Local Talent

Three of the staff members are pattern designers-Lisa Stone (Quilt Bug Patterns), Lynn Wilder (Sew'n Wild Oaks), and Dee Christopher (DeeVine Quilts). Their patterns are featured in the shop, as well as patterns designed by Leslie and Melissa. Pop Art by Artichoke Collection is a simple quilt that provides quilters an opportunity to practice both piecing and appliqué.
