For store news and subscriber coupons, please ask to be on my mailing list - here's the link to contact methods, so you can send me your email address.

Hours - Monday - Saturday 9:30 a.m.  to 5:00 p.m.  If you know you are going to be here close to 5:00, please let us know and someone will stay late.

Store Sales:
June special - Please note there are changes on the coupon special.  It only applies to regular priced fabric, kits not already on sale, and batting.  Precuts such as layer cakes, charm packs are included with the discount coupon.  Fat quarters will be included, as long as you purchase at least 4.  Any questions, be sure to ask me.  I still have some batiks at 40% off.  Sale fabrics, if you finish a bolt, are half off the original price.

AccuQuilt specials change frequently.  Please give me a call to see what they are.  Often, I can only tell you what that week's special is, one week at a time.

News:
Lots of new fabrics are in.  We are hoping to get the fabrics on line for you to see remotely.  There are a lot of them, so this is going to be a lengthy process.

Imagine that Club - There's still time to sign up.  Pay $5.00 for a fat quarter (everyone gets the same fabric), then make anything your imagination tells you, (except pot holders).  Our unveiling party will be September 8th.  Food, fun, and special discounts for participants that day.

Quilt Retreats in 2018 - Two retreats are scheduled for October 12, 13, and 14 and October 19, 20, and 21.  The Barnsion is five miles east of Harlowton.  Cost will be $175.00 for two nights, 4 meals, and one project kit.  Bedding and towels are furnished.  If you have been to the Barnsion, you know it is a great facility.

Quilt retreats update - I have added a third retreat at the Barnsion in October.  The first two, which appear to be full (if not over-full), are the second and third weekends in October.  The dates of the third retreat are October 26, 27, and 28.
    I have been cooking for these events, and we may have a couple of the meals catered.  Cost for the third retreat is still $175, which includes two nights, 4 meals, and at least one kit for a small project.  Questions or to sign up, please call me at the number above.
    Can't make it in October?  April 2019 dates have been set.

Farmer's Wife quilt

2017 Imagine That project
Join the sewing fun at Diana's Quilts-n-Things!

My quilting groups are friendly gatherings where you can concentrate, share, work, and learn.  My store has special equipment and work space for quilters to use, and lots of materials and patterns.  Come on in to work on your projects - where everything you need is at hand, including new techniques and experienced advice.

PREPARATIONS: If a club or class member is bringing a guest, or if you want to attend a single session, or if you are a class subscriber and want to switch Saturdays, please contact Diana beforehand.

1st Saturday of each month in 2017 was Sew Saturday sewing quilts for charity - all hands are welcome, no fee, potluck.  It does help if you let me know you are planning to attend.  Fabric donations are welcome!

My Imagine That Club is an annual challenge.  Each Imagine That Club participant receives a free fat quarter of a select fabric to inspire a project, and then works at home to create whatever they imagine from it.  An Imagine That project can be a quilt, a wall hanging, or whatever someone wants to make.  There is just one limitation:  "NO potholders, please."  Use your Imagination!  Your project can be any size and may include other fabrics as you like, but it must include at least part of the fat quarter.  (Small pieces count.)  In August or September all the participants will get together for an Unveiling Party with food and prizes.  $5 participation fee, open to anyone.

If you have questions on any of these, please give me a call. (406-632-4861)


Saturday classes are all day classes starting at 9:30 a.m. and running until 4:30 p.m.

Mother and child 12 Months of Holidays:
In 2014, we sewed the 12 Months of Christmas, completing easy Christmas projects including a Christmas stocking, themed wall hangings, coasters, table centers and table mats, and a mug rug.

In 2015, we sewed 12 Months of Holidays.  This included a different project each month and many different techniques.  Kits for the projects were priced at 25% off.  These quick and easy projects help you decorate for holidays, and make seasonal gifts.  To attend for a specific project, pay a class fee, plus the cost of the kit.

January featured a Valentine's Day wall hanging, using reverse applique.
February featured a Easter project.
March featured a Spring project.
April featured a Paper Pieced table runner for Mother's Day.
May featured a Tumbler block flag for July.

This Saturday activity runs all day, starting at 9:30 a.m.

Sew Saturday quilts for charity. Sew Saturday:
We will be sewing quilts to donate for charity fund raisers.  Some quilts will be going to the Yellowstone Boys and Girls Ranch, some to Special K Ranch in Columbus, some to A Safe Place in Helena, which is for Military women suffering from Post Traumatic Stress, and others where ever else we feel they can be used.

To keep up our stamina, each Sew Saturday will feature a pot luck lunch.

1st Saturday of each month, from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.  Anyone is welcome.  If you can, please let me know by the day before, if you would like to participate or donate fabric.

GoGo Club was a Monday night club in 2010.

Detail from Progressive quilt Progressive Quilt:
There is no pattern for the progressive quilt - each person creates a quilt center from good quality 100% cotton fabric, and passes the started quilt on to another group member, who adds the next section, and so on.  When a quilt has been completed, with care from everyone in the group, it returns to the person who started it to keep.  There's a better picture of this quilt in the Gallery.

The Progressive Quilt was a Monday night club in 2011.

Scaregirl wall hanging (detail) Seasonal Club:
We enjoy making small projects related to the seasons.  Wall hangings, table runners, and other fun fabric art items make it easy to dress up our homes.

The Seasonal Club was a Monday night club in 2012.
