Our new website is up!

Our new website is up and running! Not all of our products are on there yet, but they will be soon. The class schedule and the blog is also incorporated right into the site. That means that I will no longer be using this site to post news about the Shoppe. Visit the website (www.theoldeworldquiltshoppe.com) for everything related to the Shoppe from now on. Thank you so much to the very awesome and talented Jake Plains for designing and creating our new site. We love it!

Sunday Best

Jo Morton's new line, Sunday Best, has arrived! We are so excited about this collection. It is fifteen bolts of light fabrics that would be great for backgrounds. We've been low on these colors for awhile now, so they are a breath of fresh air! Here's a sample:

We've already cut fat quarters and fat quarter packs, so don't wait because these will go quick!

Until next time...

We're Still Here

As some of you may have noticed, our website has been down for over a week now. The previous “hosts” of our site have been unresponsive, so we are in the process of creating a whole new site. We hope this is completed in the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, if you have any questions about the Shoppe, including classes, please don’t hesitate to stop in, call or email. Check out this blog for the latest news. Thank you for your patience! We look forward to seeing you soon!!

Until next time...

Jo Morton's 'Prairie Flowers Encore' Block of the Month

Come join us for our newest BLOCK of the MONTH, Prairie Flowers Encore, by Jo Morton. This will be an 8 month program with monthly classes taught by AQG Hall of Famer, Sue Maitre. Sue will guide you through this project and teach you her award winning applique technique along the way.

This BOM is $21.95/month, which includes all fabrics needed (except backing) and the class fees. All classes will be held on the second Saturday of the month, and except for the first class, will be two hours long.

Until next time...

We're back!

 We've been gone for awhile, but we had a good reason...

Until next time...

Civil War Half Square Triangle Exchange

Be sure to join the Civil War Half Square Triangle Exchange!!

Do you love scrappy half square triangle designs? Come join the fun learning an easy way to make 28 half square triangles at once. The fun continues when you return your triangles to the Shoppe. Once you've sewn your 28 half square triangles, you will keep one, then bundle the remaining 27 and drop them off at or mail them to the Shoppe. You have until April to sew your desired number of half square triangles. For every bundle of 27 half square triangles you bring in, you will receive an equal number of assorted half square triangles - just perfect to execute the gorgeous designs featured in 'Friendship Triangles,' by Edyta Sitar.
 All roll-ups will feature Civil War reproduction fabrics so your triangles will coordinate fabulously! We will help you figure out how many roll-ups you need for your desired project(s).

You don't have to live in the valley to join the exchange! You can participate by mail. Small shipping fees will apply. We will have a Civil War Half Square Triangle Exchange LAUNCH PARTY on Saturday, February 18th. Come meet Alice and your fellow club members while enjoying snacks and refreshments, pick up your first set of roll-ups and learn the technique you will be using to make 28 half square triangles at once. 

Until next time...
