Staff is extremely helpful given the bustling location and customer volume, which I loved seeing so many customers in a craft shop.The Quarter Stitch has a wide variety of cross stitch patterns highlighting the local attractions (CafΓ© Du Monde, alligators, Mardi Gras) as well as floral patterns and others.My personal favorite was the locally dyed yarn in colors like Crawfish, Rhythm and Blues, and Grand Isle. Even completed the experience with stitch markers of skulls, fleur-de-lis, and a king cake baby π!The staff take care in wrapping the treasures in tissue paper, in a plastic bag and topping it off with ribbons.Love this little shop! If you are a crafter, its certainly a place you cannot miss!
One of the bigger shops in the quarter and beautifully stocked with all variety of yarns, notions, and cross-stitching. The staff is lovely and knowledgeable and there is plenty to choose from for souvenirs, even if space is a concern. I got some lovely local yarn, a handmade stitch marker, and a weight measure and it was all reasonably priced and extremely high quality. It is truly an oasis in the quarter and a must-visit for any knitter or stitcher.
Sweet gem of a shop with plenty of yarn and needlepoint canvas and materials. Would love to see more local yarn or Louisiana wool (or, if itβs already there, to have it be highlighted up front and center).
Great store! Big selection of yarns. Yarn is my favourite souvenir.
Super cute shop, friendly knowledgeable staff, lots of delicious, locally dyed yarn! My order was wrapped and ribboned and it truly felt like getting myself a gift.
Friendly, knowledgeable, knitting people work here. A lovely selection of hard-to-find yarns. Some upcycled.
The shop had a great selection of yarns, cross-stitch and needlepoint. The staff was very friendly & helpful - a great stop for any stitcher.
Cute yarn shop!
Nice craft place
An enchanting knitting and embroiderer store in the heart of the French Quarter.I was very surprised to find this charming shop and even more delighted as I wandered inside. For cross-stitchers who want to remember their trip to N.O., they have a variety of small patterns for landmarks in the area, such as Cafe Du Monde, ect. Wonderful service. Once of the items I wanted, they didnt have in at the time, it was no issue to pay for it upfront and then they sent it to my home when it arrived in store.If you love to stitch, check them out!
Lovely shop with yarn and needlepoint. I am a knitter with lots of yarn but I enjoyed my visit to this colorful shop in the French Quarter. I couldnt resist buying some locally dyed yarn. A bonus is the excellent coffee shop across the street.
The store itself is an experience visually. Theres not one area that isnt captivating to the eye. So many textures and beautiful hand dyed yarns! Yes, the prices may seem high compared to yarns coming from a mill; however, many of these yarns see hand dyed, making each skein unique to its batch. I highly recommend checking this place out, it is well worth the visit! I am so happy I had the chance to go while I was visiting my friend in New Orleans, hopefully Ill be able to return again soon! :)
Lots of great yarns, unique choices, great service!
Great people and Product very specialized product unique
This shop has such a beautiful selection of yarns and colorways. I wish they had a yarn store like this in Baton Rouge. I came with a budget of $100 but ended up spending almost $200 because I couldnt narrow my choices down. Theres a wide variety of fibers, brands, and the staff is very helpful. I learned that they do ship so it will save me a trip next time but I think Ill drop by whenever Im in town. Theres nothing like being surrounded by great quality yarn.
Excellent shop. Very friendly staff & great to work with. A lot of needlepoint (my canvas came with fibers!). Also large yarn/knitting selection. Small cross stitch section. The only drawback is the location is right in the quarter so getting there was a bit craxy.
Utterly loved the selection and staff. They were also willing to ship to my house which was awesome! Thank you Quarter Stitch! My haul got to Seattle fast!
Awesome selection of gorgeous yarn! I managed to hold back and only bought two skeins, which they kindly wound into cakes while I continued to wander around. They have a ton of items they made that helpfully have tags with the yarn, amount of yarn, and pattern names! Super nice and friendly staff, will be back next time Im in NOLA!
Amazing selection of needlework kits. Got some beautiful sock yarn by dragonfly fibers and a free pattern. Great location and great vibe.
Nice shop, friendly and super helpful folks. Lots of hand painted needlepoint canvases and so much luscious yarn and roving! I will be back.
The women were very friendly and very knowledgeable. I didnt realize that I had come in when the store was about to close, but the owner allowed me to browse to my content without getting rushed. The quality of yarn there is fantastic. However, dont go there if you need something simple that bulk yarn at Michaels or Joanns can take care of. This is more specialty yarn from my observation.
Great staff who were very friendly and helpful pointing out the locally died fibers. Great selection and they packaged my purchases beautifully with tissue and ribbons! If youre a fiber lover this place will make you happy!
This is a lovely and friendly yarn shop just off Jackson Square with a mix of widely available brands and ones that I had never encountered before. It features what is possibly the best selection of cashmere and silk blend yarn on hand that I have ever come across. That also means that if youre drawn to those yarns youll be spending at least $30 on a skein, so prepare yourself! Otherwise, I have happily visited this shop the last two times I was in New Orleans and come away with something unique to add to my stash.
Loved this place! Another gem found. If you like to knit or stitch, go there!
My wife thoroughly enjoyed her visit here. Found the ladies to be very personable and friendly with a quality product. They not only bonded over the love of their craft, but also for the Red Sox
I was so excited to find this place while visiting the Quarter. The ladies were friendly, I very much enjoyed wandering the shop and looking at the great selection they had. Itching to play with the yarn I brought home and cant wait to come back to this place the next time were in town!
Such helpful ladies, great selection!
Excellent store. Beautiful selection of yarns. Also has an amazing array of hand painted needlepoint canvases. And its right next to Jackson Square. I go there every trip I make to NOLA! Its a MUST !!!!
The ladies at the shop were wonderful! They were so helpful and friendly. I arrived shortly before closing time and they let me stay after a few minutes to look around and pick something out. They showed me a lot of great products and ideas for projects to go with them. The prices were a bit high, but expected for a shop so close to all the New Orleans hot spots. The jazz music from Jackson Square made a nice soundtrack to my shopping experience! Great location and a wonderful shop, Im so glad I found it!
Quaint fibre shop in the heart of the quarter! Good selection, decent prices and friendly staff! Will definitely go back next trip out!
We are visiting from Colorado and are so glad we found this shop. The yarn is wonderful- but the two women who were working the shop were ABSOLUTELY delightful. We went in to buy one token skein to mark our trip...... needless to say, we bought a lot more! Thank you for the experience!
What a great little knitting store! I stopped here on a roadtrip and the ladies were so kind and welcoming. I picked out some yarn for a future special Soldotna sweater, and they let me unfurl the skeins to see how they would look together. If youre into knitting, crochet, or embroidery check out this store!
If you are a fibre artist visiting NOLA, you owe it to yourself to visit The Quarter Stitch! The staff were welcoming, friendly, and knowledgeable. If you ate a fan of cross stitch, they have beautiful patterns hand painted by local artists!
Lovely yarn shop in the French Quarter near other attractions. Stocks needles (helpful if you leave home without the 2nd set you need for a project), LYS brand favorites, and some custom indie yarns that you wont find anywhere else. Its a must stop for a knitter/crocheter/needlepointer.
An extraordinary needle shop stuffed full of premium yarns and threads (!) needlepoint designs and a friendly, talented owner!!! Oh, forgot to mention a wonderful comfort chair one can relax as she winds each skein!!! I look forward to my next visit!!!
Im so happy I decided to look up a knitting store while I was in New Orleans for the weekend. I went looking for some dpns and stitch markers which I needed to finish a project on my flight home but I fell in love with the store! My friend, a non-knitter, went to explore elsewhere, but eventually came in and looked around and was attracted to the hats they had on display. They gave me 2 free patterns with my purchases. The women working were also so helpful and friendly. They bagged my purchases up like a gift and it was such a nice touch. As a new knitter, Ive been working with mostly cheap, acrylic yarns, but I think this store brought me over to the dark side and I purchased my first two balls of high quality yarn. I will be lucky to visit the store again if Im ever in New Orleans! Highly recommend!I never write reviews but there is a reason this place has so many good ones!
Beautiful selection of needle arts. Helpful staff. Beautiful handpainted canvases.
Super cute and clean shop! Picked out a few things that were graciously wrapped and shipped to my wife back home for a free!
Friendly, helpful, professional - and gorgeous yarn! I found the prices comparable to better yarn stores in NYC (my hometown) and other cities: no bargains, but the yarn and the advice are the best. I always say I dont knit to save money on sweaters, I knit to save money on therapy and the sweaters are just a nice bonus. So you might as well have the deluxe therapy! I was sorry that I was only looking for a pattern. The staff quickly figured out the sort of style I was looking for, and narrowed down their books and patterns, then found the perfect one on Ravelry and printed it up for me. This must be a very low margin item for them, but they wrapped it up with a bow. Id say it was the time I spent there that was the present to me, though! I will definitely be back in New Orleans one day, and definitely come back here!
Great selection, cute space, helpful and knowledgeable staff provided superb service.
The staff isnt particularly friendly but I wouldnt call them rude either. The kits may be all inclusive however they are quite pricey. Ill stick with online shopping and big box craft stores.
The ladies were very friendly and helpful. Fun to visit a yarn shop in The French Quarters while on vacation. Anxious to start knitting on the yarn I bought !
I love this shop!Whenever I am in town I treat myself to something wonderful from the quarter stitch.The yarns are so beautiful.They have things in there you wont find anywhere else.Cross stitch, needlepoint, hand dyed artisan yarns.I bought two glass yarn needles.One for my daughter and one for myself ( she doesnt share very well.) haFabulous and unusual things.Give yourself a minute to look around.If you want cheap yarn and kiddy crafts go to Michaels.This store is beautiful quality products and amazing items.Dont miss it.
Charming store. Sadly they didnt have the two things I wanted. Both ladies were very helpful.
Lovely shop. The layout makes it easy to peruse their yarn and cross-stitch selections. Staff were very friendly. Totally recommend stopping in.
Awesome staff will ship your purchase so you dont have to take with you. Amazing assortment of luxury yarns along with more affordable options. A+
Great shop! Very helpful. Lots of beautiful needlepoint and some nice New Orleans cross stitch patterns and kits.
Beautiful wool supplies everything imaginable! Wonderful selection of canvases!
Quality yarns and needlepoint. Comfy chair for the non knitter.
If you love yarn and knit, crochet, or needlepoint, dont miss this gem of a shop tucked in the French Quarter in New Orleans. Fantastic selection, gorgeous colors, and friendly service.
I stopped in this shop while in the French Quarter . Wide variety of needlepoint to choose from and it includes all the thread that either you can choose what you want or they assist. The staff was very helpful and a very fun experience. Especially loved the LSU designs.
I always always stop in every time I visit the French Quarter. They have a great selection of yarn and the colors are fabulous!
Without a doubt, the nicest people!! They were there to help and answer questions, but not at all pushy. The shop is cozy and they have a nice variety of yarn and needlepoint canvases. I got a beautiful Mardi Gras angel canvas as a souvenir of our trip to New Orleans.
I love your store, it had a nice selection of yarns. Its was only a brief visit, I wish I had more time to look around. I am looking forward to knitting with the yarns I did purchase. Your staff is very helpful and nice. Next time I am in New Orleans I am coming back.
My wife and I waited outside for a very long time while my sister in law was shopping. Had to get a crow bar to get her out (lol). She loves the supplies that she can get there. If you are into it, this is the place.
Wonderful shop!!!
Wonderful shop, very helpful owner and lots to choise from!! Love this place!
Beautiful store with a great selection. Even found some cross stitch kits. What a gem.
Its such a cute and friendly store! They have good prices
The ladies here are so helpful and nice! Yes, as in another review, the prices are pretty high but the yarns are really nice (its not Michaels or Hobby Lobby!) and it *is* the French Quarter, so high prices are to be expected. I like to go here as a special treat every once in a while, or, when Im making a nice gift!
The Quarter Stitch is the perfect place for yarn crafters of all skill levels. I walked in their doors an absolute novice and left with a good start on my first project, a bag full of yarn, and an unshakeable loyalty to the amazing folks who i introduced me to the incredible world of fiber arts.
The wife went in here. She told me the prices were over the top! Great place but one can not afford to buy anything there.
Amazing place!
The clerks that were working on the day I went in were rude and pretty much ignored me when the found out I was a Yankee. If it werent for the amazing collection of hand-painted canvases that covered the walls, I would have walked out. Imagine how nice they were when they realized I was spending several hundred dollars in their store. Needless to say, I have some beautiful works of art now.
This place is amazing and has everything that i want!!! It is very organized, too.
Decent selection of yarns, reasonably priced. Staff is quite friendly and gift wrapped my purchase without any upcharge. They will wind anything you purchase as well. Alsoβ available are stitch patterns and floss.
Beautiful shop, great selection and the ladies were charming. Definitely worth the trip from New York!
Great selection, knowledgeable staff, and fun wrapping of the purchase. I wound up reusing the wrapping to give a gift since it was so fun.
Wonderful staff and great selection of yarns, needlepoint, and cross stitch items. Such a pleasure to shop there. A true vacation treat.
Small quaint yarn and craft store in the heart New Orleans. Very friendly staff. Lots of unique yarns.
Was SO welcomed at this LYS! Will definitely return on any future trips to Nola!
Amazing selection of specialty yarns. The staff is really helpful and theyll wind your yarn skeins into center pull ball.
Super helpful staff and a unique selection of needlepoint supplies.
Its an OK shop, but it offers little thats unique or quintessentially NOLA. Worse yet, you get very high prices.
The Quarter Stitch goes absolutely above and beyond with customer service!
Very helpful and friendly. I know nothing about knitting and they helped me find a great gift for the knitter in my life.
Love this shop. Beautiful yarn, part of the New Orleans experience.
Lots and lots of beautiful yarns.
Very friendly staff great selection good value x
Great selection of yarn and notions, including a fair number of locally exclusive yarns. Highly dangerous to visit.
Sweet and helpful staff and BEAUTIFUL yarn!!@
Delightful small embroidery store! I really liked their speciality New Orleans canvases and perfect color selection. The two women added a touch of extra New Orleans speciality charm to my visit. That works everytime with me. I could go back and just sit a spell with these ladies and share a mint juliup or two over an afternoon of embroidery.
Friendly staff and great selection of yarn. Love my twizzle Mardi Gras yarn!
Small, but well stocked. Nice unconventional suvenior.
Lots of beautiful yarn and the staff was very pleasant!
Great yarn shop. Purchased an exclusive Mardi Gras color way. Nice touch
Great selection and very helpful
Terribly overpriced and catering to tourists. Not much variety in floss. Canvases are handpainted and expensive.
What a delightful departure from the madness of Mardi Gras outside :) LOVE how my purchase was gift wrapped like a present to me. Ill be back for sure!
Friendly,knowledgeable staff. Lovely place
This place is a marvel and the staff is incredible.
The folks here are what makes this LYS a treat. The selection is good too.
Very friendly ladies and very nice store. Beautiful store!
Beautiful Store and adorable attention !!! Nice place to go if you are visiting New Orleans ... Love it
Love the yarn and the people that work there
When Im on vacation, I always like visiting the local yarn stores to finger the yarn and pick something up.The owners were pleasant and helpful and I purchased a skien of Mardi Gras themed yarn for a shawlette. They also wound my skien for me and wrapped my purchase up...it was super cute.I will definitely be back
I Love This Place!!β€β€β€ Its a Happy Place!!πβ€ππβ€π
