Ingrid Machtemes’ passion for quilting began in her teenage years and still shows no signs of waning. Before her business Quiltessential Co. opened in 2003, she had already been operating a home-based quilting and teaching business for years. “While I had been working from home, I was putting all my profit back into the business,” Ingrid says. “And I built up inventory and a client base so that I could open a store.”
Quiltessential Co. now offers a huge variety of quilting supplies such as quilting fabrics, kits, patterns and notions. As a one-stop shop for avid quilters, the store also provides quilting classes and additional services, including machine repairs and scissor sharpening.
Ingrid has so many beautiful fabrics, patterns and classes to suit everyone, from beginner to pro. The staff are always so helpful, every time I go in there I am inspired.
