MOVE UPDATE
On Monday November 11th, we'll be in our new store, open and ready for your business! All classes on and after November 11th will be in our new store on 2375 East 63rd Avenue.

Our Inventory Reduction Sale is still on and getting better all the time! New fabrics are still being added and with 40% off, 50% if you finish the bolt, we're clearing out our old inventory and it benefits you!

If you've been in the store this week, you may have noticed we've been moving some things around again! Our front counter is already at our new store so we've borrowed a cutting table for a front counter.
