Quilter’s Hollow

Quilter’s Hollow had been on my mind after my friend, Cyndi, mentioned she had stopped there. Last Friday I had to take my mom to a doctor appointment near her house. We spent some time at her house, which was depressing. We also went to the doctor appointment, which took forever. I insisted that we visit Quilter’s Hollow, a quilt store in Stockton, as a reward.

I think I have been to this store before, but I couldn’t find a review. I always thought my mom didn’t like this shop so I never pushed to go. Friday, however, I needed a fabric fix, so I forced her to go with me. I said she could stay in the car.

I liked the shop. They had A LOT of fabric, which is just what I needed. The shop also had a lot of different kinds of fabric. They also had a full selection of Kaffe fabrics including LOTS of Philip Jacobs prints. I saw lots of Tula, some from previous years, but not super old (no more of that fun octopus print I used in the City Sampler). I also saw Tilde, some novelty prints like Disney Princesses and plenty of solids. I bought some Art Gallery Nature Elements that I had never seen in a quilt shop – only online – before. I gobbled a few of them up, especially yardage in colors I had never seen.

The first thing I checked out was the notions area. It is huge! Lots of things related to embroidery. I had had a discussion with my mom a few days before about Jelly Roll rugs. I noticed that they had the rolls of batting used to make the jelly roll rugs. They didn’t have replacements for Sewline pencils, which I needed.

The shop had a lot of thread! It was amazing. I know a lot of it was for embroidery, but it was still great to see. It’s so hard to find a variety of thread you can see in once place.

As mentioned, I was excited to see all of the Kaffe fabrics. It was a really good selection. I saw the iris design by Philip Jacobs in a shop once before and used it for my aunt’s bag, but I haven’t seen other colorways before. This shop had the colorway with the light background. I now have plenty of iris fabric to make bags for my aunt. I also saw a lot KFC fabric that I hadn’t seen before.

I really couldn’t take in all the different fabrics were there. I really just let yardage catch my eye and bought some of them.

It turns out my mom likes the shop. She said she might have been mad about something related to the shop when she talked to me about it before. I’ll probably be visiting again!

I took a little time to look at their online shop. Holy Smokes!! They have a LOT of fabric on their online store. I am not sure if this is in addition to what’s in the shop or all the fabrics in the shop. Their online store is well worth a look, if you are never in Stockton.
