I hope you’re busy working on a project—or happily searching for the next one! I haven’t been at the shop lately, as I’m dealing with some health issues and need to take a little time to rest and heal. My 50-year-old son has officially grounded me—yes, really! I had to laugh and ask him how it felt now that the shoe is on the other foot. He certainly had his share of growing up with no leniency, and I can only say… he’s more like his mom than he realizes. I’m incredibly grateful for my amazing staff and dear friends who are keeping the shop running smoothly, and I can assure you that new fabric is still arriving. I miss seeing everyone and look forward to being back when I can. At this time I can’t have visitors or flowers, but prayers and well wishes are truly appreciated. If you’d like to send a note or card, the shop will be sure it gets to me—I’ve already received a few, and I can’t tell you how much your kindness and concern mean to me. I hope to see you soon!

FAMILY THREADS SIGN
Thankfully, a wonderful customer (Jeannie) spotted it tucked into the shrubs near our classroom and let us know. We definitely felt a little naked without it, but we’re happy to say it’s now fixed and back up where it belongs. Huge thanks to our amazing community for always looking out for us! |

TOWN EVENTS
Two events will be happening in San Juan Bautista in the next few months - the Craft Fair and the Rib Cook Off. Because of the chaos and lack of available parking we will be closed two Saturdays. Closed: Saturday, March 28 Closed: Saturday, May 9 |

WHAT'S NEW AND HAPPENINGThis month caught us a bit by surprise, and while we try to keep up with social media, not everything makes it to our feeds right away. As the month unfolds, you’ll start seeing more pop up on social media. If you’d like to follow along between newsletters, you’ll find us here: And don’t forget to tag us and use #familythreadsquiltshop — seeing what you’re creating is truly one of the best parts of our job. Until next time, keep calm and stitch on!

CLASSESOur class schedule is lighter right now as our main instructors are currently out, and we don’t yet have a timeline for when regular classes will resume. While things are quiet on the class front, the shop remains a welcoming place to gather, sew, and connect—and we’ll be sure to share updates here in the newsletter. Did you know? Our classroom is also available to rent! It’s a bright, comfortable space that’s perfect for guild meetings, small workshops, or creative gatherings. We kindly ask that people using the space be mindful of shop hours when making end-of-day purchases and packing up, so our staff isn’t kept late. See our classroom page for details. |

During the windstorm we had a while back, our shop sign decided to take an unexpected adventure and completely blew down!
