Open by appointment!



We are currently open by appointment!  

Please use the booking tool on our home page to reserve a time for in-store shopping.  https://www.twothimbles.com/

We will expand the appointment offerings if needed, so please let us know if you have tried to book and no appointments were available!  We hope this method provides an opportunity for more vulnerable customers to feel confident in their shop experience while also limiting the exposure and responsibilities for our team as well.

We have implemented a few changes to our shop layout and operating practices to help maintain social distancing, upgraded sanitizing efforts and require that all customers wear facial coverings for the duration of their visit.  We appreciate everyone doing their part to take care of our community - we certainly don't want to backtrack on the progress we've made.

We appreciate your ongoing patronage and look forward to seeing you in the shop soon!

We are available Tuesday through Saturday from 10am - 4pm

We have some additional operating logistics to resolve to meet Safe Start retail requirements before we expand our staff and customer capacity and there is ONE more week of 'home' school to get through for those of us counting down the days!

We are enjoying such a variety of projects right now through our customer requests - long time WIP's that are getting a fresh look, some new projects underway for upcoming graduations and births, some collaboration projects and of course...where would we be without mask making!  We've been putting some fun packages together to pop in the mail too - sometimes we get a bit of guidance and sometimes we get to have a bit of creative fun!  Thanks for sharing your projects new and old with us!

If you're stuck inside with our rainy weather and fresh out of puzzles, we have a new combination puzzle and crossword challenge option for you!  



And we do have some new fabric arriving - a few boxes are showing up as warehouses resume shipping and staffing levels start to pick up.  Most of our orders are taking a bit longer to arrive, but the fabric reps indicate most issues with imports and printing delays have been resolved!

Two Years and a Lifetime!

2 years ago...Remember when we celebrated with Betsy Chutchian for a fun doll quilt 'crib' turning and day of play - no masks required!
Crib turning

Workshop with Betsy

This year it's been a bit quiet and we can't imagine sitting elbow to elbow and sharing a table, but one thing that's made this COVID event bearable for so many of us is our life-sustaining quilting and patchwork creative outlet.  If you've stitched up your stash over these past few weeks, we have some fresh fabric and Betsy really delivered with the recent release of Nancy's Needle.

Precuts!

Mixing it up with strips!



A wonderful variety of prints, great combination of color and scale....can't wait to play!  It's the next best thing to a workshop and quilt display!

 Enjoy!

We are currently open by appointment!  

Please use the booking tool on our home page to reserve a time for in-store shopping.  https://www.twothimbles.com/

We will expand the appointment offerings as needed, so please let us know if you have tried to book and no appointments were available!  We hope this method provides an opportunity for some of our at-risk customers to feel confident in their shop experience while also limiting the exposure and responsibilities for our staff.  We have implemented a few changes to our shop layout to help maintain social distancing and require that all customers wear facial coverings for the duration of their visit.

We have some additional operating logistics to resolve to meet Safe Start retail requirements before we can expand our staff and customer capacity and there are a couple more weeks of 'home' school to get through for those of us counting down the days!  We appreciate your ongoing patronage and look forward to seeing you in the shop soon!

June Already

We are limiting our content this week in observance of the significant issues facing our country both in recovery from the pandemic and in recognition of the long-standing racism and inequality that exists. We hope to see change and support that effort.     

Two Thimbles continues to accommodate the demand for mask making supplies and personal protective equipment (PPE) as well as support the community to create, collect and deliver PPE in our local area.

For now, we are available with reduced hours by phone for curb-side pick up services or shipping.  In-person shopping by appointment only.  Please use the booking tool on our website to schedule an appointment and review the confirmation email carefully for details about your visit.  https://www.twothimbles.com/

We encourage you to place an order over the phone or via email and allow us to do the shopping for you!  We've been adding more items to our website and you can always visit online 24 hours a day 7 days a week!    Feel free to call with any questions!
