Unbelievable condescending and rude sales woman. if you want to hear an exasperated sigh to every question you ask and be told that you’re “in the way!” in a very harsh way when simply trying to get help — this may be the shop for you! if you’re interested in being treated with respect, shop elsewhere.Additionally, the sales associate trash talked another fabric store when seeing my tote from them. hateful and unnecessary! i would rather spend my where kindness is valued.

These women are amazing! They have the most fabulous selection of fabric and were incredibly helpful in helping me pick out what I needed for a babys quilt. They could see I was a little apprehensive after not having sewn for many years and they told me about their Thursday sewing class/support group. I just spent 4 very enjoyable hours putting my quilt together with the guidance and support of these wonderful women. They shared all kinds of tips and tricks with me and Im so very grateful. I cant recommend this place highly enough. These women know what they are doing, they are passionate about it and they want to share their knowledge. This really is a fantastic place!

New Pieces has such a wonderful variety of quilting fabrics. Their extensive batik section is fabulous, and they have more Asian and Asian-inspired fabrics than I think you will find anywhere else. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable and work hard to please the customer. Their long-arm quilting service does a brisk business, and the number of repeat customers speaks to the satisfaction quilters have with their work. Their book and magazine selection is also pretty extensive--and easy to navigate. And they are open on Sundays! My only reservation is that they dont carry patterns.

Great selection of fabrics! Unusual things you dont find everywhere. Good classes, although I wish they had more. Lots of Kaffe Fassett, which are my favorites!

I am thoroughly in love with this fabric shop. As a historical costume maker, I was incredibly impressed by the quality and price. The selection is exquisite! And Ive never met a nicer staff. So helpful, encouraging, and fun!

Welcome to quilter heaven - and not just for experienced sewists, either. This is where I got my start with an improv block class with Stacy Sharman. New Pieces has a whole range of classes for beginners to expert and are very happy to encourage you along no matter where your current level.So, the fabrics!! Such a great, gorgeous collection, especially their section of Asian fabrics. Fun choices of fat quarters and remnants on discount too. At the front of the store, youll find thread, cutting tools, books and magazines, even sewing machines.I have also had excellent experience with New Pieces having them quilt something for which Ive created a top (and bottom) but didnt want to quilt together. They have a fabulous long-arm machine in the back and you can choose from many patterns. The staff is super thoughtful and collaborative with me when I bring in a piece for this kind of service. For example, I did a quilt featuring some shirt and jeans pockets in the top, and they were careful to never sew a pocket closed while doing the quilting. They will also do the binding if needed.
