Store procedure: Appointments are no longer required. We are updating our mask requirements: If you are fully vaccinated, you do not have to wear a mask. If not, a mask is still required, and must cover nose and mouth at all times. This will be on the honor system, and we respectfully ask that you comply for the safety of our other customers and our staff. If this is difficult for you, or if you have been exposed to Covid or are experiencing any signs of illness, please shop online. Thanks for your cooperation! If you know a group of more than 3 or 4 are coming, a heads-up a few days before is helpful, so that we can have two people working. * * * * * 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. Due to supply price increases, regularly priced fabric (minimum 1 yard cuts), kits not already on sale, sewing notions over $10.00, and precuts will be on sale at a discount of only 25% off during the month of June. We are continuing to receive notifications of increases in the cost of both goods and shipping costs from our fabric suppliers. Our sale discount may have to decrease again in the future. AccuQuilt Specials - please call to hear the current special. A new 4 inch Qube is now available. Setting triangle dies are now available for all sizes of the Qubes. 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. All mask panels are on sale for 1/2 price. Even though most of the mask requirements have been lifted, it seems that wearing masks during flu season will be a good idea. News: New fabrics have been arriving. We now have the full line of QT fabrics fusions. These are a fun swirly designs in lots of colors. What do you do when you can't decide on which colors to get? - you get the full line. We have a new shipment of cuddle remnants from Shannon, custom batiks from Hoffman, and are gradually getting in the Benartex wool tweed flannels. The web site should have almost all the new items shown very soon. Also, we have put additional fabrics in our sale area; plan a peek at the sale page. 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. My Mystery Mailing started in January. Each mailing includes $60.00 to 65.00 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 includes fun stuff, and the selection changes from month to month. It could be a fun project, could be a box of goodies, it could be anything; that's the fun part of mysteries. May's mailing was a quilt book, a roll of 2 & 1/2 inch strips, and a spool of thread. June's package will be shipped around the 10th - I am waiting for one item that goes in the mailing to arrive. Classes and Events: We had a great quilt retreat at the Barnsion in April. I love the new commercial kitchen Dave has provided; no carrying food upstairs and back down when the retreat is over. I am ready for the two October retreats (Oct7-10 and 14-17, the October 21-24 retreat has been cancelled.) If you are interested in participating, call me for availability. * No store classes are scheduled at this time. If you are interested in participating in a GO! Cutter Club, please call. 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. |
