Located in the small town of Espanola about 30 miles from Interstate 25, this bright and cheerful shop was a wonderful break on the drive from Los Alamos to my sister’s build site in Caliente, Nevada. Owned by Julie Martinez, there were classes in progress when I arrived and wonderful fabrics everywhere. The ladies in the class were obviously enjoying themselves, and happily showed off what they were making.
Fabrics here tend to the bright and cheerful, with a whole lot of larger prints for Stack-n-Whack. There were also southwest themed prints, and a great selection of solids and blenders to match to the prints. Batiks and smaller prints are also available. Wide backing are on hand in both 108″ cotton and 90″ Minkee to complete your project. Check out the precuts, including Jelly Rolls, Charm Packs, Fat Quarter packs, and the cute little 2 1/2″ square packs called Candies. There are also panels to enjoy. All in all, there are over 2,000 bolts of fabric on hand, so plan to be tempted!
Samples are hung throughout the shop, several made with panels. I’m often asked for ideas as to how to use panels; this shop has both patterns and kits using panels, and they ship if you can’t get into the shop. Completed quilts are also sold, so if you need one more quickly than you can make one, do check them out.
Long arm services are available in both edge to edge and custom designs. Please call the shop for pricing and lead times to have your quilt finished.
I would plan to be here for at least twenty to forty minutes to enjoy everything.
