Hearts are the Name of the Game in February
Take the Challenge:
How many different hearts can you make? How many ways can you show someone you care?
This month, we’ll celebrate those we love by making hearts and other motifs and using the colors of love in sewn and quilted items! We’ll use scraps, stash, and new-to-us fabric.
We are featuring hearts all month in the shop and on social. From the Lucky $7 selections to free and paid-for patterns, we’re about love, gratitude, appreciation, and friendship.

One of the ways we show love as a community is with Gratitude & Giving. Our quilt goal this year is 60+. That is a lot of quilts, but there are a lot of children and youth in need on the Northern Neck and we know you’re up to the challenge. We’re also making and donating placemats and our goal is 100.

YOU made Local Quilt Shop Day a huge success! Two quilters finished their Moda Love Charm Quilt tops and were rewarded with a free pack of mini-charms.
Others scored fab fabric at $10/yard and $5 and $10 patterns, books, and notions! All around a great day. We appreciate you.

Upcoming Events

Scrap-tastic Monday is February 20, 10a-Noon. The entry fee is $20 and for that you will receive $20 worth of scraps. We’ll have bags of pre-cuts (2.5” squares, 5” squares, 10” squares, 2.5” strips, 4.5” strips, perfect for double-strip rulers) and unprocessed scraps (totally unprocessed and bags of misc. strips for string quilts). Bags are $5, $10, and $20. And, for $10, you will receive one pound of fabric in unprocessed scraps. That’s about 3 yards of fabric! The first eight people through the door will receive a box of scraps in a fab box.
