In Between Stitches

No better place to be inspired, taught and supported! Worth the drive no matter where you live…

This is a great quilt shop in Livermore. Every time I’ve been in the store, everyone has been very friendly and very helpful. They have a great selection of fabrics, including Civil War fabrics that I seem to gravitate to. I can’t say that I’ve ever walked away empty-​handed when looking for fabrics for projects. They always have beautiful quilts on display and carry a lot of patterns and kits. I would love to take some classes, but traffic to get there during the week is a nightmare from my neck of the woods.

Great fabrics, good selection but not very friendly. I guess if they know you it’s a very different experience but they’ll never know me if they don’t acknowledge my presence in their shop. Pretty disappointing.

They have a great list of classes to take, but I probably won’t reschedule. I signed up for Machine Quilting, and then I got in a car accident the day before the class. Medical injuries stopped me from going to class the next day. I contacted In Between Stitches and asked if they could move me to next month’s class. They explained their policy is to pre-​pay instructors a week before the class, so if one chair is empty it doesn’t impact the instructor. They did offered 30% credit toward another class. Livermore tax is 9%, so there goes almost ¹⁄₃ of the offer. But, that is not the point!
Every quilt store I have EVER been to is gracious and friendly, and they would have asked me if I wanted to rebook the class. I mean… I don’t know too many people who can sew after being in a car accident the day before. Really!
Be aware of the terms of these classes and BEWARE of this store! If you sign up for a class, don’t get sick! Or, you may wish you never heard of the place (like me!)

Love the great fabrics to select from at this shop. Also whenever I’ve needed help over the years, the staff has graciously provided support with my various sewing projects.
