During July and August the shop will be closed on Saturdays.

Knotty Girls meet July 9, 9:30-11:30. Bring along your show and tell. Lots of ideas and inspiration available! Come and join this group!

Wool Applique: July 16, 10-12. Come and see the wonderful wool stitching projects that you can do. A fun morning of stitching!

Scrap Quilting July 30, 9:30-1:30. Tracy has a new pattern that uses 10 inch squares. (Perfect for the layer cake you bought long ago!!)

Happy quilting & a happy summer!🌸🌻

How did June get here already?!

News flash! 3000+ quilt blocks donated!!!!
Thanks to all who donated orphan blocks for the quilts for survivors, an amazing accomplishment! These blocks will be sewn into quilts for survivors of residential schools.

Sixteen “smile” quilts were donated this month to a local shelter for the residents. Thanks to the ladies who donate their time to help make these quilts. We hope they bring a smile to the faces of the recipients. We donated quilts to Youville Centre for the girls who will be graduating from the program this June.
