Welcome to Quiltessential Co. Inc!

As an extension of Ingrid Machtemes’ passion for quilting, Quiltessential Co.Inc. has grown to serve the quilting needs of St. Albert, Sturgeon County, Parkland County, the greater Edmonton area, and points beyond. Quiltessential Co.’s knowledgeable and enthusiastic staff seek to inspire, teach, encourage and assist quilters to appreciate and enjoy the art of quilting. Available in person, by phone and through email, we hope to provide you with the patterns, kits, books, materials, tools, and supplies you need to get as much pleasure from quilting as we do. So whether you want to stop by to drool over the latest fabric, seek advice on color coordination, or just talk quilting, call or stop by. We would love to help you succeed! We also do long arm quilting on our Gammill machines upstairs.

 20th ANNIVERSARY MONTH!
We are having a  QUILT challenge.
Sign up to make our Anniversary Quilt.
I have designed a special quilt for you to make. $42.99 gives you a Moda Charm pack, your accent fabric and alternate background fabric, the pattern and an exclusive Quiltessential Co fabric label for your quilt. There are four choices of Charm packs and several choices of matching fabrics. A Creative Grids 4 in 1 HST ruler is useful, but not necessary. You can choose your background or we can choose that for you (extra $24). You make the top, design your own borders, add applique, buttons, embroidery....be creative! The minimum size is 50", but you can make it longer, larger, etc. Send me a photo or show me the finished (quilted, labeled and bound) quilt by November 30th and maybe you will win one of the 3 Grand Prizes! We also mail this out.  Starts NOW.
