About Us

Val has been sewing for over 50 years. Starting out at the age of 6 or 7 with my first “real” sewing machine. By 16 years old, I was making most of my own clothes and doing hems and simple alterations for my mom’s friends. Schooling and on the job training brought Men’s Tailoring, Alterations and Bridal Design into my Life. Then in 1983, just moving to New Ulm, not knowing anyone, perused the Community Ed. schedule, took my first Quilting Class. After many years of sewing for other people, I opened the Quilt Shop in 2008.

“In your life, the people become like a patchwork quilt. Some leave with you a piece that is bigger than you wanted and others smaller than you thought you needed. Some are that annoying itchy square in the corner, and others that piece of worn flannel. You leave pieces with some and they leave their pieces with you. All the while each and every square makes up a part of what is you.
Anna M. Aquino
Talent and individual expression are not qualities that just other people possess. You have it too! All of you have a capacity for creativity in your quilting. Let yours happen and realize there are no boundaries to your unique expression.

“We stitch together quilts of meaning to keep us warm and safe, with whatever patches of beauty and utility we have on hand.”
