Welcome to our shop!
Seams Like Home has been inspiring the creative community since 2002.
We have been in a few locations throughout Anchorage from 76th Ave to University Center to our final home here on 88th Ave and Toloff. Each location gave us opportunities and experience that allowed us to become your quilting destination of choice.
COVID-19 UPDATE: We have in-store shopping appointments available! Sign up on our web store.
You may email us at info@akseams.com if you have any questions! Thank you for shopping local!
Want to help make masks? Check out these options:
Mask with interfacing & pocket
Basic mask with elastic
Basic mask with ties
We have a collection box out in front of our store if you would like to drop them off.
MASK DONATIONS NOTE: We were previously working with Alaska Mask Makers to distribute masks, however, it was brought to our attention that the group in its original form no longer exists. In an effort to make sure masks get to as many people that need them, we will distribute them to various groups throughout the state. If you want to donate masks to specific groups, we encourage you to donate directly to those people.
We do our best to get masks out as we can, however, we are not in the business of distributing masks, so will do our best to work with what groups we can. If your group has a need or knows a business/group/community that needs masks please email us at info@akseams.com.
For those that have donated funds to help the mask making efforts, thank you so much! So many masks have been made with your generous donations. The remaining funds in the donation will be distributed to local mask making groups in order to further their efforts. As soon as we have a list of groups and the amounts of the balance they received, we will update this note.
Thank you again to our community for helping keep everyone safe and supplied with masks!

July 2020 Strip Club
July 2020 Cause - Change the world through Kindness and Knowledge!
30 Days of Kindness Project AND Social & Racial Justice Read-a-thon!
PEP Talk - 30 Day Acts of Kindness - let's make an effort to all work toward practicing kindness and see how the world changes!
READ-A-THON:
Social & Racial Justice Educational Reads - this list is just a start on what you'll find out in the world to read and educate ourselves. This is a list I have put together with the help of friends and family through social media and conversation. We must educate ourselves in order to be better and do better!
Below are a few that I have read, some are still on my "to-read" list, but I want to share them with you. I have many more than what I have listed here, and I will include the link to the list Barnes & Noble has, which is of course, much more exhaustive than mine! Some of these are Fiction, some Non-Fiction and I've read a few Biographies, which have been very interesting. I hope that you can read a few (or all) of these, or even listen to them on Audible or other audio book system, as some are quite powerful to listen to as well.
