Husband and I were in Jefferson for business and as we were going down the highway I screeched,…read more"quilt store!" Now I was driving, so really, Husband had noacquaint me with the store and w choice in the matter, but even if I hadn't been, I've trained my car to automatically stop at quilt stores. And bookstores. And yarn stores. So it's win-win all around, yeah? Purple Frog. First of all, I love the name. It's so whimsical. And there are purple frog decorations inside, too. I was greeted (Husband decided to stay in the car and nap or something) by two extremely friendly ladies, who took time from what they were doing to show me where things were located. Including the restroom. Which, by the way, was extremely clean. Unfortunately I didn't have as much time to browse as I'd wanted, because who should come through the door but Husband! Dang. I'm sure he came in to prevent too much financial damage. I doubt he was interested in the fabric, though he did pretend to kind of look around. Hah. He thought he looked so innocent, but I know better. The classroom is huge, and there's a long-arm quilting machine in there too. There's lots of room to spread out, and taking a class here would be a real pleasure. I really wish I'd had more time to look around. I wanted to see all of the batiks and just see all the wonderful other fabrics. But yeah, okay, it was a business trip and I did need to be considerate. I did end up buying some wonderful fabric for a Christmas project, though. The ladies were really wonderful helping me figure out how much fabric I needed for that, and I left feeling extremely glad that we'd stopped by. Final score: Lighting and appeal in general: 5 stars Customer service: Ditto Cleanliness of the shop and the bathroom: Ditto again. Fabric choices: Ditto yet again. Attractiveness and layout: Another 5 stars. I've been in a number of quilt stores, and The Purple Frog is at the top of my list. It's easy to find and is a great pleasure to shop in. Thank you ladies (I'm sorry I didn't get your names) for a truly enjoyable shopping experience. It's worth the drive down!

Went into WillnBeez a few weeks ago as a few friends from the Mid-Valley Quilt Guild recommended…read morethem for friendly personal service. I wasn't to be disappointed, Jeff and Mary are the "real deal" nice, personable and helpful. The rest of the staff is just as friendly as the owners. Beautiful fabrics and what can be better than coffee!! If you need a longarmer for a quilt, Jeff is your man. They have a longarm in the back room and he stays busy back there when he's not helping out in the shop. Mary is knowledgeable and friendly and keeps a lovely stock of beautiful fabrics, notions and patterns for your quilting pleasure. You can even see them at some of the local quilt shows with a smaller selection of fabrics and the same cheerful, helpful service in their booth. If you are interested in making some charity quilts, WillnBeez is a member of the Quilts of Valor quilt shop program. You can join them for meetings, sew groups, kits to make blocks, a place to drop off finished tops and orphan blocks, heck you can even drop off a finished QOV and they will see that it is awarded to a deserving Veteran. Contact Mary if you would like more info on how you can help. Since first going in all those weeks ago, I have had a chance to chat further with the owners and become friends with them. You won't be disappointed.

The fabric selection was amazing. They had such a great selection of pre-assembled kits. The customer service was outstanding! Mary was so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable.

I am looking forward to visiting again!

If I could give 10 stars to Paramount I would!! My husband was referred to Paramount when he was…read morelooking to take in my old sewing machine for a tune-up. I was having so much trouble and I tried to adjust it myself but it still wasn't sewing correctly so I was convinced it needed a tune-up. My husband got me my Brothers sewing machine about 22 years ago and it has been a good machine and I have used it so much over the years. So my husband took my machine into Paramount who said it would cost about 99.00 and so about a day later we get a call that it was ready!! I was so excited to get my sewing machine back because I had a new project ready for it. When we went to pick it up they said we owed $2.99 I thought maybe it was to far gone but no that wasn't it.....that was the cost of the metal bobbins that I needed to use instead of the plastic bobbins that I had been using. OMG!!! It is so nice to do business with honest and trustworthy people. I was blown away, they could have rightly charged me because after all they looked at my machine and made adjustments. That was such a nice and refreshing surprise!!! Thank you Paramount!!! PS - I just finished sewing a dress for my granddaughter and it turned out beautiful and my machine ran like new!! #saynotoplasticbobbin

The lady behind the counter was on the phone. After she hung up I was still browsing through the sale fabric. She didn't acknowledge me at all even though we were about 3 feet apart. They have a wonderful selection of quilting fabric. I was impressed by how much fabric there was at a sewing & vacuum store. There's also notions and some quilting books. The other woman working there wasn't friendly either. Even when I brought up my fabric to be cut, I got a chilly reception from the first lady by the front door.

This ain't your Grandma's fabric store!…read more After learning my first grandchild was in the cooker, I started to think about making a baby quilt. I rarely sew, and had never attempted piecing. But now that I was about to enter a new level of passage, I figured it was time to do what Grandmas in my family have done for generations... make a grand baby welcome quilt! I checked out a lot of fabric stores in my area, but liked BJ's best. It is a small shop located out in the middle of almost nowhere, south of Tillamook. It is stocked with lots of modern and unique fabrics, trimmings, patterns, and notions. Their extensive display of sample quilts makes it easy to imagine the possibilities and sets them apart from other shops I visited. And imagining possibilities was just up my alley. My DIL selected gray, white, and lavender for the nursery... and I could choose whatever accent color I wanted for the crib quilt. (Hunh? What happened to pink or blue?) Lucky for me, BJ and Kathy have an eye for contemporary fabrics and had what I needed to make the quilt I wanted to make. What a relief! I also opted to take a quilt making workshop. It was a great investment! Kathy was patient, kind, and nonjudgmental. She guided me through the process and gently reinforced positive outcomes without focusing on my technical issues... like not sewing straight and having trouble with the math. I highly recommend BJ's Fabric and Quilts and the way they do business!
