This is a great small business to support.
Angela and the quilting fairies at Quilted Joy are wonderful. I ordered some fabric, thread and bobbins and received all of it two days later. Also got a cute handwritten note from Angela. This is a great small business to support. Also sign up for her weekly email with great ideas, tutorials and videos.

Very high quality of quilting fabric
I ordered a quilt kit and it was shipped out quickly! Very high quality of quilting fabric, too. How I wish I lived closer to this store, but all should feel confident in ordering from here. Angela is such an inspiration!

Meet Angela & the Quilt Fairies

Any day with stitches in it is a better day! Quilted Joy founder Angela Huffman — co-host of PBS’ Fons & Porter’s Love of Quilting — and her team of Quilt Fairies have been making quilt magic happen in Louisville, Kentucky since 2014, helping quilters like you finish hundreds of cozy creations.

Read Our Full Story

A quilt shop with real quilters behind it. Our brick and mortar shop in Louisville, Kentucky is home to our quilting studio, longarm quilting machine training center, APQS showroom, and Intelliquilter dealership. Angela and the Quilted Joy Quilt Fairies offer insight, tips, advice, and a helping hand to new and experienced makers alike.

Angela co-hosts PBS’ Fons & Porter’s Love of Quilting, which airs in 95% of US markets — she has appeared on the show for over 10 years. Breaking down complex quilting topics into approachable, whimsical, bite-sized bits is one of her superpowers, and you can enjoy her instructional videos right here on Quilted Joy.

After a broadcast television career — complete with an Emmy award — Angela discovered machine piecing and machine quilting in 2000 and never looked back. She began quilting for hire in 2007, the very beginnings of Quilted Joy, and our official APQS Showroom and Education Center opened its doors on October 26, 2013.

The Quilt Fairies are specially trained to guide you through every step of your quilting journey, and the Shipping Sprites work to mail out your sewing lovelies FAIRY fast. Since 2014 we have helped quilters complete hundreds of cozy creations through our online quilt shop, quilting classes, and Quilt By Mail longarm quilting service.

Our mission is to instill courage and self-confidence in quilters while wallowing in the joy of quilting. Angela travels nationally and internationally to guilds, studios, and quilt shows teaching piecing and longarm quilting techniques, has been featured in magazines like Machine Quilting Unlimited and On Track, and is a former nominee for US Machine Quilter Teacher of the Year. Since 2019, the Quilted Joy Clubhouse livestream has shared her love of quilting far and wide, twice a month on all our social channels.
