Longarm Quilting Services
 
Balloons"Sewfie" is 1 this month!  Our Gammill Statler Stitcher is celebrating her 1st birthday!  We've given her quite a workout in the last year quilting well over 200 quilts for staff and customers.  We'd like to remind you that the holidays are approaching at a speed that is hard to comprehend!  If you are thinking that you would like a quilt quilted to give as a gift you'd best start planning!  In order to guarantee that your quilt will be ready by December 15 (to give you time for binding, etc.) we are asking that you bring it to us no later than November 23 (the day before Thanksgiving). Please call in advance for an appointment with either Paula or Jody.  One or both are there almost every day so you're sure to find a time that works for you.  If you'd like more information about our quilting services, click here.

Happy Hour

October Fat Quarters

Cotton Club Block of the Month 

Cotton ClubWe are so excited to announce that the Granary will be offering the new Cotton Club Blocks of the Month program featuring patterns and fabrics designed by Bonnie Blue Quilts! The fabric collection was created around an antique border print from the mid 1800's, along with antique coordinates in varying shades of red and brown. The 78" x 85" quilt contains 45 sampler style 5" blocks set in vertical pieced columns. We call this a "blocks" of the month program because you will receive patterns for 4 or 5 blocks each month. The blocks are designed and grouped together utilizing a specific technique or similarity in block design, progressing from the easiest to the more challenging techniques. 

 

The Cotton Club program will begin in September and run through August 2012. Kits run $24.95 plus tax per month; shipping is available for an additional cost. Call the shop today or come by for more details and to see our completed shop sample made by the Granary's Kris Clarkson! It's beautiful! This quilt is recommended for intermediate to advanced quilters.
