Don’t forget to visit the Yarn Adventure Truck while it’s here at Quilting Mayhem! Evie — the 30‑foot mobile yarn boutique — brings together yarn from more than 35 independent small‑batch dyers, plus handmade bags, enamel pins, and curated accessories. It’s like a mini yarn festival right in our parking lot, and the perfect place to explore new fibers before or after your workshop.
