    Canadian quilt makers

    Noob question number .....can’t remember

    Seeing some great reccos on quilts but so many are US based.
    30 cents on the dollar PLUS customs means for something like an Enlightened revelation for $280US I will likely be 400 or more with shipping, customs duty etc.
    Just wondering if any knows of some Canadian makers?

    There are two others in Canada that I am aware of, beside LSOH mentioned by Shugeedy-Shug-Shug-Shug --

    Stoney Creek Hammocks in BC: https://stoneycreekhammock.wixsite.com/website-1 (also has a Facebook storefront www.facebook.com/StoneyCreekHammocks/shop)

    Hofman Outdoor Gear Supply in Manitoba: https://hofmanoutdoorgearsupply.ca (who never seems to have quilts in stock, although he shows them as products he sells)

    James Jackson of Little Shop of Hammocks does outstanding work...I have personal experience with a couple of his hammocks, a quilt, and a hammock top cover. He's a one-man operation though and currently shows a 17 week lead time (gulp).

    And I'm pretty sure dd hammocks has a dealer out Alberta way. Their underquilt looks like a decent budget option... like $100 for -5 I think.

    Hey There
    I have a number of Ready to Ship Quilts both for Topquilts and for Underquilts at
    https://www.littleshopofhammocks.com/
    I am getting caught up on lead time however I would prefer to be under rather than
    over the lead time.
    Cheers
    James

    [mention]Canadark [/mention] thanks for the mention! Demand has been through the roof this past year, i just plain cant keep up. Being a one man operation myself, I’ve taken to a open/closed books type operation for the time being. I have a sign-up on the product page. When I have completed orders to a point where lead times are around 4-6 weeks than I start taking orders again. They fill up fast, once I have hit the 12 week mark I close orders again. Likely should start looking for help! Cheers,
