Noe Cantu - Owner


Noe has been around sewing his entire life. His mother Olga loved to sew. She made costumes, alterations, and hand quilting. It was not until the pandemic that he found his love for sewing. He had a basic sewing machine and made hundreds of masks to send to friends, family, and anyone who needed a mask. After things started to open up again he upgraded his machine and started getting into bag making, clothes making, and embroidery. In 2022 he left his full time job working in logistics to pursue a new career in the sewing community. In a short time he learned so much more with sewing, teaching, embroidery, and machine repair. In June of 2022 Noe and a few friends started planning for a new adventure. After a few months of planning and lots of changes to the plans and the community in Northern Colorado we came to where we are today. A small space on N. Lincoln Ave, Loveland, CO that has been transformed from a dark space to a fresh new space that offers long arm quilting, quilt quality fabric, sewing notions, classes, sewing machines, and a warm and welcoming space to sit, chat, build community, and have a cup of coffee or tea. A great welcoming community is at the top of the list! Noe is always looking for new techniques to learn and share with anyone who wants to learn. When Noe is not in the shop you will find him enjoying time with his friends who are more like family, driving around with the top off of his Jeep, riding his scooter around town, road biking, camping, hiking, ATV trail riding, and of course sewing!
Thanks to all of the support from our local sewing community we have been able to expand and move to our new location at 649 Denver Ave, Loveland, CO 80537
