July 2026


Happy July!  The month where we celebrate our country and our freedom!  This is a very special one, as we celebrate 250 years of freedom!  How blessed we are!  I've had fun making patriotic quilts in preparation, like the one above.  While it may be too late to get yours done by the 4th, it's not too late to celebrate our country's anniversary by making a patriotic quilt...I think it's ok to celebrate all year!  We will be closed on Saturday, July 4th, in order for all of our staff to enjoy the celebrations.  I'd like to invite you all to a free concert out at Camp Utmost at 4:30pm on the 4th.  The performance will be by The Kramers who have been on the Gospel Music Top Ten List many times!  Check them out https://www.thekramersmusic.com/

We are also looking forward to hosting our very own mini quilt show.  As you know, Teresa and her students all did Jen Kingwell's "Wanderer's Wife" quilt last year in different fabrics.  We will be displaying these "same pattern but very different" quilts in our store Wednesday, July 15th through Tuesday, July 21st, so be sure to stop in during that week!

Join us for a fun day of sewing and eating lunch with your friends!  Bring any project you want to work on.  Lunch will be served around noon.  Please let us know by Wednesday (the day before) if you will be coming, so that we can be sure to have enough food.
The fee is $5 (please bring cash, as this goes to the maker of the food and not to DCQ).

We still have a few kits, and I'm still availabe for anyone interested in making this BOM "Aspiring Stars" by Michelle Renee Hiatt & Lynn Wheatley.  It uses the following Studio 180 tools:

Tucker Trimmer I (III optional)

Wing Clipper I

Square Squared

V Block

Rapid Fire Lemoyne Star

The kit is $25/month for 12 months.  You can get it monthly or just buy the whole kit.  You also do not have to do it as a class, if you are already familiar with the Studio 180 tools.


We also have four kits left of this BOM: Lucky Stars.  It is $25/month for 9 months.  Buy it monthly or all at once.  The finished size is 72"x84".
