It was not dirty and was filled with GREAT fabric. I enjoyed the discovery process. Everywhere I turned were colors and patterns I love. Jan Leonardo is the owner and she was very friendly and engaged with us.<\/p>\n<p>The front of the shop gave us a taste of what was to come. As soon as we walked in we saw tons of fabric, books, kits, and notions. They were nicely arranged, in my opinion.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_63555\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-63555\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_152029_wm-sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-63555\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_152029_wm-sm-300x187.jpg\" alt=\"Springville Quilt Barn - notions area\" width=\"300\" height=\"187\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_152029_wm-sm-300x187.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_152029_wm-sm-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_152029_wm-sm.jpg 802w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-63555\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Springville Quilt Barn &#8211; notions area<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I think Jan had a lot going on. She was creating kits, serving customers, posting to her website and all the other things that go into owning a quilt shop business.<\/p>\n<p>There were quite a few notions and I don&#8217;t really think I was able to take in all the fabric that was available. It was, mostly, organized by line and somewhat by designer as well. For example, most of the Tilda fabrics were near each other. I saw Tula, Tilda, some Kaffe (and my man, Phil), but lots of other designers as well.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_63559\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-63559\" style=\"width: 225px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_153641_wm-sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-63559\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_153641_wm-sm-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Springville Quilt Barn - Tula Homemade corner\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_153641_wm-sm-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_153641_wm-sm-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_153641_wm-sm.jpg 802w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 85vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-63559\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Springville Quilt Barn &#8211; Tula Homemade corner<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>One thing I noticed is that the shop has older prints from the various designers. For example I saw bolts of Tula Homemade there. Not all are listed on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.etsy.com\/shop\/SpringvilleQuiltBarn?ref=shop-header-name&amp;listing_id=735676565&amp;from_page=listing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">shop website<\/a>, so call if you need more of a specific print.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, there were other bolts in that corner as well. I also saw quite a few panels in the same corner and in other parts of the shop. I am seeing more panels lately. Are they more popular or have always been popular and I just haven&#8217;t noticed them?<\/p>\n<p>FQ packs were everywhere as well.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-63222 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/20240708_153403_wm-sm\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_153403_wm-sm-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Springville Quilt Barn fabric\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-63560\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-63560'>\n\t\t\t\tSpringville Quilt Barn fabric\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/20240708_153408_wm-sm\/'><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240708_153408_wm-sm-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"Springville Quilt Barn fabric - detail\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-1-63558\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-1-63558'>\n\t\t\t\tSpringville Quilt Barn fabric &#8211; detail\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>I loved the long rows of shelving filled with fabric bolts.<\/p>\n<p>I bought some fabric for gifts, but I also bought a half yard pack of Tilda Bloomsville fabric that I have been admiring.
