I've always heard good things about this place so I wanted to have a baby blanket embroidered for…read moremy sister. I showed my idea of exactly what I wanted to the woman who helped me and she said that they couldn't match the fonts I wanted exactly but they could use similar ones and I said that was fine. When I picked up the blanket the fonts they had chosen were not similar to what I had originally showed them, the words were not centered on the blanket itself, the words were not centered against each other (visually speaking or measurement wise) and the embroidery was significantly smaller than what I had asked for. So I took the blanket back and the woman I spoke to this time (I think she was the owner) basically told me I was wrong and that my design was fine and I was trying to take advantage of the business because I wanted my money back. My mistake was assuming that when they chose from the fonts they have they would have lined things up to make them look straight and centered. I also should have asked to see what fonts they could do before I trusted them to embroider the blanket.

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!
