Hey Y'all! I have a very important announcement to make!
I have decided to retire! After 22+ years, I feel that I have given all that I have to give and that it is time for me to spend time with my husband, Pat, travel a bit and maybe write a book or two.
But what to do with Quilter's Emporium? I'm so happy to tell you that a buyer came forward earlier this year and as of July 1, Quilter's Emporium has new owners ... Jessie Campbell and her husband James!
They have exciting plans for Quilter's Emporium going forward and I'll leave it to them to share all of those with you as the time is appropriate. But the best news is that Quilter's Emporium will be here for years to come and that is the best gift that I could give to all of you!
I want to convey to each of you, my sincere thanks for your friendship, your business and all of the fun and laughter that you have shared with me over these many years.
I'm eternally grateful to all of the talented ladies who have worked for me over the years. The "long suffering" staff that currently works for me are truly amazing. Thank you ladies!
Rest assured, Jessie and James will claim and maintain our Janome and Elna dealership! They will continue to sell Janome and Elna machines and honor your warranties. They will be able to continue to service your machines at this location...so that should put your minds to rest!
I'm so happy to know that Quilter's Emporium will continue to grow and and inspire everyone on the joy of fabric and quilting!
Finally, a heartfelt thank you to each of you! If you see me at H-E-B or a garden center somewhere, be sure to stop and say hello!
I'm grateful to each of you, for giving me the joy of a lifetime... the privilege of being a business owner and being able to count YOU as a friend.
Please join me as I introduce Jessie and James at the Saturday Sampler meeting at 9:30 am tomorrow morning... on the 4th of July!!!!
All the best! Rose Ann
PS I will still post news about the dawgs on Joey the Shop Dogs FB page from time to time!
