A girlfriend who is an amazing quilter turned me onto Eddie's - they have incredible fabric selection and sewing machines. It's like a mini-community - people buy their equipment and fabric, have lots of classes and professional support. A good place - prices to be expected with higher quality fabrics.

I am an experienced seamstress, fabric shopper and sewing machine fanatic. Eddie has always taken great care of my machines and done so in a timely fashion. They keep current with sewing trends and know their machines well.

They have great staff who are helpful and very nice. Lots of notions. Fabrics are expensive (but that's expected) and this place is definitely geared towards the quilter rather than apparel sewers.

If your elderly aunt comes to visit the Peninsula, she doesn't want to see no Google or Computer History Museum. She wants to go to a fabric store that has four different crustacean-themed fabrics to make her fancy crabcake festival quilt.
If you dream of surging and quilting, this is the place for you.

I love this place! The people who work here and the customers who frequent it are so friendly and helpful. They have a good selection of very cute fabrics (including Amy Butler) and they offer lots of classes from beginning sewing to how to use a serger

Selection is good and organized well. There are Interesting events and quality products. There are often sales offering 20-30% off. Customer service is mixed, but I usually feel less than welcomed, which is too bad. Could just be in my head but it makes me feel less inclined to shop here and would rather go to the Granary.

I have been shopping here pretty regularly for about two years. Although the big box stores have great prices and a million coupons, they don't carry the professional tools or products from smaller specialty vendors the way Eddies does.
I found great products such as large rolls of Swedish tracing paper, transfer paper, specialty rulers, double tracing wheels, and vintage tweed! Much of my holy grail tools were found here. The staff has always been very friendly and informative. I know that if there is a new product that I would like to purchase, I feel very comfortable asking them to consider carrying it in their store.
I love that I don't have to go to all the way up to Britex for these things. Since my interested is in fashion sewing, you will find me upstairs where the fashion fabrics are. I want for more fashion sewists to shop here so that maybe they would carry more indie patterns such as Victory, Colette, Oliver & S, etc.
Easy parking, elevator and restroom in the store, they take all cards, great open hours.... I have no complaints! Thanks EQB!

I do believe that they play favorites to their longtime customers. It is slightly awkward. The store is huge and well lit. I have taken plenty of classes and have never had the teacher try to sell me anything. I have bought 2 sewing machines here and found that the intro classes are very helpful for learning your machine. I disagree with other yelpers that this is just a quilting store. They have a great condensed selection of cute patterns for bags/purses/kid clothes/aprons. Also, there are tons of notions upstairs. If you need help upstairs there is a doorbell that you can push and someone will come upstairs and help.

An awesome little shop perfect for sewing, quiting, crotcheting, and just about any other crafty thing you can think of. The employees are incredibly nice, and they have an excellent selection of fabrics and patterns. This is definitely a step up from some of the more commercial fabric shops, and I think that the employees really take this to being a 5 star experience.
I'm a fan, and I will be returning!

I was surprised to see some of the low reviews. I'm an avid quilter and I go here a lot. They have a lot of good selection and the quality of their fabric is higher than what you would find at a Joanns.
I think a lot of people who don't have experience with sewing/quilting sometimes have the impression they can just do a project. Really it is a skill and you can't just jump in to the deep end. I would just say that if you are new to quilting/sewing maybe start with one of the classes.
