Leave it to Texas to take a popular hobby and make it Texas Sized!
International cruises? Lasers? Year round retreats? Believe it or not today we’re taking about quilting in Quitman

I know this special place very well 👏❤️❤️ I was the 2nd employee Deb hired in 1996.. I retired after 14 years there 😀❤️
Thank you for the best gift idea for my Mom from her grandkids - road trip!
I’ve never heard about this place in Texas. I live in Missouri and about 6 hours north of where I live is a town, Hamilton, that has become known as the quilting capital. It is called Missouri Star Quilt Company. What started out as kids buying their mom a longarm quilter so that she can supplement the income, in a slow town, has now become multiple fabric stores, retreat centers, Airbnb’s, and I think I recently heard there was a shop dedicated to the husbands to sit and relax while their wives spend hours, days shopping everything quilting. These locations make great road trips for us quilty friends.
Shoutout to Stitchin’ Heaven for those jelly roll deals 😆
My mom lives 30 min away. Get to visit it several times a year-so worth it.
How did I not know about this paradise? 😂 and its only 3.5 hrs away! Thank you for helping a fellow Texan out!
Deb never messed around!! Loved the original store, but this is Wonderland!!👍🏻🩷👍🏻
Wow so cool! If you have the chance drive up to Missouri Star in Missouri too.
Fun! Road trip!
I can’t believe you came to my hometown!
No way I live 20 minutes away from there!!! Omg I’m going!!!!!
Omg. I would think I’d died and gone to heaven!!! Thx for sending along. Didn’t know about it!
Love Stitchin Heaven. And I don't know the workers keep from getting lost. That place is huge. I've been on the tour
My experience was they have a nice selection of fabrics and sample quilts but the staff on the day i visited were uniformed and generally unhelpful. Reminded me of a shop in a tourist area where there are always new customers regardless of service. I purchased NOTHING if that gives you any idea of how frustrated I was. Go @aroundtheblockquiltshop.
When I first started watching this, I thought “that is nothing compared to an entire town converted to a quilting center like Hamilton, Missouri and Missouri Star Quilting Company”. But, after watching the rest of the video, I think this place just might be giving MSQC a run for the money 😂 Wow 🤯 that is awesome 👏
