Dear Friends,

After much soul-searching, we have made the decision to close The Quilt Cottage. While this decision has not been an easy one, it’s what’s right for us at this stage in our lives. We know that you will understand and support us. We have seen many changes in our little shop over the past 9 years, and more growth than we had ever imagined. This has all happened through your continued support of our shop and us. We have accomplished so much, but most of all, we have met all of you.

The very best part of this business has been the genuine friends we have made. We have learned so much from all of you….and not always quilt-related! The ability that quilting has to bring all of us together, regardless of the lives we lead, is still something that amazes us. We have been blessed to run a shop that not only can be good for business, but for the soul as well.

During the closing process, starting September 7th, we will continue to markdown all merchandise. We encourage you to stop in early, while the selection is best. We also want to see all of you! For those of you who participate in the “Saturday Sampler”, we will explain how you can get all the blocks at our September 10th and 11th meetings.

We thank you for your friendship, concern and support that you have always given us. We will truly miss you all.

Barb and Shelley
