Customer Service needs some serious help. If you are purchasing something small, like buttons or…read morethread, be prepared to wait until everyone who walks in the store that wants fabric is serviced, even if you arrived before them. Smaller purchase = spending less money = not a priority = longer wait. The selection of buttons is very small, and many of the tubes of buttons are down to the last one and haven't been replaced. Strangest of all his the fact that the proprietor, despite selling fabric, doesn't seem to know her fabrics. I brought in a jumper for my daughter, and she kept arguing with me that it was 100% cotton. I explained that it was actually mostly polyester, she said I was wrong. We looked at the tag -- 95% polyester. We are all about supporting small local businesses, but this one could really use some help :/

Visited this cute little Oakland yarn shop on a busy Saturday. It was toward the end of the 2025…read moreBay Area Yarn Crawl, plus they were having a trunk show. I've wanted to check out this shop for many years and wasn't disappointed. They have lots of beautiful yarn in many different fibers, weight, and colors. You can even pick out specific natural colors to dye it. They also offer fabric, books, bags, and tons of cute accessories for knitting and sewing. They were prepared for the crowds-- there were many friendly staff members on the floor offering assistance. One person had made stitch markers with the evil eye symbol and was handing them out. They also had free CocoKnits tape measures, stickers, and knitting patterns for this special occasion. I really enjoyed my visit.

As an avid quilter who drove over C 200 miles on a quilt shop hop recently, it was nice to find the…read moreCotton Patch Quilt Shop. It is filled with tons of beautiful quilting fabrics to choose from, as well as quilting books. My Tesla car did not fully self drive directly to the shop, it got me stuck in the back of a parking lot next door, from which I had to carefully back out from the long driveway with assistance from a passerby. However, I arrived in one piece to the Cotton Patch. The quilt shop had anything you might need for quilting, either as an early quilter or an experienced quilter. They offer quilting classes that you can sign up to take. They have a fine selection of BERNINA sewing machines and embroidery machines in a separate room inside the shop. I needed some recommendations about finishing a Hawaiian t-shirt quilt that I finished the blocks, and an experienced quilter that happened to be there, gave me some wonderful ideas written on a piece of scratch paper as to how I should do the sashing around my blocks in the quilt. She also helped me to pick out two complementary colors that would work well with all the colors of my 25 finished quilt blocks. I purchased 5.5 yards of cotton quilt fabrics and went home happily, with an idea as to how to put all of my blocks together in a finished quilt. I signed up for their store newsletter, and I look forward to getting tips and tricks from the quilt shop personnel who write it up monthly. The staff mentioned that they also participate in a quilt hop as well later in the year, and I look forward to hearing more about it. Do check out this shop, there are many sample quilts on display to look at for ideas. Parking is available in the back of this store, it's going down an alley right next to the shop.

A cancer diagnosis put me off for a year during treatment and then not being able to get someone to call me for another couple months.

I have heard about Discount Fabrics through so many Facebook sewing and quilting groups, so of…read morecourse stopping at their San Francisco location was high on my list as I was passing through the area. While I came for the quilting cotton, I left with a completely different find... I purchased several yards of ripstop nylon for a future DIY stuff sack or lightweight outdoor pouch. The store is so, so large but honestly impressively organized, even with *huge* rolls of fabric everywhere. I loved that they have a public restroom (always a plus when fabric shopping turns into fabric hunting). The prices were excellent and the staff was helpful. If you're a crafter/sewist of any kind, this is a great place for a good deal!

She even let me use a giant table to lay my quilt on and sew when I could not get anything done at home. It meant so much to me, and always will! I have bought so many beautiful pieces of cloth here. Shout out to Sassy thread and dream cotton batting, which is sold here. *chefs kiss* If you are unsure about quilting thread or batting, look no further. Also, the rotating exhibitions here are worth a visit aside from shopping. Bay quilts is truly a community hub for quilters, and anyone who loves to sew in the Bay Area! Come here and enjoy art, make friends, and make beautiful things.

I ended up putting one on hold (for a day), which he honored for 2 days! He personally gave me a call to check my interest in the piece, as there was another customer interested (whom he had informed abt the hold). I truly appreciated this effort. I didn't end up purchasing since the color I was looking for didn't seem to be on the floor. I don't know if this spot had the widest selection, but I think they have some beautiful quality items that won't break the bank. Definitely stop in! I'll be back :)

Drove over to fabrix on a Monday and it happened to be the Clement street fair at the exact same time, luckily I found parking really quickly and proceeded to go inside to find my felt and embroidery supplies for the felt ornaments I'd been wanting to make for Christmas this year. I had NO clue what I was looking for and I'm so grateful to the staff for helping me find everything and being patient with me throughout the whole process. It was quiet in the shop at first but quickly became busy, but I honestly didn't mind waiting in line for my turn because the staff gave the same amount of time to me as they did to everyone in front of me in line. I was kind of surprised at how inexpensive the whole purchase was, after she showed me my total, because I hadn't checked the prices of anything. Most of the fabrics was labeled with a price but it's one of those stores that has so much inventory that it's not easy to see the prices of everything if you're someone like me with awful vision and a stubbornness not to get glasses Anyway, I highly recommend this local fabric store!! It's perfect for basically all of your fabric crafting needs!!
