My reference to an unusual business model was about Wooden Spools. These ladies buy back fabric from people who have decided they do not want to use it. It must be new and unwashed. Then, they catagorize it on the shelves and re-sell it. They clearly state, by signs, fabric that is quilt store quality and that which came from discount stores. I have found great fabric there. They also do this with yarn. They give classes, have demonstrations, sew-in days. It is a happy place.

My go to quilt stores are:
Creative Needle - medium sized store stuffed full of fabrics. Huge selection of batiks-solids, + more.
Wooden Spools - quilterpurpledog gave a very clear and concise explanation of this store.
Both if these stores are located in the suburbs of Denver.
My other “go to” store is NaLa’s in Fountain. It is located about 1.5 hr South of Denver (20 min South of Colorado Springs). Smaller store, great variety of fabrics.
