SHOP HOP 2016

As you know, we’re approaching that time of year for Shop Hop.  Fabrics Galore is working hard to get our quilt ready.  You’ll start to see details in our news emails going forward.  Can you believe we’re only one week away from March?   Wow!  Time flies.   I for one, will be happy to get into the spring season to get all this bone chilling weather behind me.   Brrrr.

Fabrics, Quilting Supplies, Crafting Supplies online

Its a bit tedious as we await more vendors to jump on the bandwagon of delivering digital images with their data on merchandise, fabrics, supplies, booklets and patterns that we’re adding to our online store.  Please bear with us as time will be one of the primary factors in streamlining our new, very modern shopping cart.   So if you visit our shopping cart to order fabrics or supplies, please accept our sincere apologies for the lack of photos on many of the items.   But do take a look at our online store when you get a chance so you can begin to get a feel for the offerings and the potential of shopping conveniently from your home or office computer.   SHOP ONLINE STARTING HERE

Stay tuned for more classes, news and events as we progress into 2016!

Cheers!

Learn to quilt your own quilts.

In the class you will learn how to load your quilt and the basics of using the machine, such as bringing up the thread from the bottom, starting and ending. We will cover basic free motion quilting such as all-over loops, swirls, loops and stars, etc. We will also cover using an all-over pantograph pattern— how to set it up and how to roll your quilt. You will use a laser light on the machine to follow the pantograph pattern.

You will need to bring your lunch or snack. Our lunch break will be 30 minutes long. We have a full refrigerator and small microwave.

February is here and so are lots of new classes!

February is here and so are lots of new classes!

Dearest Quilting Friends,

On behalf of Fabrics Galore and Quilting Store, we sincerely apologize for the minimal communication through our blog as we ventured into 2016.   With such a huge workload behind us in the transition to a new website platform,  point of sale system and the addition of online shopping, we’ve still got lots of refining to do to bring everything up to snuff.   Add to that some very brutal weather conditions in January that closed down North Georgia and many other areas of the USA, we’re paddling like crazy to make sure Fabrics Galore & Quilting Store kicks off the New Year with colorful new fabrics, notions and supplies, and also some fun new classes.
