Piecemakers Country Store

Once is not enough to see and experience this one of a kind shop. If the wide variety of classes doesn’t catch your imagination, then the gifts or the craft fairs will! I took a beginning class and the ladies helped me pick out the fabrics and the tools I needed to make what I think turned out to be a beautiful quilt. I’m going to take more classes just becauseI I feel «good» after spending time there. Do yourself a favor and get your kids in a class so you can use the time to do all your Christmas and birthday shopping while getting a bit refreshed in the process.

I had no idea that this place has any religious affiliation until I just saw the other reviews, it doesn’t feel like it when you go in. It seems like a country sewing store that Laura Ingall’s would have gone to. I didn’t go here to shop, I went to a felting class workshop with Jzin Teng (with my 10 year old daughter) and we had a blast. We made swans and learned how to needle felt. Jzin was awesome and helpful! She does beautiful work, can’t wait to take another class.

Love this place! If you love to sew or want to learn — they offer classes. They offer gifts, fabrics, notions, and candies. Every time I have been here a wonderful lady named Linda always helps me. She is patient and very kind. I wanted some organic cotton yarn and they had it. Not a big offering of natural fiber yarn, but if you want blended or acyrilic they will probably have what you are looking for.
They have extensive offerings of classes from nuno felting to ribbon embellishment and doll making! You can rent a sewing machine by the hour for a small fee.
Upstairs they have room filled with handmade artisanal treasures. I found some lovely felted floral brooches and some sweet handmade petite doilies for my dresser.
Also, they all kinds of seasonal treasures around the store for sale, which are right beside handmade or antique treasures for sale. You just never know what you may find.
Lastly they have a quaint tea and pie room if you need a quick me up. They also offer fairs and holiday themes festivities at their store. Such a great littke place!

This store is worth going out of your way to visit! I was there for three and a half days while I attended a doll-​making workshop, and each time I went into the store I found something I hadn’t seen before. The store is laid out in different rooms which are decorated in «old timey» style. The store stocks supplies for many arts and crafts projects, so if you are interested in quilt making, embroidery, crocheting, knitting, needle tatting, doll making, cooking, nuno felting, gourd art, bead work, metal work or fabric embellishment you will probably find something that you just have to have. If you don’t know how to do any of these things, Piecemakers offers classes and demonstrations, as well as special events throughout the year.
Even if you aren’t interested in making things, there are also finished projects, antiques, artisan items, and vintage clothing for sale. Be sure to check out the «Artists Upstairs» and the vintage clothing.
The quilts alone are worth going into the store to see.
I can’t say enough kind things about the staff. While I was there I felt more as if I was visiting favorite aunties rather than being in a store. Everyone was helpful and went out of their way to direct me to what I needed.
I didn’t get a chance to try the apple pie, but everything else they served while I was there was delicious, and I’m just sorry I didn’t buy the recipe book. Next time!

This fabric store is awesome and the staff is helpful. They have an awesome selection of fabric and a great array of classes. There is also a team room. The entire store is charming.
I did not go there for apple pie but I bought one and it was awesome. I am planning to take the apple pie making class.
I am definitely planning another visit to Piecemakers.

I’ve been wanting to make a quilt for some time. I just got a sewing machine and wanted to break it in. I found this place on Unilocal,and it sounded really interesting. First, I haven’t made a quilt in since I was about 12. It’s been quite awhile. I had a pattern I wanted to use, and was looking at fabrics, but was feeling a little lost. I wanted to ask some of the employees some questions, but when I walked in there was a group of them standing around talking with some other customers. They never once acknowledged me. After the one customer went away that they were talking to, they still said nothing to me. It felt a little uncomfortable. The store itself has a lot of different items in it. I am imagine if you are in to sewing and crafting this would be a good place to try, so three stars based off that. However, the staff was so disappointing to me. I left and went to buy my stuff somewhere else. I would have loved to have spent my money here, but it wasn’t meant to be I guess.

It just doesen’t get any better than Piecemakers, it is a truly unique place to shop for not just beautiful fabric but unique art supplies and very nice recycled clothing.
They have a super tea room serving scones or a full lunch and live music you can sing along to, do a solo if your brave or just listen, the music is with lunch 2 times a month. Special events happen all the time and they offer really different Classes:
Art, Sewing, Mix Media, Jewlery, Campy Furniture Painting, Fascinator Hat Making, Cooking,(inc. gluten free) and many more classes from instructors that come from everywhere. You will see different magical things for sale every time you go in.
Also PIECEMAKERS is a MUST STOP on many of the Tour Busses.

Rosanna is very professional and that’s what i like in her the best, she teaches sewing from the scratch and she is also patient with her students, she is funny and above all very informative.

Great crafty store, tea room and crafty classes. The staff is part of an older religious commune, very nice not preachy. They depend on the store for income. They also sell firewood and awesome pies.

I took a private class with Rossana and let me tell you she knows what’s up! She taught me all super secret sewing tricks and had some great stories. She was very patient, and her explanations were clear .
I forgot to bring a pattern.(oops!) but no fear ! Rossana showed me how to make one! BAMB! problem solved! At the end of my 2 hour lesson I still had not finished making my apron but she was kind enough to let me finish while she taught her next class.
Great price and I will be booking another class with her very soon!
Walked around the store and everything was very well organized and beautiful! The staff was also super helpful. Much more knowledgable than the people at Joann’s or Michaels. This is the place to go for any DIY/​craft /​sewing questions.

I’m rating the crafts fair that was sponsored and held here.
We went to the fair which had several vendors who were selling a wide range of different craft items, from weird stuffed critter bears, to teddy bear clothing, to home-​made truffles. My favorite part of the fair was actually the food. There was this amazing apple pie with such great flavor — it tasted so homemade and good.
The actual piecemakers store was quite cute. It reminded me of something out of «prairie days,» with sew patterns of paisleys and bonnets. Despite the old school feel items (knit patterns, doilies, etc.), there is a wide variety of fabrics to choose from that is sure to attract the craft-​savvy people.

This place is amazing! All the other reviews are right, total time warp. It’s impossible to describe though you have to see for yourself! I am not a crafty person and I don’t even know how to sew but this place inspired me! They offer classes for sewing, crotchet and many other things and I will definitely be attending soon. Even if you never plan on doing any sort of arts and crafts this place is a must see! They have so much more, they serve lunch, have desserts, sell lotions and scrubs that they hand make, they sell cards and also have a ton of items for Christmas on the 2^nd floor! Do your self a favor and go the next time you have an hour to kill!

Whoa… what era am I in? Piecemakers is one of those places that makes you scratch your head and reflect on whether you’ve gone back in time. Nope, you can access everything on your cell phone, so all is not lost!
A combination of JoAnns and Knotts Berry Farm Craft Fair, this craft shop has a really homey old fashioned quality about it. The décor is very a bit schizophrenic, but it works! They offer a wide range of fabric, appliqué, buttons you name it. It’s a one stop shop for all your craft needs though a bit expensive for my taste. Yet, I’ve still given them 4 stars. Listen here and listen good… These women bake a mean apple pie. *drools* I will even go as far to say that they make better pies than any franchise shop.
Verdict: GO BUY AN APPLE PIE!!! ($ 12 each) You’re welcome :)

Solid 4 stars for the ‘whoaaa, where am I?!’ experience.
This place is time and space travel to some rural country store in 1965; it definitely felt a little Twilight Zone. I mentioned that to one of the store clerks (who are uniformed in jean suspenders) and she said that *everyone* says the same thing. It’s a kitschy, musty store that looks like the home of an eccentric hoarding grandmother — they have all sorts of random craft supplies scattered among seasonal holiday decorations, creepy nightmare-​fodder porcelain dolls, knick-​knacks and stuff I have no working vocabulary to describe. Sensory overload took over after 15 minutes or so and I only managed to visit about 20% of the first floor. I’ll probably go back to experience the whole thing one of these days — maybe even make it a tourist destination for out of town friends who are into gnomes, make their own yarn and call Coke, pop — after mentally preparing for the trip (as in surreal experience).
Friendly and helpful staff.

I lived in Western North Carolina for several years and this store reminds me of the more rural towns. I’m transported to a time and place far away from here. The store is much smaller than I expected from other reviews though. They sold bolts of fabric and buttons. Lots of knick knacks but nothing with patterns I liked. Since it was pre-​Thanksgiving, they had pies too.
This isn’t the place for me. The patterns are more for the older set.

I really like this place. My co-​worker brought me here on our lunch break.
I recently started quilting and this is the perfect place to go for the essentials!
They had their 4^th of July sale and everything (with a few exceptions) was 40%. Not bad at all!

Cute store. It has a country theme going on. There was a pretty good selection of lace, tea cups, tea pots, fabrics, butter dishes, dolls etc. Definitely stop by if you need a change from JoAnn’s or Michaels.

OK so this place is run by a cult. Really. Google it. Which is kind of strange. But if you can get around that…
It’s AMAZING. Not cheap. But quality really cool stuff. Quilting fabric, collectibles, a café, a barber, beads, embroidery supples, etc.
They have a craft fair coming up ¹²⁄₃ and 12÷4… You should definitely go. My sister and I went last year and we still remember the fun times we had. We went on Friday night in the evening when the craft fair is all lit up with Christmas lights and under the stars… it’s awesome :)

I am brand new to the crafty game but I know a good thing when I see it. This store is incredible! There is something to buy in every single corner. Piecemakers Village feels a bit like you have walked onto Knott’s Berry Farm… it has a very warm, inviting country feel.
It is quiet inside, the fabrics and the strings, yarns, and flosses have created such insulation it is so peaceful inside. I could spend hours in there looking at everything. It’s a much different feeling than walking into a major chain craft store… yikes, I can’t believe I even compared the two.
I have been familiar with the location for years but only just went in for the first time after Kealoha found that they carry a brand of embroidery thread that I like… Valdani. We found the selection of Valdani threads and I took three colors for my arsenal of string.
I really wish I would have asked for the gal’s name that had helped me… I wanted to find a certain type of fabric from a swatch I was carrying around and she led me right to the spot where I would find it and the proceeded to show me reams of fabric until I found the one that I liked best.
She cut a yard of the fabric for me, rang me up for the embroidery thread I had picked out and Kealoha and I headed out the door. I ran back in really quick and asked her which fabric it was she gave me and she wrote down every bit of information I needed to successfully find it again.
Places like this give me hope and inspire the creativity that is dying to get out of me. I can’t wait until I can go back and spend more time looking at EVERYTHING.

Best pie around! And the homemade pumpkin soups during the fall and winter are great! Made from real pumpkins, not out of the can pumpkin!
