Piper's Quilts & Comforts


Just a little hello from us to you! We are Piper's Quilts & Comforts, located in the Sugarhouse neighborhood of Salt Lake. We are currently busily turning the shop from Winter to Spring! There are tons of new projects that will beam warmth into these still chilly days. All of the pictures shown here are new projects in the shop as well as classes. Our latest class schedule can be accessed here, on our blog. Our blog is www.pipersgirls.com and is full of inspiration as well as free patterns, tips and techniques and so much more.
We are so excited for this years shop hop! Besides all of the usual fun, we will be expecting 2 new little additions to the Piper's family, hopefully they decide to make their appearance just after the Shop Hop weekend. Our theme this year is Alice & Wonderland and we will be transforming the shop like you would not believe. Hopefully you will be our guest at our Mad Hatters Tea Party!
Please come and visit us online or at the shop anytime!
P.S. We are currently doing Free Demo's every Wednesday at 2:00 PM. Each week stop by after lunch and learn a new technique, last week we did how to cut bias binding and mitered corners. The weekly schedule is on our blog as well as our Facebook page.

News from Whimsy Cottage

After six years with 7' ceilings, narrow rooms, no storage, no office and no classroom, we've found new space within a mile of our current location! We feel like we're graduating and becoming an adult quilt shop. Our move-in date will be April 1, but already we're buzzing with ideas for classes and events! The Wasatch Front Shop Hop, June 15 - 18, will be our first and biggest event and we can't wait to test the new space.

If you receive our newsletter, we'll let you know when we'll be at our new address: 1875 E. Murray-Holladay Road. Or, you can go to www.whimsycottage.net and ask to be added to our email-only newsletter.
