Reno’s Going Batty Quilt Shop will debut a new location at Village Square on West Sahara Avenue this fall, bringing its fabric selection, sewing machines, and classes to Las Vegas for the first time.

Going Batty Quilt Shop, a well-known sewing and quilting retailer based in Reno, has announced plans to open its second location in Las Vegas. The new store is set to launch this fall at Village Square, located at 9400 W Sahara Avenue, Suite 14, in the West Sahara neighborhood.

The expansion marks the first time Going Batty Quilt Shop will operate outside of Northern Nevada, offering Las Vegas residents and visitors access to its curated selection of fabrics, sewing machines, and educational classes for all skill levels. The shop, owned by Keegan McGhie and Edmira Andrade McGhie, has served as a community hub for quilters and sewing enthusiasts since opening its original Reno location in 2003.

What to Expect at the New Location

According to the company, the Las Vegas store will feature a wide range of fabrics, sewing machines, and creative supplies, along with a schedule of classes designed for beginners and experienced quilters alike. The owners have hinted at additional surprises and new offerings exclusive to the West Sahara location, aiming to create a welcoming environment for the local quilting community.

Keegan McGhie, who is recognized for his expertise in sergers and creative machine techniques, will continue to lead educational programming at the new store. The team has shared updates on social media, noting that construction and preparations are progressing on schedule for a late fall opening.
