Quilt Shop in Cannon Beach, OR


Center Diamond Fabric in Cannon Beach is the place to go.  What a find!  We just happened to park in the public parking next to it.


It's a gorgeous building with beautiful gardens and what's inside doesn't disappoint!  (The only thing that hurts my Canadian brain is the way that 'Center' is spelled.  I keep spelling it wrong right!)


They stock a huge supply of modern fabrics, children's fabrics, batiks, linens.  It is a packed shop but beautifully merchandised.  They have quilts on display but also bags, clothing and more.


I wanted a yard of each and every bolt in the entire store.  But we couldn't fit it in the tent trailer so I held back.


A modern sewist's dream come true.  I'd love to work here!


Lots of flannels!


And pretty much every recent quilt and sewing book on the market.  This was just some of the selection!  So much fun!

If you are in Cannon Beach, OR this shop is a must see!

    Your first picture of the shop/plants is beeeauuutiful! I always love it when a store puts some pride and effort into the outside of their place!

      It's just so beautiful! All of Cannon Beach is really quite beautiful with flowers everywhere. I'm pretty sure the guy's wife was inside. Nice of them to leave a bench for the guys, isn't it? :-)

    Thanks for sharing!
    Your post made me sit here and finally find material for my denim rag quilt!! I LOVE Bonnie and Camille material and I finally found fat quarter bundles in FLANNEL this morning! So I ordered them. So excited!
