SHOPPING LOCAL, SUPPORTING LOCAL
If there’s one constant in a quilter’s life, it’s fabric. Not only is collecting it fun, the act of quilting itself is therapeutic. While the world outside feels full of uncertainty and chaos, a quilter can retreat to their sewing room, put on a podcast, and take a reprieve (if only for an hour or two!). Cutting, arranging, and sewing together fabric brings a sense of calm that is incomparable to any other hobby. We feel that same sense of relief when in the shop and seeing what you are creating. Nothing makes us happier than talking fabric, sewing machines, threads, and notions – and we’re “sew” grateful to you for allowing us to continue to do so, even through these uncertain times.
Over the past two months we've been working on sourcing more of our inventory from Canadian distributors and suppliers. While not everything we stock is available from these Canadian sources, we've been doing our best to find any available substitutes of equal or superior quality to support Canadian businesses across Canada.
Thank you for supporting your local quilt shop, and for being a part of our community of local quilting enthusiasts (a dozen of whom you’ll find at Quilty Pleasures)!

Longtime customers of Quilty Pleasures have likely seen Cary Jensen around the shop over the years. Val's husband, and father to Sam and Amy, was always quick with a smile and loved a good chat - whether it was about quilting, the CBC, or goings-on in Orleans. His sense of humour and charm were ever-present, even when life was most difficult. He was our greatest supporter, website-editor extraordinaire, and confidante (as well as the genius behind our shop's name!) and we're going to miss him more than words can say after his sudden passing at the end of April.
We've been overwhelmed by the kindness of everyone who has written, called, or come in with a hug - thank you! We're so grateful for this wonderful community we're lucky enough to be a part of.
