At Quilter’s JEM, creativity runs deep! Owner Kim Dietrich and her daughter Emma Gulbranson combine talents to bring quilters fresh, modern designs. Emma is the creative force behind Design STORM, a pattern brand sold exclusively at Quilter’s JEM.

DesignStorm’s newest release, Formation, is the perfect example of a striking, dynamic quilt built from clean angles and unexpected color movement. Kim’s shop, Quilter’s JEM, is where each pattern comes to life and quilters can find everything they need to make their own masterpiece. Alongside the printed Formation pattern, Quilter’s JEM offers the precision paper pieces that make construction easier and more accurate, especially for those crisp angles.

Our must have CutterPillar product to make Foundation Paper Piecing a breeze is any of their amazing glow light boards. We personally love the Ultra lightboard because it gives us the biggest lighted space for all size projects and pieces. We also love to pair this light board with their Tempered Glass Mat on one side of the board to have the ultimate setup with half cutting and half pressing station on the Ultra light board. Mastering FPP is possible with the CutterPillar tools.
