Dear Quilting Friends,
It sure is nice once again to not have to step into my boots, put on my down coat and wrap my neck with a long scarf before stepping outside my front door early in the morning. We feel truly blessed to live in an area with gorgeous sunrises, sunsets, and blue skies most of the spring and summer. And, to think I initially resisted the idea of moving from Virginia to Utah! Although there are trade offs (like really dry skin because of this arid, desert-like region), I have grown to appreciate the unique beauty of the area. Wherever you are I hope you find your homeland just as breathtaking as I do mine.
Things are literally humming along at the shop. My Millie longarm machine has been working hard these past couple months. It’s always my intention to make the fabric design and piecing be the focal point of any quilter’s efforts. Quilting patterns and thread color are carefully selected to make your hard work be the star of the show.
There have been a few times, here and there, where I’ve had to work on inventory or something else, but gorgeous quilts are coming off the frame almost every day. The best part is when the customer comes to pick up the quilt and just falls in love with the result! That just makes my efforts that much more satisfying.
Kami has been working hard to put together a few new kits. Our aim is to make quilting a fun experience for anyone of any skill level. We recently began offering grab-n-go pillowcase kits. These are precut lengths of fabric for the body, cuff and trim wrapped up with a set of instructions. They’ll make great projects for a beginning quilter/sewer or future stocking stuffers (if you’re thinking that far ahead).
Another grab-n-go item is the new Riley Blake Kisses quilt pattern/kit using various solids we took from in-store inventory. It’s a great quilt design that incorporates a stunning collection of color and goes together super easy. We hope you'll take a peek at these new items, and maybe take one, or a few home with you.
Lately we’ve had a significant number of people come into the shop and make nearly identical comments about how they feel whenever they come inside. They say it’s light, bright and brings a sense of peace and/or joy to their hearts. All I can say is, “Good! It’s working!”
When we began remodeling the building, I could “see” the finished outcome with lots of good lighting and soothing colors on the walls and on the shelves. But most of all our intention focused on the atmosphere of how you feel when you walk through the front door (or even if you’re shopping online). We hope you feel welcome and at home anytime you’re here. Because you are.
As always, we hope you’re healthy, happy, and finding joy in each 1/4” seam.
Happy Quilting!
~ Beth and Kami
