This was by far the greatest concept I've ever come across!

We love thrifting, right?  But this is a step above --- this is a  high end, quilt shop quality fabric REVIVAL!

We arrived on a sunny Saturday morning ---Jessica picked me up at my hotel and brought me to the shop for a “Breakfast with Bonnie” and a meet and greet before going over to where our class was held.  There were so many in the class, 51 –that the shop classroom couldn't contain us all!

There was a lovely breakfast set up, continental style, and quilters were milling about, oohing and aahhing and purchasing and I  was swept right up into their excitement.

Beautiful fabrics ready to be petted!

Pieces less than a yard are wound on small bolts on the top shelves –if you want those, you need to take the whole piece.

The larger bolts are fabrics more than a yard – you can have cuts made off of these in any size you desire….and of course Fat Quarters are plentiful!

And the pricing?

Yeah, Baby!  Get that Credit Card Smoking!

Fabrics are sorted by style, so you will find batiks in one area, polka dots in another, and plaids in yet another area so it is easy to find what you want.

Other fabrics are simply sorted by color families, making it easy to match your project for that right shade!

I headed straight for the neutrals!  I ALWAYS need these!

The shop also carries gently used books at greatly discounted prices.

You will love the samples that hang on the walls!  There are classes and gatherings – and yes, even a Bonnie Hunter club for you to join ---sew those scraps up, and buy some more!

Fat Quarter Packs and Fat Eighth Bundles!

Bright light and wide open spaces make for easy browsing!

Our ladies had a great time wandering and selecting before class!

It was an exciting morning getting to know each other before we headed over to the workshop!

And if knitting is your thing?  We’ve got that covered too!  You will find lovely knitting supplies in the front of the shop for when you feel like switching gears.

If you are anywhere near Englewood, Colorado –Make sure to make a visit to Wooden Spools!
