Make a winter themed gift (from fabrics in your stash) and come to the Holiday Party prepared to have fun! We’ll gather in groups and while a story is being read we will pass our treasures either left or right when we hear the words “Left” or “Right”. When the story ends, we will have a wonderful gift to take home and enjoy!

Batting Lecture Sherry Mark and hubby

Sherry Mark – Loft Supply

Lecture: All About Batting

Owner Sherry Mark strongly believes that batting is an important, yet often overlooked and undervalued, component of your quilting project. After all, your batting gives your quilt its personality. It determines the way a quilt looks and feels, its weight, warmth and thickness, and perhaps most importantly, its longevity. At Loft Supply, we value the art of quilting, and want to do our part to ensure that your finished product looks and feels as special as the effort you put into your beautiful creation.
