Rows for the Row by Row Experience




The Row by Row Experience is a shop hop event with no fees, no passports and 1250 participating quilt stores across the US and Ontario! We have close to 80 shops within Ontario alone!

Simply visit any of the participating shops and receive a free pattern for a row in a quilt. Combine your rows in any way to create a unique quilt that represents the fun you had traveling throughout the summer. Travel with friends, discover new quilt shops and have fun collecting rows!

Our rows will be available July 1 - September 2 so drop by the store this summer!

Go here for more information: Row by Row Experience and stay tuned!
Check out the Ontario Row by Row Experience Facebook Page.
Our main row for the Ontario Row by Row Experience uses 1" Hexagon Papers and the English Paper Piecing Technique. The row is made with the official Row by Row Experience fabric collection from Timeless Treasures Fabrics, Inc.. Here's a project you can take with you as you travel on your shop hop!! 
Go here for a tutorial on: English Paper Piecing
This is our bonus row for you! Every quilt needs a good spacer row and this simple row is a perfect filler! If you'd rather piece by machine then make sure you pick this row up!

Coming this Week...

This week we have several classes running...there is still a little room left if you would like to join us please give us a call... 416 633-8800...

On Monday we have the Strawberry Social. At 12:30 we will be doing the four corner apron followed by a super simple table runner at 3:00! While Ann is teaching I will be serving strawberries to all comers!


On Tuesday we are starting a Sewing Machine Mastery class being taught by Hilma...if you have a machine that intimidates you or have always wanted to know how to use all the features of the machine this is the class for you! There is only room for one more person though!

Thursday night from 7 - 9 pm I will be teaching English Paper Piecing using plastic templates (Quilt Patis) - this is a great beginners technique or take along project for the cottage.


I am very busy cleaning house getting ready for our inventory counting at the end of the month. I have a huge clearance bin set up and am throwing all sorts of goodies into it... right now there are angelina fibers at 75% off, tonnes of panels for $2 and some clearance kits at 75% off. Things come and go quickly from the bin so be sure to look in to see if you can find any bargains.
5 packs of Olfa blades are on sale this week for $14.99 and all Minkee and velours are on 50% off as well!
Finally I think it is appropriate on Father's Day to thank my Dad for all the wonderful work he has done in the store. From building the fat quarter cart and ALL the shelves to doing the books and running around all over town doing errands he really has been the backbone of the store! Thanks Dad ... we love you!
Happy Father's Day to all!
