Patchwork Party!
Patchwork Party Logo - Small
This is our first year as one of 12 stores nationwide hosting the Patchwork Party, and we are excited to be a part of this program! We have our quilt designed, the pattern "mostly written" for our finishing kit and accessories, and are half-done putting it together and testing the pattern. We start cutting block kits in several weeks so we can be ready for the October 1st start date! Scroll down for more details.

     Did Anyone Say Fabric?         

 

UPS and FedEx have been hauling in the boxes and it's like Christmas around here as we open them up. "Look at this!", "WOW", "I forgot I ordered this!", and "Where are we going to put it all?" are heard in the back room!

  

New As part of our store renovation, we've created a new space in the store to showcase New Arrivals. For our online customers, just click on the familiar New icon. For folks coming to the shop, be sure to check the new section each time you come in so you don't miss out!
