All the typical patterns are available, plus some beautiful, unique, specialty options. Ginny, herself, is not just knowledgeable, but incredibly helpful. She knows the origins of her fabrics and how to solve wardrobe creation quandaries, such as what to use for lining to control wrinkling and which pattern companies create the best-fitting pants patterns. The only problem, as I told her, is that it's all so delicious that her wares could bankrupt a person. It would be worth it.

I think if I had a shop like this in my area, I would probably more seriously consider taking up quilting! The shop is laid out in a pleasing way, with a good variety of fabrics and many beautiful samples of quilts hanging on the walls and also smaller samples at eye level near the fabrics. They had a bunch of books and patterns to peruse (including some regular sewing patterns for like little bags and things), and most impressively, there were banks of quilting machines that I am guessing may be used by the shop customers, including a couple of really large quilting machines! There were customers using the big machines while I was there, which was really cool. The shop ladies seemed really nice as well, and thankfully not hover-y. I will definitely try to stop by again next time I'm in Rochester! Hopefully I will have some projects in mind that I don't yet have a fabric for by then.
