    A friend told me about Calico Corners, so the last time I was in Indianapolis I decided to check it out because I needed new curtains for my bedroom.

    I came into the shop looking for Fray Check, which they didn't have. For probably the best reason…read morethat if you properly sew your clothes, you don't need to worry about fray. One of the clerks looked it up for me at Walmart, even gave me the aisle number. All of this was wonderful, but the real reason for the review would be their lovely fabrics. I am the least skilled seamstress that ever existed. I gave up sewing long ago. If someone would have put effort into selling me something, I'd be the fool who'd buy something beautiful to turn it into a three car collision. The most beautiful fabrics.

    I am a sucker for a locally owned / specialty type quilt shop and have been meaning to get in to…read morethe French Seam for a while - but they were never open when I tried! I totally understand that Covid has forced us a lot of businesses to adjust their hours and the way they run - and the French Seam was no exception. Luckily, I had a day off work recently and was able to get in on a weekday during their limited business hours. Let me just say this - they have some gorgeous fabrics. Quilting cottons are separated from the garment fabrics in the small front area and they have a few notions available. I love being able to look through pre-cuts and they had a good selection of fat quarters organized by color in rolling carts available for purchase. I was also told that there was a 'clearance' area in the back/warehouse type area - so I made a break for it (you had me at clearance!). Back there I was able to score a package of fat quarters for $3 (I was told it was because they were 'old' fabrics - but who cares?) and some other pre-cut yardage at a discount. SCORE! Back in the open 'warehouse' type area also appears to be where machines are located and perhaps where classes would be held (pre/post Covid). Of note, I think I may have thrown off the older, more conservative appearing lady working in the store with my appearance when I walked in, but the younger gal working the counter was very sweet. Overall, I was excited for my new-to-me fabrics to add to my stash and glad I got to check the place out as it is SUPER close to where I live.

I was working on a vintage bag and one of the designers helped me pick the perfect fabric for it. Everyone was really helpful and I will definitely be going back.

    I got the chance to visit Mayer Fabrics during their annual "Zero Landfill" event and all I can say…read moreis WOW. Despite being held in their back warehouse, everything was clean and organized, and the staff were very helpful in getting my things weighed and loaded in to my vehicle. The "Zero Landfill" event is designed to put materials donated by local area designers, dealerships, businesses, and sales reps in to the hands of crafters, collectors, artists, etc. to upcycle and/or repurpose discontinued or unused samples of various mediums. Offerings included things such as flooring, framing materials, tiles, and all kinds of fabric - all free. At the end, they weigh your haul and tell you how many pounds of materials you saved from the landfill. I am very pleased with my 120 pounds of velvet squares, curtain panels, carpet squares, and various other goodies that I was able to score. Being a curator of textiles, this event was right up my alley. To hear that almost 12,000 pounds of materials were saved from the landfill just at this event was awesome. I cannot wait to make upcycled pillow covers, table cloths, and who knows what else with my new-to-me beauties!

I stopped into Hobby lobby because I knew I could get some good picture frames there. Luckily, the store was having a 50% off discount on all wall frames and photo frames. Hobby Lobby had a huge selection of wall/photo frames to choose from, so I took my time to find the right frames for my pieces of art. I eventually found the frames I wanted, and picked up a decorative item for my house as well. The value of the picture frames was terrific and there were very nice frames in the store. There are not a lot of staff walking around in the store, so I didn't ask anyone for assistance, because I did not really need it. When I checked out at the cashier, the woman was very nice and friendly, and wrapped my picture frames with care to make sure they would not crack or break. I had not been in a Hobby Lobby for quite some time, so I was impressed with the selection of picture frames and other items in the store. They always have a sale each week from what I can tell, and you do get value for your buck. If you love arts and crafts, and need supplies, Hobby Lobby is the store for you. They have everything you need for your projects. It is a great store for the crafty person!

I worked there as a custom framer for over a year and one night I had been called to help with a bathroom incident. I thought to myself "no problem we're a team" As I cleaned up the mess with toilet paper and weak tools provided by the company it took me quite awhile to fully clean the mess. Afterword I got called back to the framing counter for a custom order. I completed the order with a red face as I smelled of feces and then after I asked my manager for permission to go home and shower/change before closing. She said "NO we're understaffed tonight" I pleaded my case as I felt it was inhumane to have me working while smelling like another humans feces. I asked again.. and then again rejected by "Liz". At that point I decided to quit .. I never planned on doing this until such an extreme circumstance. But get this, I went to HR and told them what happened. Just weeks later she was awarded the Store Manager position at Avon. Please be aware of the leadership at this company

They also have a large selection of cotton for quilts, arranged in a way that is easy to navigate. Plus they sell and support multiple sewing machine brands which I imagine makes comparison shopping easier. When you visit, don't miss the clearance area.

I was pleased when they took my call and were friendly to let me know their new procedures for customers. At this point in time, they are limiting occupancy to 3 customers at a time. They also offer pick up orders and they will deliver if you need delivery. The store is well stocked and that is an understatement. They have a vast selection of gorgeous fabrics mostly cottons for making quilts. Examples of quilts decorate the store. They have supplies, a line of high end sewing machines, and quilting kits. Shelves were stocked with all sorts of sewing goodies. They have an abundance of holiday and specialty fabrics. In the side room was an assortment of sale fabrics. Prices were not bad running about $12 per yards for 100 percent cotton. There were quilting kits for about $100 that included the fabric. While I was in the store, they spent time helping other customers and answering their question. They are knowledgeable and passionate about sewing and quilting. The store is located in a strip mall across from Kohl's. There is ample parking. I'll be a regular. Just coming in is inspiring!

Let's remedy that!…read more Full disclosure, I taught myself to quilt at the start of the pandemic and having a degree in memory piece quilting from YouTubeUniversity is where I got my humble start. I then branched out and dipped my toe in to the vast quilting world and quickly discovered my love of bright colors, modern fabrics, fun patterns, quilt kits, and notions...and Crimson Tate has ALL of these things - and MORE! To say it is like my own personal Disney World would be an understatement - and if you get to see the Crimson Tate mascot (Heather herself) during your visit, your dreams DO indeed come true! Granted, the rest of the staff at Crimson Tate is ALSO amazing and lovely and a perfect kind of special so you are in for a treat regardless. But back to my review. Some may say the space is small - I say it is perfectly cozy with SO much goodness packed in to every corner. Pre-curated bundles and kits to take the guess work out? You betcha! Yardage on bolts? GOT 'EM! Fat Quarters in suitcases? CUTE! Scraps in bags tucked away in the corner armoire? YES! Needlepoint? THAT TOO! Tula, Charley Harper, Anna Maria, Ruby Star, Kaffe, even up-and-coming cool designers - allll the good stuff can be found here. Can't find what you need? Ask the staff! They are more than happy to help and they have given me amazing suggestions on several occasions. They even put up with me when I need a random CT hit and go in to just browse. Located on Mass Ave just across from Bottleworks / The Garage - you can find street parking out front or in the parking garage catty-corner from Crimson Tate. Go visit! Tell them I sent ya!
