One day at a time .....

SHOP UPDATE:  In the blink of an eye my life took an instant, life changing health turn that I had no warnings or signals of - at 11am on New Year's Eve I experienced a horrible heart attack - I live 2 blocks from an ER facility and I was there in about 15 minutes from onset of the extreme pain and profusely sweating ... how quickly I knew what was happening and getting to the ER, in addition to my awesome Lord's intervention and life saving expertise of the ER staff I was stabilized and ambulanced to the main hospital and rushed to cardiac cath.  I am here today with NO heart damage at all and it is pumping and working strong.  I do have to go back in on January 17th for 2 more stints in small arteries but I am here and doing pretty good, just tired a lot but that will improve with time.... Life is so very fragile and I treasure it more now than ever.  I am aiming to open the shop again in mid-February, I so look forward to seeing everyone again in a few more weeks. 
We are continuing to fill orders and are starting to receive commission jobs by appointment only.... 

Watch for 2022 special sale announcement, we are still having it but just delayed a bit ... 
        

Retired Sample Sales - you can find available retired sample sale quilts, runners, etc. in our Sales section of the web site - I have got a few posted and will add more as I have a few minutes free time.... Not available to purchase through the web site so you will have to call me direct (815-609-5831).. I will be posting on our web site and Facebook page ....  some retired samples are completed (quilted and bound runner/toppers/quilts) while some are just tops - they have never been personally used - only displayed in pet/smoking free shop environments.... you can also schedule a special appointment to look through them all at one time.      

****************************************************

PLEASE NOTE:    over 1500 bolts of fabrics now on our web site - amazing how much work it was but so excited that I am current and will add new fabrics as they arrive.  Crazy that it too me 15 years and Covid19 to decide to do this....  all our fabric is top of the line "quilt shop only" quality and are priced between $8.00 - $11.25 yard regardless of what manufacturer it is - we don't charge more for batik or fabrics with metallic accents.   If a bolt is listed "END OF BOLT" we have discounted the fabric price by 20% ... extra savings for you!   Hope you check out our beautiful fabrics and that we can be of service real soon!   Happy browsing and shopping.
Also, check out our patterns as we currently have over 500 in the shop and I am starting to drastically drop the price on specific patterns that were $8.50 - $10.00 down to $4.00 - up, to reduce our inventory.... once a pattern is sold it may not be brought back so check out our patterns often as I will keep adding more discounted ones until I have a bit more manageable inventory.    My down-sizing brings great savings into your pockets.
NO... we are not closing our shop or web site, just simplifying a bit.

I have been a bit slow on the reopening of the shop, as you may not know, I have three autoimmune diseases and am being extremely cautious and a bit nervous.  Please be considerate of all our other quilting friends/shoppers - if your work or your family situation makes you a higher risk possibility, or if you are not feeling well, please do not come to our shop.  Please leave children at home during this time, we love seeing the kids but it is harder to keep them occupied while you are distracted by all the beautiful fabrics and products.  
For your convenience, we will continue to provide curbside service or mail products to you.

When Entering the Shop we have hand sanitizer on a small table, please use as your enter and again when you are leaving the shop.

Also, during this time, our shop restroom will NOT be available except upon request,  so we can know when it’s used to maintain proper sanitizing.

Masks must be worn by each customer to provide additional safety measures.  If you forgot one you can purchase a disposable mask from us for $1.00 ea.   Our staff will also be wearing masks.
