We can't tell you how exciting these last few months have been for our shop!  It is extremely difficult as a Canadian shop to be selected for QUILT SAMPLER magazine and we are absolutely thrilled to have been chosen!

We've all been sitting on this secret since last February and we're so glad to be able to finally share the news!

We were worried that the secret would get out when the photography crew spent the day at our shop with all their equipment! Computers, cameras and lighting were spread  from one side of the store to the other!   The gals in Stash Pot Pie were busy upstairs sewing and laughing so much that it really did not phase them!! Even the Editor kept commenting on all the laughter. Can you guess who was in that class?

Quilt Sampler Magazine is published twice a year and has been profiling North America's quilt shops for the past 13 years.

Quilt shops submit a detailed application of their history, activities, promotions, teaching schedules, design philosophies and a mission statement. A panel of quilt experts led by Jennifer Keltner, group editor of American Patchwork & Quilting magazine, narrows down the applications to 10 featured shops for each issue. The names of the selected shops are kept a secret and unveiled at either the spring or the fall International Quilt Market.

A profile of our shop along with photos will appear in the upcoming fall issue. It will be available on newsstands, September 7, 2010 and in our shop in late August.

Sherri Hisey from Bordercreek Station came through with an excellent design for our original quilt.  We sewed madly one weekend  and shipped it off to Iowa to be photographed and pattern tested.  We hope to have our quilt, Oakridges Towne Square  back in August and we will be taking pre-orders  for your own quilt kit. At present we have a large photograph for you to see in the shop and the one at the top of this page!  We also wish to do pre-orders of the Quilt Sampler Magazine, so please place yours now!

The Quilt Sampler Magazine is a very successful recognized magazine and out of print issues are collector's items. Our shop will have a limited number of magazines to sell, so stop by and reserve your copy today!

Come celebrate with us!!
