One day at a time .....
Happy Spring..... please continue to be safe, social distance as much as possible so we can remain healthy for 2021!       
FYI - 5/3/2021   

PLEASE NOTE:    1499 bolts 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 Covid 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 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.

Social Distancing - There will be a limit of 4 customers in the shop at any one time.   If you arrive and there are already 4 here, we will ask that you patiently wait in your car.  We expect customers to maintain the recommended 6 foot distance from other customers and staff.

Classes/Demos will not resume at this time.  This will be reconsidered at a later time if Covid19 issues all for safe consideration and participation 

If you have an questions or suggestions for our shop opening, please feel free to call me.

Thank you for your support and respect of our opening guidelines.

We "sew" look forward to seeing you!!!
