Back to the Basics!

Do you have a list of goals for 2015?
Quilting techniques you need to try? W.I.Ps you need to get back to? Projects you need to finish?
Here are some staples that you need to meet your goals!

Thread 

We have many options for thread. We love Aurifil for piecing and machine quilting, King Tut for machine quilting, Gütermann for piecing and hand quilting, and Kimono Silk™ for hand appliqué and invisible machine appliqué.
Go here to check out all our: Thread 

Aurifil Thread



King Tut

Batting 

Warm & Natural - 100% Cotton Batting 




We love Warm & Natural Batting for Cotton Batting. The cotton fibers are punched with hundreds of needles through a thin base material to prevent tearing, shifting or migrating and the batting washes very well. We have it on the roll and in packages. You can get 4 different sizes - baby, twin, queen and king!

Needles & Pins

You can't do without them!
Our newest love is the Hiroshima Needles from Tulip but we also recommend Richard Hemming for handwork, Schmetz for your machine, and the very reliable Clover pins.
