Fabricate opened in January 2012 as a contemporary fabric boutique in downtown Boulder, Colorado. What began as a small creative shop quickly grew into a vibrant community hub, with a dedicated following drawn to our ever-changing assortment of home décor, quilting, and apparel fabrics, along with classes for all ages and skill levels.
After more than a decade of running a bustling brick-and-mortar shop, I chose to return to what I love most: travel, textiles, and teaching. Today, Fabricate lives in a bright studio in North Boulder, where I focus on three offerings: private and small-group instruction, fabric and yarn showings by appointment, and custom sewing.
With a quieter space and intentionally lower overhead, I’m able to offer highly individualized lessons, flexible scheduling, and a more personal approach. Working one-on-one and in small classes allows students to focus on exactly what they want to learn—at their own pace—using carefully curated materials, professional tools, and techniques I’ve refined over more than a decade of teaching.
My passion lies in sourcing remarkable textiles and tools from around the world, celebrating handcraft traditions, and embracing the beauty of simplicity and imperfection. I also offer a range of custom sewing services, including quilt repairs, throw pillows, boxed seat cushions, and more.
I credit my love of handcraft, gardening, fashion, and home décor to my effortlessly stylish and eternally creative mother. Fabricate is a tribute to her enthusiasm for celebrating the seasons, recognizing beauty in details, and finding joy in the simple act of making.
