Since I love looking @ different types of fabrics, yarn, and needle crafts, decided to visit here…read more So glad I did! This shop is really cool and has a lot to offer. Excellent quality of all their products! Unique fabrics that are gorgeous. The needlework kits, cross stitch and embroidery, were very unique too. Sashiko products are also sold here too, which is what I decided to purchase some of. Some of the items for sale here I had never seen anywhere else. The staff person working was knowledgeable, helpful, and nice. I also thought the prices were good because of the high quality of the items. Will visit here again on my next trip to Evanston.

I optimistically brought a bag for fabrics, but I unfortunately couldn't find anything quite to my taste. However, they did a great job colorcoding all of the different fabrics. The store is fairly organized considering how many donations come through. I really appreciate how they even use different drawer systems and cabinets for different subcategories of items. I do think most of the supplies would be great for educators or children: lots of odds and ends that would be put to excellent use given the right creative minds. I walked away emptyhanded, but I imagine someone would love the vintage postcards, various stamps, or Nat Geo magazines I flipped through. There's some street parking nearby, and they have a small private lot. Be sure to check their hours and any updates due to weather on their Instagram!

I myself am a big stationary fan, so I was quite pleased to see how many stamps, scrapbooking materials and stickers they had. Pricing can be quite good, but some items can feel a little pricey for their secondhand nature. However, the WasteShed is a nonprofit with a noble cause, so I will give them plenty of leeway. Nice place to spend some time looking for your next craft project.

I would like to update my review. I did have the sofa redone at your shop. We discussed ad nauseam…read morethat it would be a comfortable soft sofa and that the velvet would not attract as much dust and lint as it does. You said it was specifically a better product. I had another chair recovered in velvet at Calico Corners in Wilmette and it does not attract dust and lint at all so it is not necessarily a function of all velvets. You were not nearly as helpful as you sound here on yelp when I had these complaints after the sofa was done. You' were completely unresponsive and refused to assist any further. At minimum, the sofa should've been comfortable and you definitely did mislead me on your product.

If I could give zero stars, I would. Lord's upholstery is the worst I have ever experienced, and…read morethe materials they use are of very low quality. Don't bother telling them you are not happy, the owner didn't want to listen and refused to come and take a look. She sent some workers out with a steamer, as if that would correct the incorrectly measured and poorly constructed couch issues. I did send back the decorative silk pillows because the internal cases they had sewn to cover the pillow itself were made several inches too large, and you could see them bunching under the silk. Instead of cutting them down and sewing them correctly, they just reached in and rolled the excess up. That worked until the first person leaned against them, then they just unrolled. By the way, when they were returned I was told they had been "redone": I guess they didn't think we would notice that all they did was roll the excess up. The owner is very rude, and completely unwilling to take any responsibility. We had the couch back for about six months, only sat on it a couple of times, and it already needs to be reupholstered again. I would not recommend them under any circumstances.

I'm thrilled that the knitting store, Rib & Stitch, relocated here in Winnetka, nestled on a little…read moreHubbard Woods side street east of Green Bay road. A welcome surprise for me is how comfortable the owner makes me feel whenever I come to the store. A great big work table and a couple couches allow anyone come in, sit down, work, or just lay out the extraordinary materials you might want to try. Besides the fact that the owner acquires the most gorgeous yarns and materials, she is also so generous with her time and creative ideas. There is no pressure to sign up for classes, which I really appreciate. With my insane schedule and random knitting inspirations, I would never be able to keep up with any class. Although I seem to knit when a project pops in my head, plenty of other knitters would find the owner of R&S could steer them to any number of wonderful projects. Although she has placed many of her own inspired creations around the room and in the window, offering an assortment of ideas, she enthusiastically will help you with whatever project you choose to do. Just come look at the gorgeous skeins of wool around the room and you will NOT leave this store either empty-handed or lacking for ideas.

The store is new so there isn't a lot of yarn there yet, but it's very organized and reminds me of a high end boutique. There was a lot of knitting samples, but no crochet samples which was the only bummer. I will definitely be returning to this store!
