Each month you'll receive a "Clue" to the mystery and a demonstration on how the "Clue" is made. The parts of the quilt pattern will be all mixed up so you don't know what you're making! On Saturday, May 11, you'll receive the last "Clue" and see the Big Mystery Quilt Reveal!
There is no cost for the Mystery Quilt.
** If you are unable to attend, it's ok. Everyone will recieve the clue by email each month.
Beginning Saturday, February 24, and meets on the last Saturday of each month. Orfordville Lutheran Church.
Vintage and Antique quilts are so admired and collected. This club will re-make our own versions of them. We'll start with a 2 color quilt - very common at the turn of the 20th century. The history of the block and the quilt will be shared on each quilt selected. This will be a "Sew Day" format, as we each work on our own quilt in our own time.
There will be no fee for this club. A pattern will be shared.
Fabric Requirements: 4 5/8 yard white or ivory solid and 6 yards other solid color. Suggestions are red, dark green, dark blue or any other color of your choice. Finished Quilt Size 72 x 82.

This club will feature monthly blocks designed by our friend Heather Briggs of My Sew Quilty Life. Each block corresponds to a month of the year and features a cute spool!
We will have a sew day once each month to introduce the block and begin working on it - or catch up from the previous blocks. Each block uses the stitch and flip technique - no applique or foundation piecing.
Fee is $10.00 per month or $110.00 per year, with monthly discount offers and prizes included.
Each block can be made with scraps, and 4.25 yards of light colored background fabric - includes fabric for setting the quilt and a border.

The Chicks are longarm quilters that enjoy all aspects of quilting - both edge to edge and custom designs. Together they share many years of sewing and quilting experience, and have been longarm quilting professionally on a Gammill Statler Stitcher named Mrs. McDonald since 2013.
We offer longarm quilting services - both all over designs and custom quilting. We also quilt T Shirt Quilts. Prices vary as to the size of your quilt, the density of the design, and customization. Bring your quilt top in, we'll look it over and visit with you about it, then come up with a perfect quilt design to make your work of art an amazing finished quilt.
You can choose from many fabrics that blend perfectly with fabrics that you may already have to complete your project! Prints, Solids, Batiks, Panels, Fat Quarters, and Quilt Kits. There are seasonal collections by well known designers. New fabrics are arriving each month - so be sure to check in often!
Quilters either love binding a quilt, or don't love binding a quilt. If you don't love it, we can do it for you! We'll add a machine sewn or hand sewn binding, which ever you prefer.
The Pattern series, A-OK 5 Yard Quilts use 5 - 1 yard cuts of fabric. We've done the work for you, and have 5 co-ordinating fabrics put together. For $65.00, a pattern is included with 5 yards of fabric, and you get to choose it!
We've made all of the quilts in the series, and they are displayed throughout our shop. Each pattern is written simply and easy to follow, and sews up quickly. A generous throw size when finished, they are perfect for gifts!
Tops should be pressed and extra threads removed from the front and the back. We have many thread colors to use, and can help you choose the right color to showcase your piece work. There are so many patterns that are available to us, and we can talk with you to choose the perfect one if you like. If we don't have one that you're thinking of, we can most likely get it!
Backing fabrics should be at least 5 inches larger on all sides of the top to allow us to load the quilt sandwich on our machine. The back should have all seams pressed flat. If you don't yet have a backing, we can make one for you using a co-ordinating fabric that we sell in our shop.
You are most welcome to bring a batting of your choice for your quilt. We have Pellon 80% cotton / 20% poly batting for purchase also. We also are able to get specialty battings for you - wool, bamboo, silk, 100% poly, and others. Sometimes, a quilt warrants a specialty batting to get the look that is perfect for your finished quilt.
