Happy Labor Day! 🇺🇸

Our warehouse is closed today so our team can take a little time to relax, celebrate, and enjoy the holiday with their families. We will be back to normal hours tomorrow.

In a rush to pick up a project? Don’t worry, our downtown shop IS open from 10 AM–3 PM today! If you’re out and about and looking to do a little shopping, stop by and say hi. We’d love to see you!

Today, we’re extra grateful for the hard work and dedication of our team and all of the workers who keep our communities going ❤️

Two patterns, Two different looks, One talented design house.

Juniper’s Song and Turning Point by Darty Kite are a perfect little introduction to their style. Both bring a fresh new perspective to English Paper Piecing, with unique shapes and layouts that make you really want to slow down and play around with your fabric choices. These designs remind us just how much personality you can create with a few carefully chosen shapes and colors.

Which one are you starting first? Juniper’s Song or Turning Point?

Party in the pick-up line! 🎉

Our Party Packs are perfect for keeping in your bag and taking wherever the day takes you. Each pack includes a mix of precut EPP shapes so you can experiment with layouts, play with your extra fabric scraps and whip up something quick whenever inspiration strikes.

Choose your party! Each pack includes a different selection of shapes in a selected size, guaranteed to fit together, but it’s up to you how they do. 😉 They’re also great if you’re not feeling quite confident with certain shapes and just want a little extra practice!

No pattern, no pressure, just a little creative play while you wait for that carpool line to get a move on 😮‍💨

Shop all the Party Packs through the link in our bio.

Are you stitching in the pick-up line with us? 😉

The school pick-up line just got a major upgrade 🚨

If you’re already spending 30 minutes waiting for the kids, why not spend some of that time doing what you love… stitching with us, of course!

EPP is perfect for those little spare pockets of time. Keep your project bag in the car, pull out a few pieces at a time and make some progress on whatever project you’ve been putting off!

Need some ideas? Here are three projects we’d happily let be our passenger princess:

Moravian Stars: These 3D stars come in multiple sizes making them great for hanging, displaying, or adding a little dimension to your home.

Bowls: Organize your car while you stitch! Available in multiple sizes, these are perfect for keeping whatever you need nice and tidy.

Diamond Dust Pillow: Maybe you’re trying to sneak in a quick nap in the pick-up line. We’ve got you covered! A Diamond Dust Pillow to the rescue.

Small, portable and easy to pick up and put down, these are the kind of projects that make a little “me time” possible even when you’re constantly on the go.

Shop these projects and more through the link in our bio.
