ACCOMPLISH QUILTING MOVING TO Saint Joseph There's nothing like a blustery cold winter's day, when a good, old-fashioned hand-made quilt is pulled into place to tell you about the exciting new growth for the power team at Accomplish Quilting of Stevensville. Company President Jeff Benedict and his crew will relocate this spring to the building that was home for decades to Schneck's Supermarket and later Dollar General in the Southtown neighborhood of St. Joseph. Having outgrown their space in the former Stevensville Post Office over the past several years, Accomplish Quilting will perform a makeover on the former store at 810 Napier Avenue in St. Joseph after closing on the deal to buy that building last week. The new space will more than quadruple their available work and display space when compared to the building in Stevensville. The Napier site is 12,700 square feet, while the former post office building checks in at 2,612. Accomplish Quilting was founded in 2001 and has become a national leader in the sales and service of longarm quilting machines. They expanded operations into Goodlettsville, Tennessee a couple of years ago, and now will relocate their corporate headquarters and retail facility to the space just off of Napier and Niles across from the John & Dede Howard Ice Arena and Van's Pharmacy. Meanwhile, Realtor Pete Jorgensen will be entertaining inquiries regarding the old space at 2797 Kimmel Street in the Village of Stevensville. The Dollar General store building closed back in June and the property was sold at auction in recent weeks paving the way for this new home for Accomplish Quilting. As one of the largest and most successful long-arm quilting machine sales generators in North America, Accomplish Quilting has built a substantial and loyal clientele thanks to not only their expert sales team and talented instructors, but also thanks to a team of technicians that have proven to be second to none in the industry.
