the Historic District of Downtown Chandler at 64 San Marcos Place. 

I am Sew excited to share this information with my blog followers!

We have been enjoying camp now for 9 years and I have had the pleasure of being "Camp Director" for each one!

There are still spaces available, so call Cutting Edge Quilts today to reserve your spot and

Come To Camp With EllieSewSweet!
