Quilting Mayhem Turns 10!

From Mindy: Wow, 10 years of Quilting Mayhem! I'm overwhelmed as I look back on how far we've come since opening our doors May 1, 2015. What started as a small dream has grown into something beyond what I ever imagined, and it’s all thanks to you, our amazing community of Mayhem Makers. When we first opened on 1st Street, we were a cozy 3,000-square-foot shop with a modest fabric selection, one classroom, and a longarm rental station.

At the time, we had some fabric, only one classroom, and a longarm rental.  Fast forward to 2016 and we quickly began to grow. We added sewing and quilting machines to our arsenal with BERNINA and Handi Quilter dealerships. Our dreams of offering more for our

Why Shopping Small At Quilting Mayhem is a Big Deal for Quilting, Sewing, and Crafting Enthusiasts

We love to quilt, to sew, and to make things. Call it a cherished pastime, or an obsession depending on the day, but making mayhem is a have-to activity, our creative outlet, and an escape from the daily stresses of life. Since we think so much about what to make, you can bet we put thought into where we shop. While big box retailers may seem convenient, shopping small and supporting local businesses, such as Quilting Mayhem, is the way to go.

We have a blog!…..Again

Yes, I am back at it again. It's been a couple of years since I worked on the last Quilting Mayhem blog, and a lot has happened since then. If you haven't come to visit us in the last year and a half, we have moved off of First Street and up to a much larger facility on Second Street in downtown Snohomish. This gave us the chance to expand everything, along with adding a larger Machine Service Center and retreat rooms that we rent. In light of a lot of brick-and-mortar quilt shops closing
