A note of thanks to all of our loyal customers!
Nothing lasts forever!
It is with mixed emotions that we have decided close Glad Creations sometime
after the 1st of the year. We
opened the shop in 1976. That’s 42 years
ago. We never imagined that we would
still be in business in 2018. It has
been a wonderful and fulfilling adventure.
We have become friends with so many people, worked with beautiful
fabrics, learned new techniques and have loved inspiring and teaching
others. But we have decided that it’s
time to turn the page to the next phase of our lives, retirement. We talked to several quilters who wished to
own a quilt shop. Isn’t that everyone’s
dream? But as of now, nothing has worked
out.
Our plan is to run our shop as usual until the end of
2018. We still have some classes coming
up and new fabric coming in. We have a
huge shipment of Hoffman batiks on the way, some reorders of our Aboriginal
prints and a new group from Moda called Voysey, based on some prints from the
Victoria and Albert Museum. We will start
our liquidation sale on the 1st of the year, during our annual New
Year’s sale. Our yearly staff quilt show
“Our Color Story” will be on display from January 1 – 12. Sad that this will be our last show! What a wonderful staff we have been blessed
with. We plan to continue marketing the Glad
Creations pattern line. Final plans for how
that will work are not yet determined. We will be working out the final
liquidation details and will let you know of our plans through our E-mail
updates and on our facebook page. Be
sure to follow us!
And a special word of thanks to all of you for your support
and your friendship. We have shared joys
and sorrows, laughter and grieving with so many of you. You have become like family. We will miss you and can’t thank you enough
for your friendship.
Nancy and Susan
