Special Tour de Quilt Hours: Tues, Wed, Thur, Fri, & Sat 9am - 7pm
Brought to you by the shops of the 2015 Tour de Quilt Rachel's Quilt Patch - Staunton, VA That Little Quilt Shop - Culpepper, VA Material Things - Chesterfield, VA Threads Run Thru It - Phenix, VA Lib's Place - Rice, VA
We are experienced quilters dedicated to offering personal service. Rachel’s Quilt Patch is “at home” in the 1860 railroad freight station in the historic Wharf District in downtown Staunton. In its heyday this place held boxes and boxes of railroad freight, moving it out and into warehouses across the street. In its new incarnation, quilters gather for classes and clubs, and yards of fabric are enthusiastically bought and sold. You are invited to come and share our place and our space, shop for all your quilting needs, ask for help, sit with Sweet Blue, our resident Siamese, and show us your latest projects—in process or finished. MicroSealQ™ is now available at Rachel's Quilt Patch Staunton, VA MicroSeal has been used in other industries for 30 years and is now coming to the quilting and handmade industries as MicroSealQ.
MicroSealQ is s a protectant that sinks into the fiber and fills in the gaps that we tear away as we process the fiber into our desired textile form. MicroSealQ imitates the natural protection of the original fiber. MSQ protects and strengthens the fabric at the fiber level.
DIRECTIONS
Protect your family heirlooms from the elements. As you come into Staunton, coming from the North, there will be a giant watering can on your left at the Railroad underpass (or giant flower pots at the underpass, if you are coming from the South) Follow Route 252 and Business Rt 11 South and continue to South Augusta Street. Turn left onto South Augusta Street. Augusta Street ends at Staunton Station and turns into Middlebrook Ave. as you turn right.
