Did You Know??

Did you know that there are a variety of services available to you at My Sisters Quilts?? 
For example, though the store itself does not house a long arm quilter, there are THREE fabulous ladies that have regular hours at the shop so you can drop off you quilt tops to be quilted!

Nifty right?

On Thursday nights from 5:00-7:00pm you can drop off your quilt and choose a design for it to be quilted with Paula Everill. She has many designs for you to choose from (over 1000!) starting at $.015 per square inch and up. Look at some examples of her work HERE.

On Friday mornings from 11:00-12:30 Natalie Thompson of Nestled Long Arm Quilting Company is at My Sisters Quilts for drop off and consultations. Natalie specializes in edge to edge quilting and her designs start at just $.01 per square inch. She also has a fast turnaround, so if you are in a time crunch, she is your gal!

Then on Saturdays from 10:00-12:00 Dona Marie will be at the shop for drop offs. She also has a quick turn around (about one week), 1000s of designs starting at $.01 per square inch, and she also does custom work. Visit her website HERE to view her FAQ and gallery of work. 

You can also call the shop and ask for their contact info and call them for a private consultation :) 

So now that you know, there is no excuse to have a pile of un-quilted quilt tops! Bring them in and one of these three fine ladies will help you make that quilt a family treasure!

It's that time again. Time for the open house and class registration and My Sister's Quilts!! 



This Thursday, Friday and Saturday (12th -14th) come on in to the store and check out the samples from all the classes and sign up to learn new skills taught by one of the many great teachers at My Sister's Quilts. 

I don't know about you, but I have been anxiously awaiting the class list to see what new fun techniques I can add to my skill set.  

Have you seen the class list??? Its HUGE!!! There are so many great classes and instructors this quarter that I can't think of one that I don't want to take. Batiks, basics, purses, applique, binding, Hawaiian quilting, lone star, aprons, a mystery quilt and more. Way too many to spotlight here, so hop on over to the website and check out all the class descriptions. There is surly something there to suit your fancy, if not four or five or six classes you are going to want to sign up for.
