It’s only August, but if you’re planning on giving homemade gifts this holiday season, now is the time to get started. Depending on the number of people you will be exchanging gifts with, it will take time to decide what to make for each person, to purchase the supplies, and to create your gifts. The last thing you want is to run out of time, so as we head into the fall, now is the perfect opportunity to get started.
If your holiday gift list includes handmade quilts, you’ll likely be paying a visit to your local quilt shop. For those who live in Vista, CA, one local quilt shop worth checking out is Fat Quarters Quilt Shop.

Featuring over 4,000 bolts of premium quilting fabric, Fat Quarters carries fabric from popular brands including Moda, Marcus Fabrics, and Andover Fabrics. In addition, the shop offers a variety of classes for quilters of all skill levels to help you develop your skills.
