We opened Creations on February 13, 1978. It’s been quite an adventure and we have weathered recessions, gas shortages and a global pandemic.

We continue to offer the best in fabrics, patterns, and notions. Our shop is full of beautiful displays to inspire you. We carry great fabrics for those who love to make quilts, and garments as well as stitchery and wool work. We appreciate those customers who are able to shop with us in person and those who have shopped with us on line. We now have over 5,600 products online. It’s never the same as visiting the shop, but sometimes that’s as good as it gets.

In 1996, Creations was first featured in Quilt Sampler’s second edition. Twenty three years later, we were invited to be their “encore” shop for Spring 2019. It was quite an honor to be featured in this magazine twice.

We so appreciate the support of our customers for all these years as we continue to bring you the best our fabric industry has to offer.

QUILTING

We offer 100% cotton, quilting-weight fabrics in wide range of contemporary and traditional prints as well as batiks in every imaginable color. Visit our Quilting page to see all of our quilting fabrics, patterns, kits, books and supplies.

SEWING

We stock linen, Bali rayon, cottons, knits and other great clothing fabrics. We also carry unique sewing materials such as cork & Kraft-Tex. Visit our Sewing page to see our selection of patterns, books, fabrics and supplies for garment and home-dec sewing.

HAND STITCHERY

The popularity of hand stitchery never seems to fade. We’ve found quite a few pattern designers that know just how to add a modern touch to this classic style. Visit our Hand Stitchery page to see all these patterns, books and supplies.

MACHINE EMBROIDERY

Embroidery machines have made it easy to stitch colorful, elaborate embroidery designs on everything you can imagine. We highlight some of our favorite designs and embroidery blanks on our Machine Embroidery page.

PURSES, BAGS & TOTES

We have some great bag patterns, booklets, and hardware, including products from By Annie, Atkinson Designs and Aunties Two. You’ll find everything you need on our Purses, Bags & Totes page.

SHANNON MARTIN

The Shannon Martin greeting cards combine funny, vintage photos (in sepia tones) with witty greetings for birthdays, anniversaries, and more. Browse these great cards, as well as Shannon’s magnets, notecards and journals on our Shannon Martin page.

NOTIONS

In this section of our store, you will find a selection of Creative Grids rulers, rotary cutters, lots of thread, batting and some great notions as well as various interfacings. Just visit our Notions page to look for the tools you might need.

TEXAS & WESTERN

Over the years, Texas (and western) themed merchandise has been very popular with both our in-store and online customers. So, we naturally created a Texas & Western page to highlight these products.

It’s always exciting to receive new fabrics in the shop. This group is from a new designer for Free Spirit Fabrics, William Reue. He is an architect, artist and quilter living in New York.

William’s interest in quilting and fabric design was sparked when he attended a free quilting workshop with his sister, Yvonne, at her local library in Victoria, Texas.

You will definitely see the architectural influence in his prints. They look like fun to work with.
