We're open from 10:00-5:00 Monday to Saturday for your shopping convenience.  

We close Sunday's and stat holidays so we can all enjoy our families.

 

Our April Schedule is now here for your viewing enjoyment.

We welcome a bunch of new Bernina owners.  You’ll notice them by the grin that won’t leave their faces. 

Our fabric population has increased a great deal.  We’ve received almost 100 new batiks and more than that in regular cottons.  Since there’s so little other types of fabric in town at this time we’ve decided to diversify a little bit.  You’ll notice a beautiful line of Minkie and a bit of fleece and some licensed prints.  All the new quilters are certainly having a good time.  Our classes have been very successful and we hope you continue to enjoy what we have to offer.  Remember, we supply you with the quality you deserve.  You work hard on your project so you deserve it to last for many, many years.

Mrs. Landry’s Calendar Block

Wednesday, April 8th or Saturday, April 11th    10:30-4:00

I believe flowers and rabbits are what’s hoppening this month.  These blocks are turning out so nice.  There’s going to be some awesome calendars at the end of the year.  Once again we’ll offer a class on Saturday as well.  At the time I've had this web page posted there's no bunny on the sample.  It'll be there soon but it looks lovely in it's unfinished state anyway!

Starlight Express

Thursday, April 16th                  10:00-5:00

This class filled so quickly and we had some disappointed gals so we’ve offered it again.  If you’ve every wanted to try a lone star pattern but have been terrified of the dreaded “y” seam then dread it no more.  No “Y” seams so that means it’s easy.  You’ll use a jelly roll for this and you’ll be very pleased with the result.

Instructor:                                 Kathy Too

Instruction fee:                          $60.00 (includes book) $30.00 if you have the book

Spring Flower Box

Pinwheels and a border print makes this beautiful original creation.  Kathy Landry designed this one.   For something different, you’ll be learning how to miter borders.

Scrappy Stars Table Runner

Thursday, April 23rd or Saturday, April 25th      10:00-5:00

This is for those of you that like an easy day making a sweet table runner or you beginners that are ready to move on to the next easy project.  I made the sample from start to finish, and I mean finish in one easy day. It was sewn, quilted, bound and stitched.  We’ll kit up a floral spring runner and a country runner and you may choose your style as it’s included in the class fee.

Instructor:                                 Kathy Deaton

Instruction fee:                          $65.00 includes everything except thread to complete your runner.

 

April 10th is Good Friday.  Since most people don’t have a big dinner on that day we’d like to remain open for “play day”.  This would be a good day to get together and put together some quilts for those “Bags of Love” I was telling you about.  Bring your fabric and get working on this around fun loving quilters.  Get inspired and get rid of some of that fabric you’re not using!  We've just received a big box of beautiful quality cottons from Cheryl Hubbell to be used in these charity quilts.  So if you don't have any stash you're willing to part with you can come in and sew with this fabric.  Just let us know if you're able to come and do this.  We don't want to feel like wallflowers and no one shows up.

 Here is a reminder of class etiquette.  No cell phones unless you’re high on the organ transplant list.  Perfume is deadly to some so please refrain from using any on class day.  Remember all your supplies and arrive ready to work the second the class begins.  Our instructors are eager to teach so please give them your attention.  And please purchase your class fabric here.
