Welcome to 2022 everyone! We hope you have all had a happy and healthy break these past few weeks. Due to high Covid case numbers at the moment, the shop being part of our home and our desire to keep our families, staff and customers as safe as possible, we have made the decision to remain closed to walk-in customers for the time being. We will be operating with a skeleton staff Monday through Friday 10am to 4pm, and will continue processing online orders and taking phone orders during this time. Contactless pick up will also be available.

We are happily accepting quilts for edge-to-edge long arm quilting, and contactless drop off is available at our front door. A selection of patterns and thread choices can be viewed on our website (click here) or if you let us know in advance, we can have our pattern book and thread chart at the door ready for you to have a browse through. We wil also do a phone consult with you prior to quilting your quilt.
