Dear fellow quilters,

  It's hard to believe that we are going into our 7th year.  It has been fun and we have met so many great  people over the years.  We are sure glad that you stuck with us as we learned and grew.  We have made mistakes but hopefully we have learned from them.  If you haven't been in for a while, stop in and spend some time with us.  We love to talk about quilting and would love to become your "home" quilt shop. We appreciate all of you more than you know.

  We have a few new classes coming up and we have brought back some of the all time favorites.  We bring back some of the favorites every so often because we have keep adding new quilters to the family and these are such great patterns to learn. 

    Check out the Birthday Celebration sale and Girls Nite out info below.   There is still time to get in on the summer class special.  Take 3 classes and get the 4th class free.  

    Is there any interest in a class on learning Silk Ribbon Embroidery or traditional embroidery stitches that could be used on a Crazy quilt or to embellish a quilt.  We also have a someone who will teach you how to knit with fabric strips.  We have a sample of a purse in the shop.  Stop in and take a look.  Last but not least, would like a class on machine embroidery.  We have seen a real cute pattern and may be able to line up a teacher.  Let me know either by e-mail or call the shop.  We want to try to meet your needs, just let us know what you want.


I hope you enjoyed the great sales during our customer appreciation month.

I love this table and I am sure you will too!!   It's made of Lucite and fits right around your sewing machine.  It gives you a nice large working area for sewing.  You can keep your book or pattern under the clear table for easy reference.  If you would like to order one, we will need your sewing machine make, model number and a deposit.  Stop in the shop to take a look and order yours today.  I am sure that you will love this table as much as I do. 





Build a great fabric stash by joining our Fat Quarter of the Month Club - Each first of the month, members will receive a shop selection of five (5) fq's from newly arrived fabrics.  No shipping charges, Visa or MasterCard only.  Cancel anytime before shipment.  Only $13.50 a month.

Come out and join the fun and get to know other quilters.  We have a small group that meets on Monday evenings at 6 PM to sit and sew (hand or machine) and to enjoy each others company.  If you are interested in joining us, please give me a call.  I'll keep the coffee pot full.




If you would like to use our tables to sandwich a quilt or if you need room to cut something out, you are welcome to use our class room.  You are welcome even if you would like to sit and sew.  Just call to make sure there isn't a class before you come over.
