Finally, somone who gets it. When I go shopping for fabric I want to see the collection all together. I don't like having to go tracking down the fabrics.
And I am the opposite. I love the hunt, the creativity, and I hate the collections being together because ir feels as if I am being forced to only purchase what is presented in a collection. It's too cookie-cutter.
@@sharontabor7718 I like a little of both. When the lines are new, I think it’s great that they are together. as new lines come in I know that some shops then integrate the fabric into the rest of the shop and put in a new collection. That works for me.
@@sharontabor7718 I one million percent agree with you! Sometimes another fabric line has the most perfect fabric to go with your project. I am not a fan of cookie cutter quilts because then everyone's is the same.
I prefer them by color too. It is nice to see the collection together if it is new or online so I know the colors match, but my favorite quilt shop is all organized by color. And, I can match and create to my hearts content.
I shop by color too. I'm getting used to having the way I do things phased out but it's kind of ironic that it's being phased out of an old art like quilting.
I agree. Most of the time I only like about 3 or 4 things in a collection. The rest are eh.... kind of prints to me--nothing I'd purchase on a whim. What can I say except I must be old school. But I see the dilemma that shops face. I also wonder if this is just a passing phase; time will tell.
As a former shop owner and Top 10 shop it is important to create an experience for people so they can see themselves making the quilts. Rows of bolts are not inspiring and when things are too busy people will walk right by. It takes more work but display is everything for a brick and mortar shop
There is no wrong way to do this. It looks beautiful as always. My struggle will be I don’t usually shop by collection so I will have to look through everything to fine the colors or prints that match where I headed in my pattern. I guess that cleaver marketing on your part. 😉
Same here. I couldn't care less about collections lol. I just want a good variety of patterns and fabric colors. Main reason why I've never bought by collection. It's too 'matchy matchy' for me. But this is great for people who care about having a specific collection or specific designer.
I like to see the fabrics in a collection together. That doesn't mean I will use each of the fabrics in a project. Sometimes I prefer to use a more subtle blender than the collection offers. I actually enjoy picking my fabrics from different sections, it can be a pleasant surprise.
Many sewists and quilters struggle with choosing fabrics that coordinate, so putting the fabrics into coordinating collections simplifies that process. Kudos to you for understanding the issue and working towards resolving it.
My all time favorite quilt store where I shopped in person each month had the outer walls organized by color. There was a CW section, a 30s section, and a WOW section, which catered to their customers. Otherwise, every new collection had its own circular display in the middle of the floor, all the pieces together. When most bolts were gone remaining ones were integrated into the outer walls, and the newest fabrics took center stage. Staff knew their stock so well, I never had trouble finding anything!
Looks awesome Teancum! A job well done Sew Yeah. This would be a perfect shopping trip for me. I know what I would be looking for and wouldn't have to ask for help. Thanks for showing us around.🤩🥰
Hey - I feel your pain!! I’m a retired cataloging librarian/craft seamstress. Was once involved of culling out all the biographies from the adult non- fiction shelves to create a stand-alone collection….a change in approach that our patrons requested. Our building housed about 90,000 volumes. Pulling books, re-cataloging them, relabeling, sorting and rehousing them was a daunting task, but it made our users happy - so we did it for the greater good! Keep smiling and carry on!!💕
Love the way the store looks and now it will be easier to spend more money when we are there 😢😮. The only bad thing is after all the time I have spent at your gorgeous store, now when I walk in I won’t look like a big shot knowing where everything is. You guys are simply the best🎉
I was at the store this past weekend for the first time (I live 300 miles away).... I found it so easy to navigate and loved seeing all the collections together. Bought a bunch of things too!
That is fabulous! I love the fact that you have put all the items together for one grouping. I wish more stores would do that. Instead I have to hunt all over the place for what I want. Good job guys!!!!
This is prefect brilliant idea. I wish my local quilt store set theirs this way. I hate asking staff if they have the collection I’m looking for. It’s also helpful if they kept the brand together so it’s easier to find fabrics that could work well together. Especially because I have a very active child who keeps me busy and I don’t have the time to look around thru all the fabrics and hunt for the fabric name. I would definitely buy more if they had this form of set up for sure.
I never even knew there was such a thing as collections until I went to a quilt show and admired some fabric. The lady goes oh that’s Tula pink, of course! I’m like tulip who the what? I’m sure he’s on the right track for his store, I just don’t personally ever buy collections. I go for the colors! But you gotta do what is right for your customers.
Oh my gosh! I love the way you rearranged the fabric! I wish I could visit your shop. The former quilt shop that was here (on Florida's east coast) used to break up the collection after a month. Whenever I asked about the coordinating fabrics, I was told I would have to look for them throughout the store, which was a huge store. I never could find what I was looking for and found it so frustrating. I'm happy to see the changes you made. I think it's great that you put the precuts next to the collection. You did a great job!!
Wish my store was big enough to do this with all our collections. We keep them together as long as possible but when they start getting thin/old we split out the solids into the colour wall and keep the themes together such as floral, cats, dogs, baby, kids, licensed…
I think with the invention of precuts it changed how lines are designed. Ya’ll have your work cut out for you, and I remember you asking this question on social media. your customers will spend more money this way 👏👏👏
I am old school, want to create my own collections. I don't want someone else deciding what colors I want to combine. I hope it all works for you. The shop looks great I'll be sure to take the tour.
Not everybody is a Graphic Designer, where they can naturally coordinate fabrics, by going higgeldy piggeldy around the store, picking and choosing colours and fabrics that 'go together'; Our quilt group started in 2000...used to drive us NUTS, going into quilt shops, where nothing was on shelves with their friends, their cousins, their neighbours... meaning nothing was together in the original intended collection! We had to run all over the store to find the Lines of Fabric that were curated/created together by the designer! This was 24 years ago! We never bought fabric by 'colorway' for a quilt! We were always looking for a Line of fabric, especially to start a new project.... the time for looking for fabric by colorway, is usually at the end of a project, when needing something for a small thin border, binding, or backing.
These days people have been programmed to let the designers think for them. People used to mix and match by colors and styles that they liked. In a way I find it curious as people don't do that with the clothes they wear - they tend to choose a top and pants or skirt for themselves and don't necessarily buy what is on a given mannequin.
There are some that are organized that way, but I know Ann Arbor sewing should listen! I went in there looking for a particular line of fabric and they said oh it is all mixed in. I’m sorry I don’t have two hours to sort through the fabric.
I wish I was near your story but if I were I would spend, spend, spend. So that’s good and not so good, lol. Best of luck to you. Showing customers what they can do with each and every product is VITAL in modern sewing and crafting!!!!! You get IT!!!!
YES! YES! YES!!! I've only been in one other quilt store that is organized by collection and it was awesome!! Unfortunately, it's also 3 hours away! I get to go there once a year when I visit my sister and it's almost halfway so it's a great resting point. Great job and your store looks yummy!!!🤩
O wow! Good move. I love when a shop keeps fabric collections grouped together and I can’t wait to come see the changes and shop the next time I visit my granddaughter in Henderson.
I love the makeover and find the shelves more interesting. Collections aren’t necessarily pre-packaged; you can also buy yardage or fats. If I ever make it to your area I’d love to stop by!
Y’all are “sew” sweet to do the change. But some places I have shopped don’t have their new collections together very long after a short preview up front. Either way, I would stay a long time just to check out everything. Continued success!
Much better! That’s how it’s done at Quiltique! I love both your stores…before the Pandemic, I took a class with Camille Roskelly at Quiltique, met Me & My Sister, (Barb and Mary), Tula Pink, Angela Walters, (Trunk Shows),even Kaffe Fassett! Plus they taught me how to quilt, along with TH-cam. Your store is huge! But Quiltique is much closer to me, so I can go there more often…😊You carry more machines too! I’m lucky to be a Quilter in Henderson!😊
I preferred the layout as it was. It was fantastic to see all the fabrics of one colour together. I never quilt by collection, preferring to choose my own combinations. I think I'm in the minority but I don't want someone else choosing my fabric selection for me.
I did work with fabrics for years and yes changing all those bolts around is hard work. However, what a huge difference in how customer-friendly the finished products are with the pre-cuts and fat quarters right alongside.
Very nice. I may buy a yard from one collection then go around the store to find more fabric to go with that piece. My eye catches on what makes my heart go pitter patter! Take care. Marion in Oregon.
You and your family have done a beautiful job! What a big undertaking that this was! I am sure that those who visit your store will appreciate it so much. Maybe one day I will be able to visit!❣️
I wish that more shops would do this! And I wish that I was local so that I could shop there in person. Well, I’ve been to Vegas many times but that was pre-quilting. It looks great!
Thank you for this may I also say it is good for people like me who see colour differently, I could walk into your store and I know whatever fabric I choose from that section would go together. Xx
I wish more stores would do this. I've often wished I could buy the coordinating fabrics but assumed they didn't have them. Now I know they may have just put them on other shelves. But I can't walk the entire store hoping to recognize one on a full shelf.
I don't quilt but love your videos. I can't even sew but I can darn my socks LOL. Also come from a long line of seamstresses but still can't sew. I do admire those who can
Love it by collection, and hopefully, the collections are grouped by designer/group. My local shop I have to go through the whole color collection to find my my favorite designers. Then some of their fabrics are in the novelty section. Takes forever. You can still grab a bolt or FQ to walk around and play with the colors and mixing collections/designers. Win win 🎉
Yes, Yes, Yes!! I buy by collection, and when I was in your store, I bought off a shelf where you had the collection together and found that when I was looking for another set of fabrics, they were scattered amongst the color collections.
So user friendly! Would love to visit when we come that way. Just something about actually seeing the fabrics (color and thickness) in person compared to online
I haven't been into the store since you've rearranged things. I'll have to stop in soon. Personally, I liked being able to shop by color, but I'm open to this new arrangement!
I love shopping and organizing by color, but I think your plan is wise. The designers have done the work to make a cohesive collection for us. They sell better this way especially for all off us with CSS (complete set syndrome). We won’t buy just one or two pieces now that we can see the whole collection. 😂 My local shop has a Tula Pink wall. It gets me every dang time!
The cool part of this is, for people who don't want everything bunched together, you still have the option of browsing. We "browsers" haven't lost anything. Win-Win all around!!!
I hate taking the creativity out of choices. I son't want to wander a store looking for a color to match something I already have. When it's by color I can go directly to the section I am looking for. Obviously, I am in the minority because it looks messy to me. I hate someone else making/forcing choices for me because the fabric us part of a collection - It's too cookie-cutter. This is why I quit shopping. We are dumbing down human creativity.
I guess I'm in the minority. I never shop by collection. I like to choose my own combinations. My fabric at home is also organized by color. My sister, on the other hand will be thrilled.
At my LQS, collections are kept together for a while until they are no longer 'new', then they are separated by color. If you ask for assistance we can usually help you find the rest of the collection throughout the store or other coordinating fabrics based on your preference.
Love the idea of setting up by collection. Unfortunately I live on the east coast & can't get to your store to see it all in person. But will check your store online.
Ok, I get it, a full collection is great, but I like your other method more. I guess it all depends on the quilter. When choosing blues I like to see several tones together. I love all you guys do, so in the end great job 👏
YES! By collection is the way to go -- easy peasy for beginners to pick up all of the fabrics for one project without having to hunt all over the store to find the right color to match the rest.
I'm sure the manufacturers are very happy with you. They don't want anyone to try mix-and-match -- they want you to buy ONLY their fabric from one line.
Thanks for watching! If you liked this, take a tour of our NEW quilt shop: th-cam.com/video/bCwF7beWxQA/w-d-xo.html
Wonderful ❤! I'd like to move in your quiltshop and live there for the rest of my life !😊😂
Makes me happy. I did not like shopping all over for fabrics. So I would always buy a
Kit. Thank you!❤
Hi! How did you plan your redo? Did you need design help?

I don't make quilts by a collection. I prefer shopping by color. But, I understand that many quilters like the collections.
We wish we could do both! Lol
I agree. To make it harder, unless its a theme, I don't like prints. 70 % of my stash, is solid colors.
I shop by color as well. However, I don’t quilt but I love making garments from cotton fabrics. Sadly it can’t go both ways 🤷🏻♀️
I shop by color too. I'm getting used to having the way I do things phased out but it's kind of ironic that it's being phased out of an old art like quilting.

Yes! For those of us who find it challenging to find a coordinating fabric for a fabric collection...this is the answer!
Thank you!

Love the new layout, all the same fabrics from a particular line all together great work😊
Thanks so much!
Isn't funny how times have changed? Before you just wanted to see the colors together, now it's the whole fabric line! LOL Smart move!
It's hard trying to keep up with the trends!
Looks so great!

Thank you!!!
Awesome 😎 Nice change, I love it ❤ Now I really need to make time to fly to Las Vegas and visit your Fabulous store 🤩🤩
Please do!
Been to your shop. Beautiful. Now, it’s even more functional. Loved those color waves, though.
Thanks so much 😊
Love, love, love what you'all have done to your store. I hope more stores follow your concept.
I hope so too!
Great idea! I can’t wait to shop this store in September when I visit Vegas to see my BFF of over 50 years. 😁
Yes!! See you very soon ❤️
I love it! It makes it so easy to choose the color palette!
Good to hear that!
I love the makeover and find the shelves more interesting. Collections aren’t necessarily pre-packaged; you can also buy yardage or fats. If I ever make it to your area I’d love to stop by!
Very true!
Its perfect! What a beautiful store. Id love to visit someday...in the Winter though. Congratulations 👏🎉
You mean you don't want to visit Las Vegas when it's 110 degrees outside?! 😂
@@SewYeah Naw.. I'll pass on your heat. We have enough here 🥵 I would love to visit one day though! I want a new machine🤗 See you all tonight 👋
You can never please all of us. 😊😊
😂😂😂🤩🤩
I was visiting Las Vegas in Oct and loved your store. There isn't a store as good as yours in my area of FL.
Why thanks for those kind words!
What a fantastic idea! Works so well for the customer!
Thank you!
I love the new concept! I am not near any of your stores, but I still appreciate what you’ve done!
This is great! I wish our shops did the same thing!
Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching!!
I love it!!!! Wish I lived near your store. I could spend hours and hours there looking at all the collections! Congratulations on a job well done!!
Thank you so much!
Super smart move. Love how it looks and putting the precuts with the collections…genius!
Thanks!!!🤩🤩
Thank you! It’s been one of the reasons I might have gone cross town to shop. Having the lines together makes it so much easier now. I’ll be back!
See you soon!

Wonderful!!!!
Great job SYQ team! It looks great.
Thank you!
Awesome. I prefer having the collection together, it definitely makes it easier and one might check out more due to the time saved!
We appreciate your feedback on this!!
I like to shop collections and panels. Great idea.
Sew much work… It’s gorgeous!!
A labor of love💕💕 Thank you!!
Very nice. I may buy a yard from one collection then go around the store to find more fabric to go with that piece. My eye catches on what makes my heart go pitter patter! Take care. Marion in Oregon.
You and your family have done a beautiful job! What a big undertaking that this was! I am sure that those who visit your store will appreciate it so much. Maybe one day I will be able to visit!❣️
WE hope to see you soon!!!
❤❤❤
We will be in Vegas in December and can’t wait to shop. ❤
I loved this video! And yes, seeing the collections together is better😊
Yay! Thank you!
Ohhh, I like this. Will be a great help to me in picking fabrics.Thank you!
I wish that more shops would do this! And I wish that I was local so that I could shop there in person. Well, I’ve been to Vegas many times but that was pre-quilting. It looks great!
Maybe one day!
Yeah. It's about time someone listened ❤
Beautiful job!
Thank you! Cheers!
The best!!!!! I'll have to find you guys one day!
👍👍😊😍
Yes please!
Yay! Thanks for the hard work! I love shopping the collections!

It’s been a whirlwind watching how this came together I’m still working on finding stuff but it’s a learning process

We would love for you to visit some day soon!! 😊
I don't quilt but love your videos. I can't even sew but I can darn my socks LOL. Also come from a long line of seamstresses but still can't sew. I do admire those who can
Thanks for watching
Love it by collection, and hopefully, the collections are grouped by designer/group.
My local shop I have to go through the whole color collection to find my my favorite designers. Then some of their fabrics are in the novelty section. Takes forever.
You can still grab a bolt or FQ to walk around and play with the colors and mixing collections/designers.
Win win 🎉
💕💕Thank you for watching!
I'm so excited to come see everything 😮
Cool video. You guys are awesome! The finished look is fantastic! TFS
Thanks so much!!

I love shopping and organizing by color, but I think your plan is wise. The designers have done the work to make a cohesive collection for us. They sell better this way especially for all off us with CSS (complete set syndrome). We won’t buy just one or two pieces now that we can see the whole collection. 😂 My local shop has a Tula Pink wall. It gets me every dang time!
I can’t wait to see the changes.
Stop by soon! ♥
The cool part of this is, for people who don't want everything bunched together, you still have the option of browsing. We "browsers" haven't lost anything. Win-Win all around!!!
We think so too!! Thanks for watching!
I hate taking the creativity out of choices. I son't want to wander a store looking for a color to match something I already have. When it's by color I can go directly to the section I am looking for. Obviously, I am in the minority because it looks messy to me. I hate someone else making/forcing choices for me because the fabric us part of a collection - It's too cookie-cutter. This is why I quit shopping. We are dumbing down human creativity.
😒😒💕💕🤨🤔
Congratulation, WELL DONE in every way , that's how l like to shop gold stars to every one involved Australia
I guess I'm in the minority. I never shop by collection. I like to choose my own combinations. My fabric at home is also organized by color. My sister, on the other hand will be thrilled.
To each their own for sure! We see it both ways of course, but having heard the overwhelming feedback we figured it would be worth the risk 🙂
Great change🎉
Thanks!
Well done!
Thank you!!
I may have to fly out to Vegas just to shop here now.
Yes you do! 😀
So much better!
Yes!!!🎉 I love this!
Thanks for watching!!!
At my LQS, collections are kept together for a while until they are no longer 'new', then they are separated by color. If you ask for assistance we can usually help you find the rest of the collection throughout the store or other coordinating fabrics based on your preference.
👍👍💕💕
Love the idea of setting up by collection. Unfortunately I live on the east coast & can't get to your store to see it all in person. But will check your store online.
Hopefully you can make it out here one day!
I’d love to win the lotto….. I want everything in your store.!! It’s cool that you care about your customers. We need all the help we can get.!
We love taking care of every guest that walks in our store. Thanks so much for watching!
Ok, I get it, a full collection is great, but I like your other method more. I guess it all depends on the quilter. When choosing blues I like to see several tones together. I love all you guys do, so in the end great job 👏
Good point! Thanks for watching 🙂
Good point! Thanks for watching 🙂
YES! By collection is the way to go -- easy peasy for beginners to pick up all of the fabrics for one project without having to hunt all over the store to find the right color to match the rest.
👍🤩🤩🤩
Great idea!
Thanks!
I loved the drama of the colour collections
👍👍🤩🤩😊😊
Awesome. Looks nice.
Thank you! Cheers!
I'm sure the manufacturers are very happy with you. They don't want anyone to try mix-and-match -- they want you to buy ONLY their fabric from one line.
