Welcome Quilters! To our new shop, Bettys Thimble in Orion, Illinois for an unbelievable selection of everything you'll want for quilt making.
My shop, Bettys Thimble is named after my grandmother Elizabeth (Betty) Chapman Watters. While I didn’t learn to quilt from her I do remember that she was a wonderful seamstress. I also remember that she was never too far from her thimble and often wore it on her finger. She never (not that I recall) wore store-bought dresses. My grandpa bragged to his coworkers that he never had holes in his socks. She was a wonderful woman with a heart for serving others.
The logo represents her love for flowers, sewing and it has her signature. She loved the wildflower chicory which is where I got this beautiful blue color from. I hope you love it as much as I do!
