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: 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. My November Coupon Special applies to regularly priced fabrics, pre-cuts, kits not already on sale, and batting - minimum 1 yard cuts. Patterns and books are not included. Sewing notions under $10.00 are also not included. There will be special sales starting on Black Friday, running a full week through our Anniversary Open House days November 30 and December 1. Note that you can still take advantage of the specials that week if you have already used a newsletter coupon in November. AccuQuilt specials change frequently. Please give the store a call to see what they are. Often, I can only tell you what that week's special is, one week at a time. I do the same specials AccuQuilt offers, but you get our personal service. News: Diana's Quilts -n- Things Anniversary Open House - November 30 and December 1st - The celebration features special sales, door prizes, hot spiced cider, and cookies. *New!* starting in January - 12 months of Mariners Compass class. The beginning date will be revealed in next month's email newsletter. Our new Imagine That Club started in September with a new fat quarter. Your $5.00 payment for the fat quarter joins the prize pool for the year. Our project unveiling date will be September 6, 2019. Everyone gets the same fat quarter, to make whatever their imagination tells them to (except pot holders.) The fat quarter material can be combined with any other fabrics, as long as it is used in the project. Sun Dog Coffee Shop will be opening in Harlowton in November. It is located on the corner of Central and Highway 12, across from the train engine. Quilt Retreats: My quilt retreats are held at The Barnsion, five miles east of Harlowton. It's a wonderful facility, with bedding and towels furnished. The cost is $175.00, which includes two nights, 4 meals, and at least one kit. These are "sew on your own" projects, you should bring whatever you want to sew, although I try to have a fun new project that you can make and take home. Any questions or to sign up, please call the store at 406-632-4861. April 2019 dates will be 5th-6th-7th and 12th-13th-14th. October 2019 dates are 11th-12th-13th, October 18th-19th-20th (12 openings only), and October 25th-26th-27th. I like to keep the retreats small with a maximum of 15. Update - We may be adding a day, so that quilters can come in on Thursday, and still leave on Sunday. An extra day will increase the cost. I have to discuss this with the Barnsion owners before a final decision is made. If you have signed up, please let me know your preference about number of days. Classes and Events: Special class, November 10, marriage of Sunbonnet Sue (AccuQuilt die) to Janome's Embroidery Machine 500e. Linda DeCock will be teaching this class, demo 10:00 a.m. to noon. In the afternoon, there will be a hands-on class. If you have an embroidery machine, bring it with along with hoops, thread, stabilizer, and USB stick (or whatever your machine uses) in the afternoon, to learn how to use the downloads from AccuQuilt.

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. |

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. August featured a "stained glass" table runner. September featured a turkey placemat. October featured An American In Paris table runner. This Saturday activity runs all day, starting at 9:30 a.m. |

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. |
|
UFO Club: Work on those UnFinished Objects. Actual progress. What could be better? In 2018, (like 2017) we are scheduled for the 3rd Saturday of each odd month (January, March, May, July, September, November). |
 |
Beginning Quilting: Learn the basics with an easy pattern. This Saturday class runs all day, starting at 9:30 a.m. |
|
Disappearing Nine Patch: Eyes are fooled by this clever Nine Patch technique. Example quilts on this website are this pink one, this one with fish, #6-1034, #6-1102, and #6-1204. This Saturday class runs all day, starting at 9:30 a.m. |
|
Stack n' Whack: With the fun Stack and Whack technique, every block is different. Example quilts on this website are #6-955, #6-912, #6-989, this red, black, and white one, this pink, blue, and yellow one, and , #6-1331. This class will be covered on two Saturdays. The second Saturday's date and activities will be determined by what works for the students in the class. The class runs all day, starting at 9:30 a.m. |
|
One Block Wonder: A One Block Wonder quilt is based on 6 layers of fabric with a 24 inch repeat. Quilt pieces are cut with a similar technique to those of a Stack and Whack quilt, but the blocks are sewn together differently. Example quilts on this website are #6-1052, #6-1309, and #6-1335. This class may be covered on two Saturdays. If needed, the second Saturday's date and activities will be determined by what works for the students in the class. The class runs all day, starting at 9:30 a.m. |

Needle Turn Applique: Needle turn applique is a hand applique technique. Learn needle turn applique with a small project that can be turned into a pillow, table center, or quilt section.

Monday Club projects: |
|
Block Of The Month Club: In 2010, we tackled "The Farmer's Wife", a spectacular quilt made with six inch blocks. See a better picture here. Block of the Month was first offered on Monday nights in 2010, was back by popular demand in 2012 - again in 2013 - and again in 2014. |
|
GoGo Club: Come in and play with the GO! Cutter and dies.  Quilts on this website made with the GO! Cutter are the Bugs quilt #6-1066, this geometric quilt #6-1067, and the rag quilt #6-1024. GoGo Club was a Monday night club in 2010. |
|
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. |
|
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. |
