My mother has an addiction. With every trip to any location,…read morefor whatever reason....she must find the nearest quilt shop and spend money on something I bet she already has in a storage bin in the room she had to remodel to stack the storage bins in. She even has some fancy pants quilting machine that is damn near too big to fit in the room its housed in. When this ginormous freak of nature she calls a sewing machine was installed, the poor bastard that delivered it, ahem installed it, had to take off the screen to the window and move the parts in through that opening, because the DOOR WAS NOT BIG ENOUGH....its a damn good thing her sweat shop, I mean sewing room is on the bottom floor. but I digress. So, the quilt shop...its what you expect in a quilt shop and for the uninitiated please allow me to describe. There is always tons of fabric, thats a given as quilts are made of fabric and quilt is in the name of the business. There are always samples of the kits and projects available for sale hanging in every available piece of real estate, on the walls, hanging from the ceiling, on shelves and counter tops. There is usually a low whisper of music from some unseen radio near the cutting table. As for the staff, I've seen various ladies at these shops. You have the token older lady, most likely the owner or mother of the owner who stands guard in these places and runs the register. Along with her you have a middle aged lady who runs the joint. She could be the owner, or store manager and is either extremely friendly and genuinely interested in "where are you from" and "can I help u find something", or would rather you don't ask questions just give me your money and get out. In the back there is always a bunch of desks assembled into a work area. The quilt shop will host events where ladies such as my mother (ladies with a passion for quilting, not the lady whom is sweet as sugar to her grandkids and I make sure to tell them "thats not the lady I grew up with.") will gather and discuss the finer points of long arm quilting, needle point or other tasks in the sewing arts. I've been to more than a few of these places. I even seriously considered opening a quilt shop to give my mom a place to go, keep her off the street and away from drugs; the boys club wont let her in. If my description is a stereo type, than this place fits the description perfectly. Theirs are the ladies who are friendly, not the frazzled stressed out kind. I'm looking for the quilt shop that figured it out and puts in a man cave in the back with a TV, lazy boy and cooler full of beer for the man-folk. That would be awesome. Word.

this used to be a wonderful shop because Ken is the opposite of many snobby quilt shop owners. now…read morehe has a team of snobby workers who guard the front of the shop and treat you like you are stupid and do t know what you are doing. if you have a simple question or go in there to buy something for your machine, you first have to convince the bitches up front that you actually know how to sew and your machine meets their standards. I will be taking my business online.

I took a quilting class here. The whole class was the owner talking about her quilts, showing them…read moreto us (some very nice work,) talking about her knowledge of fabric designers, etc. This ended up being a beginning quilt class where you bring your sewing machine the first time and never again. We watched HER do things instead. I had been looking for a more in depth beginning class, so not what I expected at all. There was lots of chatter on the break about how disappointed we were. A four hour class, too. There were 6 meetings. Definitely not for bare bones beginners. I did learn some things, like helpful ideas on choosing fabrics for a quilt but not much more. We had been told that 25 fat quarters were required for a great sampler. I bought them at her shop because she said she would help me choose, but she ended up choosing most of them and I ended up not using a lot of them. $$$ wasted. That's on me. I should have spoken up about it. I've gone back a few times for this or that, small things, but it seems the owner is not interested anymore. The size of the shop has been cut in half, not much room, and her taste in fabric is not mine. I'd rather drive to Fort Collins to the Fig Leaf, where it's bright, pleasant, great choice of fabrics, and the folks working there are interested in what you're looking for, are helpful, and don't insult what you're doing. It's a pleasant experience and worth the drive. On the plus side, I was motivated enough by what the owner at Around the Block was doing to go home and find videos showing how to do it on YouTube. So there's that. I feel bad being so honest about my experience but there you go.

Excellent customer service and love the pre-cut FQ's and that you can buy FQ to be cut and don't always need to buy half yards. New quilter and really appreciate the help!

I love that they're taking covid seriously when many in this city are not. Masks required to enter - thank you!!!
