Bear Paw Quilting will be closed to enjoy these holidays with our families!

July 4, 2014: 4th of July

We're so glad to see the sun come out and both of us are really looking forward to summer. We are having a great spring here at Bear Paw Quilting and are thrilled to announce that we are now a Judy Niemeyer Certified Shop! We spent a week in Kalispell, Montana learning all about Judy's paper piecing technique and the way her program and technique of the month is going to work. We want to be your “go to” shop for all that is paper piecing and you are going to love this great technique. ‘Like’ us on Facebook to keep up with the progress of our version of the beautiful Paradise in Bloom quilt. Watch for the Technique of the Month classes which will be offered in the fall, to be taught by our wonderful teacher, Sandy McCause.

Next we were off to Chicago for training on the new BERNINA long arm machine. Watch for the Q24 & Q20 (sit down version) to arrive at our store sometime this early summer. We were thrilled to get our hands on this wonderful new addition to the BERNINA family. Once again BERNINA is offering you a great machine and we can now answer all your quilting needs. Stop by the shop for more information.

Sew-Quilt-Embroider! We are excited to be receiving the first of the Next Generation 7 Series machine models with the NEW adaptive thread tension for perfect stitch quality. BERNINA quality just gets better!

We hope you enjoy your summer and come by to see us, at

Bear Paw, often in the next few months.

Happy Quilting!
