So many wonderful colors to create all kinds of theme parties: weddings, showers, princess parties, you name it. Very friendly, helpful, and affordable prices.

V Nai Mini Mall in Fresno is a small indoor mall with several Hmong owned shops. You can find…read moreclothing, accessories, fabrics, and custom pieces that feel unique and culturally specific. It has a very old school and nostalgic vibe. That said, it's pretty small and not all the stalls were open, because we visited during the Hmong New Years. The layout feels outdated and very cluttered, but the vendors that were there were friendly and welcoming. It's worth stopping by if you're nearby or looking for something specific, but it's more about browsing than a full shopping experience.

We stumbled into V-Nai after having lunch at a nearby restaurant. V-Nai's set up remsembles a…read moreindoor type swap meet. Majority of the stalls are Hmong vendors selling Clothing , Shoes, Purses , Fabrics and Medicines. We enjoyed browsing the stalls as it reminded us of the stalls in Asia.

The owner was very welcoming, knowledgeable about the designers she stocks, and her little dog was adorable too! I grabbed a couple cuts of fabric to take home. She had a great selection so it was tough to pick just a couple! There was a good mix of retro/vintage, antique, modern, colorful, baby prints, flannels, etc. She was also totally stocked with notions. Prices were on par for quality quilt fabrics.

They also have a great selection of fabric and other sewing/crafting notions. If you are new to all this, like I was, they have a very good educational program. Take their classes!

This new shop opened in the late spring 2023. It's the only Quilt store that simply a quilting shop…read morein Clovis. It has a different focus than the other sewing and quilting shops in the Fresno area. Mary Kay, the proprietor is a charming and lovely woman Very attentive to detail. The shop is in an old house. It's been converted to the store. Behind the store there is a converted garage where she has a classroom and holds classes. Check out the calendar. The calendar lists sewing days that you can sign up for, and classes with a variety of techniques for many different types of styles and interests of all types of Quilters. Now down to the Fabrics. She has a focus on Lori Holt from Riley, Blake fabric manufacturer, fresh, bright, and pretty. She also carries a number of major lines from Moda, including the collection for a cause, French general, which is sort of a romantic, antique look, and also Andover prints by laundry basket, quilts. These are things that greatly interest me and other shops in town tend to focus more on modern fabrics and modern quilting with a lot of batiks and modern prints. So I'm glad The Quilted Goat is focused on providing a different sort of inventory. In addition, The Quilted Goat carries a lot of pre-cuts, plus fat quarters if you just want to select a few little pieces to fill out your stash or sample things. She has a whole wall of notions. This is towards the back of the shop. The shop is decorated in kind of a vintage style vibe. Additionally, there are many quilts and samples of sewing on display. One of the quilts, a disappearing nine patch was beautifully displayed, and there is a class coming up on that at the end of January this year 2024 every room has something inspiring, fun, vibrant to get your quilting juices flowing. Mary Kay sends out a newsletter which you can also find on her website. In my opinion, this is the best quilting store in town.

I'll definitely be returning and buying some her beautifully made clothing. And I did find the piece of fabric that I was hoping to find.

With a studio space right on Fulton, it can be easy to miss when walking by. However, once inside, it's a very roomy space! The decor is super cute, there's tons of plants, and the artwork for sale is all handmade (I didn't get pictures of all of it). I even got a sticker for stopping by. Christine also has yoga classes on certain days with payment options that best suit your budget (and I think there's a monthly option as well). There are a few chairs and a couch for lounging, and the staff member that I talked to was super sweet! Definitely a great hangout area or even just for a quick stop by to check everything out!
