What a beautiful museum housed in an historic Victorian house. A most enjoyable museum, a large gift shop and beautiful environment. I was happy to stumble onto the annual fiber arts sale. Quilts, yarns, fabrics and various tools for sale. I scored. Pleasant experience.

An eclectic mix of artistic mediums presented to you daily by our own local artists! Our business started in 2012 in the SouthWest corner of the Pier 7 building and our name was That's Knot All an Artists' Co-op. February 2016 we were lucky to have an opportunity to move into the front of the same building and with that change we are also changing our name, this takes time so please also look for "La Conner Artists' Gallery A Cooperative Spirit". Same building same great artists!

My family has been using the bulk detergent from Handmade La Conner for nearly a year now, and likely will not go back to regular commercial products. First, the products are manufactured in the back of the store using safe natural ingredients, and then packaged in bulk. Second, even a small bag of the detergent goes a long way; for our high-efficiency front-loading washer, we use about 1/2 tablespoon of the powdered detergent per load. While we can order the products online, since we happened to be in town for a long weekend, we decided to stop in and see where the products are made. In addition to cleaning products, there are also a wide variety of beauty products and other organic, natural goods, from lip moisturizer to soap to re-usable shopping bags to t-shirts to pens and pencils. There's something for everybody here.

After several trips to LaConnor, I finally searched out its museums and what a great surprise. This museum high on a hill. Has amazing vistas, beautiful displays, a sweet gift store and an amazing, helpful staff. It was a most enjoyable experience. I was also gifted with suggestions as to other nearby towns to visit.
