We're taking registrations for this upcoming Block (Row) of the Month program that begins in October...Save your seat now!

Always check out our Close Out section when you visit both the shop and online! We've added some more AccuQuilt Dies, Close Out Cuts & we're always rotating in more fabric bolts...We need to make room in the shop for all the new fabrics and items coming in all the time!

And don't forget to always peruse our Scrap Bin and build-you-own Scrap Happy Take Home Box whenever you visit our shop!  We've been doing this a long time, and it's a fan favorite! ~ The scrap boxes are a great value, you get to choose your own fabrics for them, and profits from the sale of our Scrap Happy Take Home Boxes goes to funding our Charity Quilt efforts, helping to pay for shipping of our quilt filled boxes! ...Speaking of our Charities ~ These are ongoing efforts, and we do accept donations of fabrics, children's books, handmade finished quilts, and pillow cases! We ship boxes with quilts and childrens books to Mountain Baby Blankets through the Christian Appalachian Project, and our shop is a drop off location for Project Linus & Ryan's Cases for Smiles :)

We're happy to announce that Spring Water Designs is now a drop off location for Project Linus! Project Linus of Howard County is a chapter of the national Project Linus organization that provides handmade quilts and blankets to children under 18 who are in hospitals, shelters, and county agencies who support children in need of a warm hug that handmade blankets and quilts can provide :)
On behalf of Project Linus of Howard County we are accepting donations of new handmade quilts, no-sew fleece blankets, and crocheted or knitted afghans. All donations must be a minimum size of 36" x 36", washable, and free of smoke and pet hair.

We also continue to accept Pillow Case donations for Ryan's Cases for Smiles too! These are ongoing efforts and donations can be dropped off at our shop anytime during regular shop hours :)


Anyone can jump in on our annual Spring Water Designs Fiber Finishes Challenge any time! The 2025 Fiber Finishes Challenge takes place in our Quilters In Place Facebook Group! All quilters are welcome to join us! All you need to start is a list numbered 1-12 and associate an unfinished project with each number (things that you want to work on in 2025). Each month we list a number and you work on that project. It's a fun way to get some of those UFOs finished! Join the FB Group for lots of sharing and show & tell :) The UFO number for each month will be announced in the FB Group, and posted in the shop.
