Everyone at Peace by Piece Quilt and Gift Shop joins in to wish each of you a very happy and healthy New Year. 

We are soon to be celebrating 2 years in business, thanks to our loyal customers.  Two years ago, the "shop" was a dream and a risk.  Would people accept our efforts to provide the very best products and services and allow us to share our love of quilting with them?  We didn't know, but Debbie was determined to "give it a try."  Our customers responded again and again with repeated visits, praise, and sharing their successes with all of us.  Would more could we ask for? 
Our prayers have been answered and we are grateful for your friendship and your patronage.

New Year Resolutions

1.  To give our customers the very best fabric and supplies for the best price.
2. To "be there" for everyone that needs a hand with ideas, sewing help, fabric selection,
AND to enjoy the fruits of their labors (the fun part).
3. To provide classes and a place to learn to all of our customers and friends.
4.  To continue the display of samples for your viewing and consideration.
5. To help you to be the best that you can be by helping in any way that we can.
6. To ask for and incorporate your suggestions and ideas, to make this "your shop."

We LOVE our customers and thank you sincerely for your patronage.

New Fabric MODA FIG TREE GYPSY ROSE by Fig Tree Quilts for Moda

Classic roses and a hint of art nouveau saturate every inch of this “Fresh Vintage” classic. In colors like apricot, lilac, cream and copper this collection has all the makings of a relaxing Sunday afternoon."
