Day 7: One More Sleep! The Grand-ish Reopening Is Almost Here!

Hello Beautiful Golden Anchor Quilting Community,

When I was little, when something exciting was on the horizon, my family would count down in “sleeps.” My brother and I would wake up each morning and ask, “How many more sleeps until…?” and when we got to “one more sleep,” we knew the magic was almost here.

Well, Golden Anchor Community… ONE MORE SLEEP!
Tomorrow is our Grand-ish Reopening—and we finally get to be together again.

This journey hasn’t been easy, but it’s been full of grace, grit, laughter, and community. We are so excited to welcome you back—into a space filled with hope, color, creativity, and heart.
