New block party beginning Nov. 3

We will be starting our new block party on November 3.  We would love to have you join in the fun!


Becky has designed a wonderful commemorative quilt to celebrate family.  Here is a photo of the quilt in progress.

We have chosen some of our favorite blocks from past quilts to create the sampler blocks that will border each side of the quilt.  Of, course the date can be changed to suit your situation.  What a wonderful way to celebrate a wedding or anniversary of a loved one.

We plan to complete the quilt in 15 sessions.  The $30.00 sign up fee will include the first session.  The remaining 14 sessions will be just $7.50 per session.

Give us a call at 81-465-9133 to reserve your spot.
