Welcome to 2016!

Happy New Year, everyone! Welcome to 2016!

To start off 2016, I wanted to share a video to advertise my small store! For those of you who don't know, I have been operating this business since 2009. I teach 3-4 group sewing classes a week, travel to quilting guilds and give presentations, sell my items in craft shows and operate a small gift store in downtown Whitby, ON.
All of the products that I sell are handmade by local crafters who I have met through various craft show events.
On top of all things "small business" I also work full time, so I don't often have opportunities to share all aspects of my life with you!

If you are interested in having a sneak-peak to my store and the variety of products made by some talented people, please check out this video

One of the things I would like to accomplish this year, is to be more consistent with the posting of my YouTube videos. So please stay tuned for a Valentine's themed video & many more to come in 2016. As well, don't forget to check out the Winter issue of Quilter's Connection magazine to find my pattern for a patchwork sleeping bag!

In the meantime, please feel free to check out my previous tutorials & product reviews!

I'm so excited for 2016!

Re-launching Quilter's Workshop!

Hi Everyone!

It has been quite a while since I shared a post!

Some of you may already be aware, but I have re-launched my business so that it now includes a small-scale gift shop!
All of the products that I have on display in my store are all handmade by local artisans.

Today, I will be introducing "Paper Kreations by Jackie"




Jackie sells a variety of homemade cards, ready-made scrapbook albums and other fun paper crafts. You can now find a variety of her products inside Quilter's Workshop! (Now located at 152 Brock St. N. downtown Whitby)

To view her other items, or to place a custom order, please visit her Facebook page by clicking HERE

I am so so honoured to have a lovely variety of incoming products from local crafters who I have come to know personally, by participating in craft show events, over the past several years. Shopping local and supporting small businesses is very important to me, and I hope that I can provide a perfect selection of gift items leading up to the holidays.

Over the next several weeks I will be posting photos of what products are available! Stay tuned!
Current "store hours" include Friday evenings from 4pm-7pm, Saturdays from 9am-5pm, or by appointment.



For anyone who has not yet registered for fall classes, I only have space available in my 9-11AM (Saturday) class! If you are interested in registering, please send an E-mail to quilters.workshop@gmail.com

Excited for Fall & New Beginnings!

Hi Everyone!

I am pleased to announce that on Saturday September 5th 2015, I will be hosting my fall open house, from 10AM-2PM.

As usual, this day will provide students with an opportunity to register for fall classes, choose projects, etc.
(Fall classes will officially begin on Saturday September 12th 2015)

However, I am super excited to share with all of you, that beginning on September 5th, you will be able to shop at Quilter's Workshop, and find a variety of products handmade by local artists who I know personally from my past participation in craft show events.

I have dreamed and wished for a long time, that I will one day have a store-front. This opportunity is the first step of many that I plan to take, to someday develop my business to be able to support myself entirely. I have been working very hard to develop my business over the past six and a half years and am absolutely thrilled to be able to display the works of local crafters and continue to teach my classes.
I am a firm believer in supporting small businesses and shopping local. Leading up to the holidays, Quilter's Workshop will be the perfect location to pick up a variety of gift items, each unique and made with love.

Below is a small ad that I have been sharing with my clients and current students, regarding all the information for the grand opening day.



Over the next couple of weeks I will be posting updates and photos of products that will be available at Quilter's Workshop. Stay tuned!

I hope that everyone enjoys the remainder of summer and I am so excited to re-launch my business for all of you this fall.

Love, Tiffany
