Because the COVID-19 cases in the state are still a danger, we will continue to be open by appointment only, for everyone's safety. Masks are mandatory, as well as hand sanitizing when you come in the door. Masks must cover nose and mouth at all times. If this is difficult for you, please shop online. Also, if you have been exposed, are not feeling well, or are quarantining, please shop online. Mid March should see us open without appointments; masks, however, will still be required. SPECIALS: As we appreciate shopping online, we will continue the good SALE: 30% off on... regularly priced fabrics, sewing notions over $10.00, kits not already on sale, and precuts. Minimum 1 yard cuts; 4 or more fat quarters qualify for 30% off. Because of this large of a discount, free shipping will not apply, unless you purchase $100.00 in full priced items. (quilts, gift items, vendor items, etc.) Of course, picking up your order at our curbside is always free. AccuQuilt specials for the month of February, please check with me. $100.00 manufacturer's rebate on Go Big Electric cutter, Ready Set Go, or Go Fabric cutter purchased between January 26 and February 22. 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: New fabrics coming in February, including several 118 inch wide backings, in addition to new 108 wide backs. We do have 2021 calendars available. Mystery Mailing started in January. Mailing will include $60.00 worth of goodies. If mailed, the cost will be $45.00, or you may pick your bundle up at the store for $37.00. The mystery mailing will include fun stuff, and will change from month to month. Let me know if you would like to participate. It could be a fun project, could be a box of goodies, it could be anything, that's the fun part of mysteries. January's mystery mailing was a 5 yard quilt kit and pattern. Participants really liked it. Let me know if you are interested. CLASSES AND EVENTS: No classes at this time. It appears we *will* be able to hold our April Quilt Retreats. There will be some guidelines for these. Please let me know if you are interested. Tentative dates are April 15 - 18 and April 22 - 25. Someone asked me if we are going to be doing our Imagine That Club this year. What do those of you who participated before think? If there is enough interest we will do it again. So far, I have only heard from two people showing interest. LINKS: 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. 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. |

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. |
