Poppy Quilt ‘n Sew - Georgetown, TX

Poppy's new owner is Michelle Bailey. We soon learned that the poppy is the Georgetown city flower and the shop carries fabrics to meet that need. They offer lots of classes and we were told by customers that the staff members are all good teachers. They said that there was always something new to learn and I had to agree. Each time I asked a question, the answer was, "Come, let me show you!"

We saw their "Too Cool" t-shirt quilt business and the 108" inch minke they use for backings. They had 40 and 60-inch minke on the sales floor. The owner also noted that they had one of the best batik selections in the area. This shop participates in Quilts of Valor and has the fabric to back this up. I don’t think I had ever seen Stitch by Number before, but they had that too!

Glossary

Batik
A cloth which traditionally uses a manual wax-resist dyeing technique. Due to modern advances in the textile industry, the term has been extended to include fabrics which incorporate traditional batik patterns even if they are not produced using the wax-resist dyeing techniques. Silk batik is especially popular.
