After 10 years at the Hungerford, Quilting with Margaret has moved to the Charlotte neighborhood at 100 Boxart St., Studio #265. The boxes are nearly unpacked, the new and larger studio shop is all set up, so it is time for a Grand Re-Opening!

See all of the new fabrics and patterns at the new Quilting with Margaret, Studio #265 on Friday, May 19 and Saturday, May 20, 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. for the Grand Re-Opening. There will be refreshments and door prizes. Come check out my new location!

Find the new studio off of Lake Avenue on Boxart Street, the road leading to Turning Point Park. Follow Boxart Street and go straight at the stop sign at the bottom of the hill (behind Charlotte Appliances), into the large parking lot at Boxart Business Park. Enter the building through the double glass doors and go up the steps to the second floor and turn left . Go through the open door leading into the large hallway and turn right. Quilting with Margaret is down the hall and just around the corner.

The studio is stocked with a huge selection of solid color fabrics from Paintbrush Studios and Art Gallery Fabrics. You will also find new print collections and precuts from Riley Blake Fabrics. And just in, the entire line of Eastlyn Souk, Exotic Splendor, Love Confessions and Finch & Fern all from Midwest Textiles. Also, brand new at the studio shop are Midwest Textiles Kwik Kits, which are ready-to-sew kits which include pre-cut fabric for an easy to sew quilt top, pattern, backing and binding fabric. In addition, you will find pre-cut fat quarter sets, 5” and10” square sets and jelly rolls which include the entire line of several Riley Blake and Midwest Textiles fabrics, like “Coffee Chalk,” “Mr. Rogers Neighborhood,” “Honey Bee, Saturday in Paris,” “She Who Sews,” “Vintage Deluxe,” “Market Fresh” and more. There are also coordinating by-the-yard fabrics for borders and backings.

Also just in are new $2 Rose Card patterns from Villa Rose Patterns and new modern patterns from Missouri Star Quilts. Plus you will find a large selection of modern quilt patterns from various other companies.

I also have a huge selection of oil cloth fabric by-the-yard in bright and colorful prints. Oil cloth is perfect for all of your summer decorating needs, like picnic tablecloths and deck pillows. I also have D.I.Y. kits of this easy-to-so fabric to make reversible placemats, tote bags, coin purses and mini notebook covers. Other craft fabrics available at the studio shop include chalkboard fabric and Kraft-tex (a leather-like paper fabric). Kits for D.I.Y. projects are also available for Kraft-tex wallets and ear bud cases, wine bags, embellished tea towels and cork fabric clutch purses.

Quilting with Margaret is the place to go to find modern quilt patterns and fabrics. I can’t wait for you to stop by my “happy place” and feel the creative vibes!
