Moonlight Stitching Studio & Sisters Retreat
Deb's Story
Deb Thies, owner and visionary behind Moonlight Stitching Studio & Sisters Retreat, grew up stitching- crocheting, knitting, cross stitching and sewing. These hobbies have taken her through various stages of her life. Deb always anticipated the rewards of hand-made items to give or keep, the instant gratification and pride in one's accomplishments and successes as well as the skill growth in the mistakes and failures. Her dream focused on her three main passions:
stitching, friends, and food!
In 2010, Moonlight Stitching Studio & Sisters Retreat was established, right in the heart of downtown West Union, Iowa. Housed in a historic 1890 building, Moonlight Stitching accommodates a retail store, sleeping quarters, a complete kitchen and dining area, and so much more.
Experience the feel of small town Iowa, and stay at Moonlight Stitching Studios & Sisters Retreat.
Custom Orders
Custom quilt orders are welcome!
Great pride in the ability to use a loved ones' clothing and turn it into treasured memory quilts to warm and comfort those left behind.
T-shirt quilts are another favorite creative opportunity for preserving memories for those moving to a new chapter in life.
Machines and Materials
Longarm quilting serves are available using a 24 " Nolting Pro on a 14' table. Loopy meander is Deb's signature quilting style.
