Heritage Designs Quilting & Needlework
Amana, Iowa · Ships online too · Since 1976
A third-generation Amana Colonies quilt shop since 1976, housed in an 1895 granary and named a Top 10 US shop.
Heritage Designs Quilting & Needlework sits inside an 1895 granary in the Amana Colonies, and it's now on its third generation of family ownership since opening in 1976 — the kind of continuity that's genuinely rare in this business. Small towns don't always keep a fabric shop going for fifty years, but this one has, and it shows.
The building alone is worth the visit, but the fabric wall backs it up: a strong run of batiks and 1930s reproduction prints for quilters who love that vintage, feed-sack look. The shop also carries cross-stitch and tatting supplies, which puts it in a smaller club of shops still serving needleworkers beyond quilting alone.
It was named one of the Top 10 US quilt shops back in 2009, and the granary setting has probably only gotten more charming with time. If you're touring the Amana Colonies, put this on the list.
