She literally stood around the corner at the back listening to us while we were looking at products. NO - she wasn't trying to be helpful.....she just watched us - I have shopped at Quiltessential many times and have never felt like I was being treated like a thief before this time. Maybe that's how the new staff member is - but it ruined my outlook on the store - will not shop there again, which I find quite sad considering how few quilt stores there are in the area. One staff member has lost the store a couple of customers.

One was quite large, so I had used the valet service where they load it all up for you. I would highly recommend this service. I found Ingrid, Keith and staff to be most helpful. They were exceptionally attentive, prompt service, efficient, friendly and made this a very productive and satisfying experience for me and my quilts turned out amazing. I can't say enough how helpful they were. Exceptional service!!

When we used to live on the south side, this shop was always on my radar. However, it being our…read morepre-wedding, pre-baby era, I never went in. I was always too tempted to buy adorable baby stuff and just horde it away. Not good. However, now that we are expecting the Little Man, and we just happened to be in the area, we decided to stop in. This is my kind of boutique. It's small and quite specialized, and a little on the pricier side, but they have some great stuff. I was particularly impressed with the selection of diaper bags. I've been finding it really hard to find a great looking, functional diaper bag at all, let alone something that's going to work for both me and my husband. They had several in our allotted diaper bag budget that fit the bill. They also had the cuts selection of wooden soother clips. The girl working was very helpful and willing to answer questions while still giving us space to browse on our own, which I appreciate. Some places find it hard to strike that balance. And, if I find they had something I can't get anywhere else, I will definitely kae the trip back to Summerside to pay them a visit. Well done.

Worse there was never an acknowledgement or apology for her actions and she was quick to make accusations. I would have preferred not having wasted my time here! I never leave reviews unless positive but this one I couldn't pass up. If you want quality service not just items look elsewhere. Plenty of other businesses that are happy to welcome new customers. I would have preferred to leave a positive review.

And the selection of toys! Incredible! My daughter was in heaven! Tons of sensory stuff - slime, squishies, glitter wands, a massive selection of Nee-Doh, etc etc. They also sell Schleich figurines, bunch of kits/sets for science, magic, gems, etc, and other "regular" toys. We mainly stayed in the toy section, so we didn't venture over to the hobby side, but it looked like there was tons of stuff. Place was clean and well organized. Ample free parking in the lot outside.

For years, I had no idea there were any options other than Fabricland here in Edmonton, but found…read moreout about Marshall, and had been wanting to get in here for a long time. I don't buy fabric that often, but I happened to be out in this part of town on a Saturday and thought, "Why not?" Years ago, Allan G built me a framed board that I upholstered & added cup hooks to to hang my necklaces in my dressing room on (our 1950s house had NO closet space, so I made one of the bedrooms my IKEA-closeted paradise). However, in my new house, the fabric no longer worked where I wanted to put it. My new bedroom is in silver, gray, and very pale lilac-- sort of Jean Harlow 1930s glamour, so I was looking for some fabric with a nice shimmer or an actual metallic fabric. Found one! Absolutely gorgeous silvery print-- almost like a shantung. My cutter was super friendly and helpful (I can't think in metric). When she asked what I was creating, I had to explain that I had this board, and it was 24 x 26 inches...). When she told me the price I just about fell over, considering the exorbitant prices Fabricland charges. I think I paid around $22.00 for my find. They now have a customer for life, and I'll come back here FIRST before ever spending a dime in another Fabricland.

I have mixed feelings on this one, but overall pretty positive!…read more This is a huuuuuge location and I was psyched to see the variety of products (and nicely organized, to boot!) Downsides: the primary staff member I spoke with about an ottoman wasn't overly friendly and definitely wasn't helpful, but the young man who lent me his measuring tape was a gem. I also found the "ambiance" of this place to be a bit yuck- the lighting was a strange shade of yellow that I think was raining on my parade. Overall I think this is a pretty great place to peruse for new household items and decor, and the prices are always great!

For me, the Butterdome Christmas Craft Sale is a tradition, and I love it! I love meeting the busy vendors, seeing the new or "it" products side-by-side with classics like hand carved wooden toys or home-made fudge. I love the hustle and bustle of people doing their Christmas shopping in one big go, and trying to find my yearly must-gets! The Craft Fair is usually the last week in November or first week in December, so keep it in mind to add to your list of holiday events. Make sure to bring cash!! That's a must. Parking can be tough, the SUB parkade is the best bet, but you can take the LRT! And wear your comfy winter boots, it's a lot of walking! Happy Crafty Holidays!

There's also no scratch n win promotion cards for next season like previous shows. It's very warm in there, so expect to use $2 coat check. Your admission ticket also equals one ballot for their prize draw. There are draws for free admission pre-event on their Facebook page. If you're really keen, they have links that showcase the vendors this season. Vendors offer a large variety of unique crafts, some are similar to each other though. Prices and deals vary depending on the vendors; but keep in mind that unique tends to be more expensive than big box stores. It's mostly the same vendors as previous years, so it's easy to shop if you know what you want... or if you had regretted not buying something from this year, you'll probably get a second chance with the next year's craft sale. It easily gets crowded despite the decent amount of spaces between booths. If you can avoid using a stroller, you'll be able to get around more freely for sure. That being said, the butterdome is wheelchair & stroller accessible, which I appreciate. I also like how most of the food vendors are along the same area. There's always a bunch of samples to be had & popular items to pick up are wild dried mushrooms, butter tarts, bread, and maple products; just to name a few.
