Very sorry to hear of Milton's passing. I have lots of memories of visiting in the shop & of seeing you both at quilt shows. Milton is the reason I try to make the backs of my quilts almost as interesting as the fronts.

So sad to hear of Miltons passing. I have had some awesome help over the years since i found the shop in Morrinsville. Milton had so many beautiful fabrics to chose from it was hard to pick just the right ones. But Milton would always manage to help. RIP.

Our thoughts are with you at this time. Wrights fabrics was a part of my life from a very young age, so to have been able to purchase the business from Milton in 2018 was incredible. Such an inspiration and a hard act to follow. Karen Aroha Quilts

Dear Julie & family, my deepest sympathies at the passing of Milton. Wonderful memories of your trips to Wellington area & his encouragement of my batik purchases. The lovely conversations over the years. Sharing the enjoyment of WOW together, by coincidence, which was the last time we talked. Rest in Peace Milton.

Fond memories of Milton's and Julie's many visits to Waitara on Regional Days with the many batik fabrics on display. Milton was always ready for a chat and loved working with all the quilters - an icon of the quilt retailing community.
