Hello,
Quilted Threads does hold classes,and they participate in many community programs (the Pillow Case challenge, Quilts of Valor, etc.) They are a beautiful, well stocked, and very friendly shop. I've traveled 1 hour and 20 minutes to attend a lecture there. Well worth it.
I'm happy to see they made the 2011 Quilt Shop Sampler Magazine! Good news for them and the local economy.
