"Welcome! Come in, come in!" That's how my grandfather always answered the door and my grandmother was always ready with goodies for guests. Today I want to welcome you into the shop where so many new quilt goodies are waiting to greet you. As you walk through our doors you'll immediately find four new quilts on display, all with delicious kits ready to begin your next project. We look forward to saying hello!

Don't the two quilts above look like they're fresh from the clothesline? Gentle backgrounds offer a sun-washed look. Both featuring fabrics from Fig Tree's Rosie collection, they hint at patriotic summer celebrations. On the left, Lynette Christensen pieced the Galaxy quilt using a scrap-tacular mix of low volume prints to provide a gentle backdrop to traditional stars in shades of solid blue. On the right, Sweet Sugar Swirls is made using a Honey Bun (1.5" precut strips). Natalie Smith says it was so fun to sew up!

Next you will notice the lovely new quilt above made by Denise Thompson to introduce some exciting new opportunities... 

Liza Taylor is coming to Corn Wagon for a trunk show and book signing!

During this hour-long, in-person trunk show, Liza will show and tell all about her quilts and the journey that has carried her into the joys of professional pattern writing, blogging, fabric designing, and more. She's as kind as she is creative and you're going to love meeting her during a book signing following the trunk show! Register now for just $15 and come away with brilliant inspiration.

Liza's Wonderful World of Paper-Pieced Quilt Blocks is available for 15% off at the shop to those registered for the trunk show so you can be ready for the book signing. She will have more of her fabulous patterns and products at the show that you can purchase from her!

Of course, we must make the quilt! Join our Natural Harmony BOM. We'll follow Liza Taylor's expert foundation paper piecing instructions over the course of 12 months to make 8 creatures-of-flight and 11 floral blooms in blocks that have a sophisticated sensibility. All come together harmoniously in the 56.5" x 61" full-size sampler quilt shown above featuring a beautiful range of solid fabrics.

BONUS: Included in your BOM registration is an exclusive, one-time paper-piecing demo with Liza Taylor herself at our retreat center on Saturday, May 30th at 10:00 a.m.. You'll also have a complimentary seat reserved for her trunkshow and book signing at 11:00 a.m. following the demo! Your first kit will be ready for you that day.

Another new quilt now at the shop is a hint at our theme for the 2026 Utah Shop Hop coming up April 24th - May 2nd. This year we're celebrating 25 years of shop hopping with the "Silver Screen" and Corn Wagon will feature The Little Mermaid. The Ocean Waves quilt above is just one of several new quilts we will have on display for the hop. Pieced by Jen Tanner in Liberty of London prints using Triangles on a Roll, this traditional block comes together with precision. Find the pattern as a PDF here.
