A cute little quilt shop along downtown Main Street in Anoka. I was in the area for an event and…read morehad some extra time so I decided to stop in and take a peek. The shop feels breezy-- large windows on a corner lot lends a lot of natural lighting and the aisles are wide for ease of shopping. They carry plenty of cotton prints, but I noticed they also have a good selection of minky fabric in many colors. They also have batting, pattern guides, and cutting mats/blocks. Pricing was standard for an independent quilt shop at around $13-15 per yard for cotton and $25 for minky. I was greeted in a friendly manner by an employee when I entered who said to let them know if I needed assistance. They also helped me checkout ahead of someone else who needed the cut counter (I did not). I can see myself stopping in if I'm ever back in the area. :)

Tiny Apple is a great quilt store. Staff is friendly and helpful (Especially Colleen!!) There is a…read morevariety of fabrics and styles to choose from. I think they recently expanded their solids/blenders area which is nice (lots of grunge!). My review is mostly for the class I took - the quilted sneakers. Lisa G. was an AMAZING instructor - super nice and helpful and encouraging. The space set up was awesome - plenty of light, nice work spaces with adjustable chairs and tables, easy access to power and design walls. Its smallish (I think limited to 8) but so very nice. I will definitely check out some of the open sew times and other classes. I also love the "rewards" program. I always have a couple of bucks I can throw towards my next purchase. They do carry some interfacing, foam and notions, but with the loss of Joann I'd love to see more (more thread for sure, more zippers and thingamabobs). And more evening hours!

This is now Gladje!…read more I visited for the first time on Small Business Saturday and was overwhelmed at the space they have - the building seems to go on forever and there are a few small rooms to check out too. Right away we were greeted by a sweet and bubbly employee and told what deals they had happening and she explained a little bit about the place. There's a check out desk near the back of the building and a painter actively working who was also very friendly. They didn't seem at all perturbed by little ones running around, they welcomed a family with little children and weren't nervous about them breaking anything (there's much to look at and potentially break!) Prices were higher but they're all local artists so I am absolutely not complaining. I got a book for my godchild that was signed by the local author as well as a cute travel puzzle for her birthday - I know she'll love it. I would love to check out their classes and wish I was more local to check out their live music on Saturdays too, such a warm and friendly place!

There was a sign for the days tag color sale... as i mentioned blue is 50% off the associate said everything rlse was 25% off. Whoa, the store is on sale? Fantastic. Perusing around i had a good snicker at the several band-aid tins! Been so long ago, i forgot they cane in those!

I certainly don't think itd be a place you could visit weekly for new finds. However, if you like to just look at shit (like I do) then it was pretty fun and there are likely some fun deals to be had. I have a feeling you could bargain with the owners a bit too if you found something you couldn't live without.
