The Silver Thimble
Bozeman, Montana · Since 1984
Bozeman's sewing and quilting boutique since 1984, now run by owner Jessica Higgins as a gathering place for local makers.
Bozeman has had this one since 1984, which in shop years is a long time to keep the lights on and the presser feet turning. The Silver Thimble is now run by Jessica Higgins, and it still functions the way a good local shop should — less like a retail stop and more like a place people circle back to on a Tuesday just to see who's in.
As a Husqvarna Viking dealer, this is where Bozeman-area quilters go when a machine needs real service, not just a sales pitch, and the shelves are stocked with the everyday sewing and quilting supplies you actually run out of mid-project.
What sets it apart is the calendar — classes and events that keep bringing the same faces back, plus room enough to just gather. If you're new to quilting in Bozeman, or you've been at it for years and want company while you work, this is the kind of shop built for both.
