About Us

Pins and Needles started in our home as a labor of love for quilting. It all started with a few bolts of fabric and a lot of fun.We converted a perfectly good garage into the shop and away it went.

After purchasing a top notch Embroidery machine as well as a Long Arm Quilting machine,space was getting a little tight.Soon it had also completely taken over the entire basement and was creeping into the house.

Now we've moved and are expanding into selling online. Our son has a web hosting business just down the street. North Wind Media Check Him Out. He's been very helpful.

(Signworks did the beautiful signs, They installed  on a "cold cold day" in January!!)

A great two-story location right on Main Street in Farmington Maine. We had been looking for the right location for some time and we sure found it. It's filled with wonderful products and we didn't lose the "feel" it had at the house.

We have a nice sitting area to relax and sew or your company can read while you shop.

The huge downstairs has recently been completely renovated to accomodate all the class "room" anyone would ever need. As you can see,we were just moving in.

We recently started carrying some fine Alpaca wool from Vermont.

We now have thousands of bolts of great fabric and our yarn selection is vast but the best part is,,it's all fine quality. So come feast your eyes when you're in town.

Being downtown, we really enjoy all the visitors to our shop. Please stop by if you just have a question about a project or are "stuck,,we love to help (that's the fun part)

And a special thanks to our friend Laurie who (for some reason) seems to love the chaos that "is" doing the Quilt Show every year.Thanks for being there.

So come by and see us if you can or be looking for our products on here soon.
