Workshops

Beginners and quilters of all skill levels are welcome! Workshops are designed to teach you the basics of how to sew, while helping you to repurpose your collection of t-shirts, sweatshirts & sports jerseys into a life-long keepsake. Did we mention they’re also FUN & a GREAT EXPERIENCE with a partner, friend or family member? We primarily host these at our Williamstown, Massachusetts HQ, but check back for dates of us popping up in a city near you!

“My husband and I had NO previous quilting experience but with Stacey’s step by step guidance and coaching we created this amazing quilt!! We’re soon to be empty nesters who wanted to make good use of our daughters volleyball uniforms when we miss her away at college. We created this beauty! So worthwhile & magical to see our quilt come together with Stacey. We have a whole new appreciation for the time, work & dedication it takes to quilt. Our first quilt… but won’t be our last”

Retreats

  • The memories from the Spring 2025 Longarm 3-Day Retreat at Little Gilly Quilts in Williamstown (MA) was one I will always cherish. The classes were taught by Valeria Guimaraes of the famed VG Quilting Facebook group. I learned many hands-on techniques, tips and tricks that will improve my longarm skills in the future. Our small group of 4 people made it personal, fun, and gave us the opportunity to get all of our questions answered. Our host, Stacey Gilfillan, made my stay extremely comfortable. Accommodations were outstanding and meal selection from a wide variety of takeout restaurants was excellent. Having breakfast prepared and lunch ordered kept us on task. We chose to order dinner in so we could relax at the house and share life experiences. Looking forward to future retreat opportunities.
