Introducing Grandma's newest-in-store Quilt Club, Grandma's Victory Garden. Led by Grandma Rachel, this club current meets online, available nation wide.

With husbands, sons, and fathers at war in the 1940s, American women were not only faced with maintaining their homes and families, they were also expected to keep the nation's economy running through either working outside the home or by conserving much needed food and household goods. Often, it was both. So, the nation's women planted victory gardens, sewed and knitted clothing, quilted by the radio, and waited for their husbands, sons, and fathers to return.

In our new club, you can explore the lives of women in this fascinating time period. You'll receive a kit to make a fabulous quilt, with four different colorways from which to choose. You'll also receive 5" squares of fruit and veggie fabric each month, along with a colorful booklet filled with economizing tips and techniques, plus stories from the time period. Join us as we look at women's efforts, as well as sacrifices, on the home front as our nation united to support each other during World War II.

Quilt block kits are available in four color schemes: Americana Batiks; Purple & Teal Batiks, 1930s Blue & Yellow, and Blue & Purple solids. Participation is $10 per month per colorway. There is a $10 membership fee which helps offset the cost of class materials.

Grandma's Quilt Clubs are like no others that we know about. They are a fun way to learn about history that affects women today and discover new products. Clubs are currently held virtually with

Temporary Change of Hours

Temporary Change of Hours

Monday through Saturday 10:00 am - 3:00 pm; Sunday Noon - 3:00 pm

Based on new guidelines issued by Oregon Governor Kate Brown regarding the Covid-19 corona virus pandemic, we are, once again, making changes to our store hours and how we conduct business at Grandma's Attic.

During this difficult time, our brick and mortar store will be open from 10 am to 3 pm Monday-Friday, and Noon to 3 pm on Sunday. This reduction in hours allows us to limit the number of employees working, as well as keep our shop as clean as humanly possible. 

Based on the Governor's recommendation of groups of 10 or fewer people, we are suspending our quilt clubs until further notice. Instead, we will have class materials ready by the scheduled time for club. You can either pick them up any time after that, or make arrangements to have them mailed to you. In addition, our class schedule will be seriously curtailed. If you are registered in a class that has been cancelled, you will be notified by phone. 

We understand if you do not feel comfortable visiting us here at the shop for the time being. You can always call us (503-623-0451) or visit us online at https://grandmasatticquilting.com. We mail packages every day. Whether you live two miles away or two thousand, we are always happy to hear from you!

We will continue to communicate with you via social media, as well as make every effort to ensure that everyone who visits with us feels safe and comfortable. We will continue to monitor the situation as it develops.
