Tip Tuesday - April 28, 2026 - 5 Mother's Day Gift Ideas

Tip Tuesday 

We know Mom doesn’t need more fabric…but we do know the things she oohs and ahhs over when she’s in the shop.

If you’re looking for something a little different this year, we pulled together a few of our favourite gift ideas—thoughtful, useful, and just the right amount of special.

From beautiful handmade notions and practical tools she’ll actually use, to ready-to-enjoy pieces (no sewing required), these are the kinds of gifts that don’t just sit on a shelf.

For the moms, the almost-moms, the chosen moms, and all of the moms in between.

Maker Spotlight - April 28, 2026 - Lorraine's Halo Quilt in Blues (pattern by Jen Kingwell)

 

Inspired by the a Blue version of the Halo Quilt by @jenkingwell, Lorraine created this beautiful blue and neutral version that’s full of quiet detail the more you look. 

The hand quilting is what makes everything shine. Lorraine taught our first Hand Quilting Skill Builder at OOH, and it’s a privilege to have her finished piece hanging in the shop. Every detail gets to be admired again and again.

This quilt also became part of the inspiration behind the our very own version of the Blue Halo Quilt - carefully curated by Marilyn, and perfectly packaged by Alison.
