Appointments are not required. For groups of three or more, a heads-up the day before would be great. MASKS are required, social distancing highly recommended, hand sanitizing upon entering the store is required. Please don't come to the store if you have any signs of illness, fever, shortness of breath, cough, etc., or if you think you have been exposed to the virus. * * * * * 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. August's monthly special is 20% off regularly priced fabrics, precuts, kits not already on sale, and notions over $10.00. AccuQuilt Specials - $100.00 manufacturer's mail-in rebate on the GO! Big and the Ready, Set, GO! Check with me for other specials. Some AccuQuilt specials are offered on a weekly basis. For new AccuQuilt specials, you can check the AccuQuilt web site; I honor the specials they list: accuquilt.com/special-offers.html AccuQuilt specials change frequently. You are welcome to 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: Much of my fabric is now on line. Click the Catalog link at the top of any page on this website to see fabrics, kits, quilts, and other goodies. And check out our Facebook page, as well as the website, for new fabrics and other items. To order fabrics from the web site, you do need to call the store (406-632-4861) . The great thing about calling, is that I can send you close up pictures of the fabrics you are interested in. It takes a bit longer that just being able to place an order on line, but you do get knowledgable personal service as you would with a store visit. An email requesting close up photos with a follow-up phone call will also work. We are starting to get new fabrics in - some orders were on hold from May and June. We just received a new line of linen-looking blenders from Hoffman. We received some cute dog prints from Clothworks and Henry Glass, and a novelty live from Henry Glass called Be Wild. We are expecting Southern Belle in white and cream, also a Hoffman order including the two Dream Big 60 wide Dahlia prints. We do now have some 1/8 inch black elastic, 1/4 inch white elastic, and non woven interfacing for masks. Classes and Events: We still do not have classes scheduled. We are hoping for our UFO meeting this month. It will depend on our status with active cases. The same applies to our Imagine That group scheduled to meet in September. At this point I think our Imagine That Group will be asked to send in a picture of their finished project, and I will pick an unbiased individual to select the winners. If you think of any classes you might be interested in taking, please make suggestions. Any questions, please give me a call. - Diana |

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.

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. |
