Thank you to everyone that made our Grand Opening Celebration a HUGE success!
Our recent grand opening was a day filled with genuine warmth and joy, as we welcomed so many of our quilting friends into our new space. Seeing the shop come to life with many familiar faces, and the buzz of new connections being made, was deeply touching. The laughter, the stories of projects past and plans for future creations, and the supportive nods of understanding about this art that we so love—it all created an atmosphere of family and friendship. Each person who walked through the doors wasn’t just a guest but a cherished member of our community, contributing to a day we will remember with fondness for many years to come. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for making our grand opening truly grand ❤️

What an exciting time for you. Congratulations on the new store and new focus on more fabric. Wish I was closer so that I could drop in. Have a fun time, Y’all.
Congratulations! Enjoy your videos, have purchased thread and fabric from your shop. Just wish I could do it in person. Maybe someday on my travels.
Just this morning I suggested to my husband that a Quilted Joy gift certificate would be a perfect birthday idea! Congratulations on your new endeavor!!
Congratulations Joy on your new store. The last time I visited my sister we were able to visit your old site. Looking forward to visiting this one!
We are planning a trip next spring. Can’t wait to see your new store and meet you. You have been awesome in my purchase of IQ and you gave me such great support. Thank you for all you do.
Congratulations Angela and the whole QJ team! Wishing I had the space for a longarm (a girl can dream) but I did get a new computerized sewing machine (never had one of those before!) from my wonderful hubby last month. We’re in Ohio so I’m hoping to get down there to see your new store.
Congratulations Angela!
I’ve been a huge fan of yours ever since I took a class from you in Springfield IL. You have a way of teaching free motion quilting that makes great results achievable.
Wish I could be there today to celebrate with you. We’ll meet one of these days I’m sure, but in the meantime, Congrats on the new digs. Put yourself down for a good hot soak tonight! I’m betting you’re
going to need it after the flurry of the past few weeks.
Congratulations!
I was so disappointed that I wasn’t going to get to see the livestream or attend the grand opening BUT….I got covid and had to stay home so I got to watch both livestreams! Congratulations! The new space is gorgeous and I can’t wait to come and visit soon!!
Hello from CT. So excited for everyone and I hope to visit the store soon.
Been watching your Grand Opening today. Congratulations! I am excited to one day make a road trip from Minnesota to Kentucky to see your shop in person. I have an APQS with IQ. I buy my thread and bobbins from you. You give such great service.
I just want to come and buy all the pretty threads in person!!! Congratulations!!!
So exciting!
Big Congratulations on your New Journey! Store looks fabulous! Wish I could be there in person. Thanks for Always sharing your inspiring projects. ❤️✂️
So excited for a fellow longarmer! Congratulations!
Wish I lived closer to help celebrate!
Congratulations in your beautiful new store. I’m only 2-1/2 hours north of you (just north of Indianapolis). I really hope to visit soon.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! It’s looks like y’all had SEW much fun! I’m about 3.5 hours away and I can’t wait to come visit to see your amazing shop & check out the APQS machines! I’ve totally decided that as soon as I’m able to afford (& can find the space) I really want an APQS… They appear to be the best machines in the market. I’m so happy for you, keep up the great work.
