Top choice in Denver
So you dig crochet and quilting? You knit a mean sweater and have a few too many tattoos?

There are classes in the back (including some by Jessica, ‘mistress of patchwork’) and a rad selection of fabric, yarn and books.
If you are a little bit more hands off with your homemade clothes, try Fancy Tiger Clothing next door, where local designers hock their wares.
