So I'm sure that by now you've probably noticed that the Studio 180 Design website is looking a little different from the last time you visited us. Well, as some of you might have heard through the grapevine, we've been working on a new website for a while now. It's been a long process, but it's finally time to unveil our newest creation (no, it's not a new quilt, just an entirely new website)! 

Unsurprisingly, some things have moved around from where they were on our previous site. Here's a quick breakdown of some of the biggest changes:

  

Store
    • The store portion of our page is mostly unchanged, though the order of products and sorting options are a little different. 
    • We've also added a convenient "Products by Tool" page which provides easy access to the entire collection of products divided by which tool(s) are used. 
  
Video Demonstrations
    • First, we've actually gone ahead and included the video demonstrations for all of our tools and technique sheets directly on their product pages so there's no searching when you want to find a given demonstration.
    • If you'd like to see the entire collection of our video demonstrations, the Videos tab in the top navigation bar now takes you directly to our Youtube page where all our videos are hosted. 
  
Gallery
    • All our gallery pages have been moved to the official Studio 180 Design Pinterest page.
    • You can still share your quilt projects to our Friends Gallery (though you'll need a pinterest account to do so). Once you've signed into your account, click the gray "+" symbol in the lower right corner and select the image you'd like to upload.
    • We've added a BlockBuster gallery to the lineup so you can share your BlockBuster blocks for everyone to see! 
  
Downloads
    • The link to our Downloads page has been moved to the bottom navigation menu.
    • The left handed technique sheet diagrams that were previously available on our Downloads page have been moved directly to their respective Technique Sheet page (so for example, if you're looking for the Shaded Four Patch Technique Sheet's left handed diagrams, you'll go to the product page, and scroll down to the "Details" section, and find the left handed download link).
  
Links
    • Don't worry, they're still here! Our collection of affiliate links is now located on the bottom navigation menu. 
      
    Wholesale
      • A note to all our current wholesale customers: with the change to our new website, we are asking all our wholesale customers to verify their information by creating new wholesale accounts. Thank you. Account creation details are here.

    While we hope we've quashed all the bugs that come up in the development process, I'm sure there's one or two that have evaded us. If you find any errors, or if you have any questions, concerns, or comments, please feel free to contact us.
