Walking into a craft stores, I've often felt intimidated. I've held onto the idea that I could…read morenever be a person who makes things! No one in my family sews, knits or needlepoints, and I hadn't been taught elsewhere. Yet, I've always wanted to create something with my hands. Fortunately, Mary Margaret, the owner of Notion Fabric & Craft encouraged me to confront my fear of the sewing machine! It doesn't hurt that her store is NOT overwhelming like many craft stores I've been to. Though she is fully stocked with beautiful fabrics, yarns, patterns, crafting accessories and tools, stepping inside Notion feels like you have been invited into someone's home studio. I have taken two of Mary Margaret's classes. The first one was the first time I ever touched a sewing machine. I left with a beautiful tote bag that I am able to boast that I made. In the second class, she taught us how to make a shirt. Mary Margaret is a wonderful, patient teacher who supports you in all of your mini-milestones and successes, as well as your...uh...learning opportunities along the way. I particularly appreciated her talk about clothing sizes in stores and how all of our bodies are unique and fluctuate from time to time. We can't be defined by someone else's size or idea of a size! The classroom upstairs is a bright and inviting community space. Mary Margaret offers tea and coffee for added coziness. Notion Fabric and Craft is a much needed addition to Montpelier for expert crafters and novices alike. Do yourself a favor and take a class taught by Mary Margaret!

Highly recommend!! My sewing machine had some mysterious mechanical issues with the tension so I…read morebrought it in to get fixed. They fixed it perfectly and didn't even charge me anything more than the basic service fee. The person I talked to on the phone before I took it in didn't seem to know a lot about sewing machines, which didn't instill a lot of confidence, but don't let that dissuade you! The person who actually does the repairs is incredible!

Truly terrible experience all around. When my son and I went in to rent a tuxedo for his prom, the…read morewoman taking his measurements reported that she had never done this before and didn't know how to do it. Boy- was she right. The pants were many sizes too big at the waist and too short and the shirt was way too big. Plus- they gave him the wrong tie- a blue bow tie instead of a red necktie. When I returned the suit and requested a refund, the young woman that I spoke with was extremely rude She suggested that my son would need to come in so they can remeasure! I pride myself in supporting local businesses but this is one that people should avoid- horrible product and customer service.
