Hi there, I'm Andrea!
Welcome to Willow Cottage Quilt Co! Our studio space is located in Alberta, Canada, where we have operated our shop for the past 8 years.
Once upon a time, you could find me vaccinating puppies, spaying cats, and doing all things veterinary. In fact, during my clinic ownership days, the ladies I worked with thought it was funny that I would be binding quilts in my office between appointments. I would attend quilting classes in the evening, but rarely made it through a class without the pager (yes, this was back in pager days!) going off and having to leave to attend to a veterinary emergency.
Several years ago, I sold my veterinary practice, to be home with my three young girls and I filled nap times and preschool days with sewing, crafting and creating.
My girls are growing, my veterinary career is still on hold, but this beautiful business has grown and filled my soul. We have gone from just myself selling fabric from the craft room in my home, to building a gorgeous studio, and employing 6 (and soon to be more!) wonderful and talented people to help run our studio and online shop.
 I have loved sourcing unique and hard to find fabrics and notions from all over the world, and introducing you to these wonderful companies. While we still continue to do that (and have so many wonderful plans, including beautiful collaborations and so much more), we also kept hearing the same thing over and over from our customers: “I wish I could come to your studio but I live too far away”. This is where the idea came to me that I wanted to create a virtual studio experience that captured the magic and beauty of Willow Cottage. It is the next best thing to being here in person! We have created a truly magical online experience that is unlike anything you have seen before. Our online studio is where we will gather, and create not only beautiful projects, but create a beautiful community and lasting friendships. I so hope you will join us at the Willow Cottage Creative!

I am so impressed with not only the content you have provided so far but the level of engagement you are providing.

Deirdre
I received my package & just love it!
Thank you Andrea, Laurie & Liliane for sending us a little bit of Willow Cottage through the mail!!!
Excited to start making something new with this group.
Ninon
I just received my box today and I am absolutely delighted! What a thoughtful and welcome gift!
So many times we see these things and overlook so much, it takes a wonderful teacher to point out the details and bring the book to life:
I took a closer look at the patchwork quilt and the Father Christmas doll and they are so much more interesting and fun than I would have imagined.
Pat
I just finished watching Andrea's tutorial on the Tilda Santa. I am in awe of her patience and work! She broke it down into step by step increments.
I admit I was skeptical about getting it done before Christmas.
I am a visual learner so seeing the videos helped as far as reading and rereading directions.
Gabriele
I'm so enjoying making the quilted Father Christmas. It's a great way to create him by follow Andrea's series of videos.
Thank you they are an easy tutorial to follow.
