COVID-19 Update for December 9, 2020
As per the most recent update from the Jason Kenney and Dr. Deena Hinshaw on December 8th we are still allowed to be open for customers to shop in store. Our capacity for customers in store has been lowered to 15% which means we can have 4 individuals in the shop plus staff. Everyone entering the store to shop is required to fill out a track and trace form with name and phone number as per the owner’s request. We ask that everyone respect each other and maintain physical distancing guidelines. As mentioned, the maximum number of individuals is 4, at which time the door will be locked until someone leaves. Children, spouses or friends accompanying shoppers will count towards our individual person limit in the shop so please leave them at home or have them wait in the car for you if feasible. We do not have a time limit on shopping nor do we require appointments at this time.
We have made some changes regarding Curbside Pick Up, Quilt Pick Ups and Quilt Drop Offs.
For any of these services please go to the door closer to ATB (further west). The door will be unlocked, please step inside and ring the doorbell. One of our staff members will come help you and get you in and out quickly without filling out any paperwork. If you also want to shop, please go to the regular door and proceed as normal.
Our current store hours are Tuesday through Friday from 10:00am – 5:00pm and Saturday from 10:00am - 4:00pm. We are available Thursday evenings between 5:00pm and 7:00pm by appointment for those who can’t make it in during regular shop hours. Please call 587-274-2630 to book an appointment.
Please note that we will be closing at 3pm on December 24th and will remain closed until Tuesday January 5th.

LONGARM QUILTING
Longarm quilting continues. At the present time, this service is being provided as drop-off or pick-up only. Customers with quilts to drop off do not need to enter the store (see above). We have an intake form available online to print off for inclusion with your quilt. When quilts are dropped off, they go into temporary quarantine before the intake process is completed. When your quilt is ready to go on the long arm machine one of the long arm team will give you a call to discuss the intake form, including thread colour, quilt design and answer any questions you may have. If you have questions about longarm quilting, call the longarm team at 780-616-8224 during regular hours of operation.
PAYMENT OPTIONS
We accept Visa, MasterCard, debit, cash or e-transfer to quincysquilting@shaw.ca.
For those of you that aren't able to visit us at our actual storefront, we want to introduce you to our Greeters. We know how popular they are whenever people come to visit and we hear how disappointed they are when there are no dogs on site. As other members of our team have added puppies to their families they too have become shop greeters.
Macadamia (aka Macki) is the original greeter and we happily welcome her in the shop full time. She is a year and a half old and has been a constant fixture at the store since the day she came home. She loves to welcome guests, lick toes in the summer time and always has a colourful bandana on to showcase some of our many fabrics available for sale.
Harley Quin is our back up Greeter. She works part time and gets along very well with others and adores Macki. Harley is just over 3 months old and is doing quite well at learning her role in the shop. She is a traditional black and tan with markings similar to a doberman or rottweiler although much smaller in size but same big girl attitude.
The latest addition to round out our team of Greeters is Oakley. She is a black and tan dapple with a bit of long hair thrown in just to up the cuteness factor. She is 8 weeks old and has a full family of sisters at home to welcome her after a long day at work. Piper, Quincy and Elphaba keep her busy when not at the shop.
Keep On Quilting!
