| A Family Business
Since January 6, 1997 when Rachel's Quilt Patch was dedicated, I have been realizing my dream of owning my own fabric shop. Fifteen years have passed by and though much has changed, much still stays the same. The rewards are greater than I had ever imagined, but running the shop is challenging as I knew it would be. I have been blessed with some of the best employee/friends and customers any business owner could hope for. With the addition of my daughter, Kay, it is truly a "family" operation.
We love quilting and sharing our quilting experience with you! We are here to help you in every way we can, from selecting fabric, assisting beginners as they get started and guiding experienced quilters through new tools & techniques. We are dedicated to creating a rewarding and enjoyable shopping experience for quilters and crafters of every skill level.
Rachel's Quilt Patch is housed in the freight station of the Staunton Railroad Station, now called Staunton Station. The freight station is a brick building circa 1860, that was been beautifully and faithfully restored. Our wood floors, beamed ceilings, and antique counters and fixtures are a warm compliment to the fabric and quilting supplies found inside.
Sharing the freight station with us is the Depot Restaurant. When you visit us be sure to include some time for lunch or dinner.
