The fabric shop at 2044 Otter Point Rd., has been operating as an online store since September, but is finally ready to open the doors for in-person shopping.

The store is filled with all kinds of “bright, bold and cheery,” fabric designs and sewing tools for quilt-makers to use on future projects.
