To avoid going stir-crazy or coming down with a severe case of cabin fever, you’ll often find that during the winter New Yorkers can get quite crafty when they’re forced to enjoy time inside. Maybe you’re not a fan of being outside when it’s this cold out or perhaps you’re stuck indoors because of a snowstorm that’s taken over your town, either way – it’s always a fun idea to whip something together with your own two hands. Providing you with all the tools you’ll need to make a work of art out of fabrics, check out this one shop in the Capital Region that you could spend all day shopping in.
Up on Pawling Avenue in Troy, Pookie's Fabrics is an absolutely charming shop to sort through.
While this may not look like some hole-in-the-wall fabric shop, you'll still often be surprised at just how big the shop's space is inside once you get here.
Offering more than the average big-box fabric store can give you, Pookie's is a great place to visit when you're looking to pick up some whimsical seasonal prints.
Those who come to Pookie's will find everything that they'll need for when it comes to both sewing and quilting - with a staff equipped with a plethora of knowledge.
From fabrics to goods made out of fabric like tote bags, table runners, quilts, blankets, scarves, and more - Pookie's Fabrics is a one-stop shop that you'll wish you had known about sooner.
