The top is done. Now it needs a back!

Several new widebacks arrived today, and the timing is pretty good for all those fall quilts coming together.

Bring your quilt top in and let's find the one that works.
Or, if you already know what you need, our widebacks are available on our website too!

We just love watching a customer’s vision come to life! 🥰 This beautiful quilt started right here in the shop when our customer picked out her fabric. She took it home, created this gorgeous quilt top, and then brought it back to us to add the finishing touch with our quilting.

We think the finished quilt turned out absolutely beautiful! 💕

Thank you for choosing us to be a part of your quilting journey. It’s always so special to see our fabric become something beautiful and meaningful!

What are you working on next? 👀🪡
