Hello Friend!

There is a whole lot of fun and excitement going on at Fox Country Quilts these days! We are continuing to grow and with that growth, there are some awesome adjustments to how we offer some of our services and classes.

Beginning on September 1, we will have two full-time Handi Quilter Certified technicians on staff so we can get to your machine's spa day more quickly!

We are now accepting longarm machines to be serviced in the shop! All you need to do is call to verify that we have a spa table ready for your machine's arrival!

If you purchased your machine package from Fox Country Quilts, YES! We are continuing our in-home services for you ... that's one of your benefits of choosing us to be your retailer!

We continue to add product and classes to each of our newest creative fun lines! Keep checking to find out what's new.
