15 Shops to See at the Missouri Star Quilt Town!

Calling all quilters, crafters and seamstresses! If this is you then you have to visit the Missouri Star Quilt Town in Hamilton, Missouri. The main street is full of shops made especially for you. If you can’t find a fabric you need here then it just might not exist. So let’s take a little tour through each of these fun shops below…

The Missouri Star Main shop

This is where I would start out if I were you. Not only will you get a little taste of the different shops you can visit throughout the town but they also have maps you can grab to help you navigate throughout your day. This store also has souvenirs and all things Missouri Star! And for the traveler who might need to charge their phone you can plug in your phone to one of the charging stations located in this building.

Premade Quilt Shop

If you want to purchase a premade quilt, then this will be your favorite store. In this shop you will find beautifully crafted quilts ready for purchase. As you look through the many different designs, the shop attendant will be happy to help was needed. This is a great option for those who love quilts but don’t have the time to do the work themselves.

Mercantile

If you are looking for old timey fabrics you should visit the Mercantile. This shop sports fabrics with designs from both the 1800s as well as the 1930s. This shop will take you back in time as you peruse the racks of fabrics. What a great place to get fabric for a retro designed quilt!

Florals

Florals has every flower and leaf print that you could imagine. This shop has such a variety for you to look through that you are sure to find the pattern you need. It’s like walking into a green house of fabrics. So pretty!

Lets Make Art

While the Let’s Make Art shop is not one of the many fabric shops lining the street, it is what they call a “sister shop” of the Missouri Star. Here you will find art supplies for varying projects. So, if you have other hobbies besides quilting (or want to try out something new) you may like to come in a while and look around.

Penney’s Quilt Shop

Walking across the street you will find Penney’s quilt shop. The thing that really makes this shop special is the how they pay tribute to JC Penney throughout the shop, as Hamilton, Missouri is JC Penney’s hometown. From the rustic look of the building to old timey decor on the walls, the atmosphere is a fun one to have as you look through the different fabrics in the store.

Licensed to Sew

Looking for a fabric that has your favorite sports team? Animated character? Or is Movie themed? If so you will want to check out Licensed to sew. This shop stocks licensed fabrics for you to purchase. What a fun way to cheer on your favorite team or make something with a character that a loved one will enjoy.

Kids and Baby

If you take the stairs located at the back of Listened to Sew then you will find four more stores all connected upstairs. At the top of the stairs, the first store you will see is Kids and Baby. Here you will find kid themed fabrics. Its a great place to find fabric for any baby quilts you might be making. This shop has so many cute designs to look at.

Modern

Also upstairs, connected to Kids and Baby on the second floor, you will find Modern. Here you can find some of the latest fabric designs to browse and purchase. The options in this town are (almost) endless!

Backing and Trims

Need to finish up a quilt or sewing project? Then you will want to visit Backing & Trims. Here you will find all the supplies you need to complete what you are working on. While it might not be as fun as looking through colorful fabrics, make a quick stop here to gather the supplies you need to put the finishing touches on your quilt.

Sew Seasonal

Continuing on upstairs, in the far corner shop, you will find Sew Seasonal. Here you will find holiday fabrics galore! Who doesn’t need a little Christmas all year round? You also will find not only Christmas fabrics but also other fabrics for many other holidays as well.

Machine Shed

If you need a specific sewing tool then Machine Shed is the shop for you. Here you will find all things sewing and sewing machine related. There are rulers, design templates, parts for your machine and so much more.

Man’s Land

Traveling with a non-quilter? They may like to check out Man’s Land. This small room is set up next to the Machine Shed shop and is equipped with everything you need to relax while the quilters and seamstresses in your life are shopping. Here you will see two rows of recliners pointed towards a TV as well as a pool table and snack machine. Bring a book, take a nap or watch a show and let the time slip by.

Batik Boutique

The last fabric shop along this row is Batik Boutique. Here you will find beautifully designed Batik fabrics in a variety of colors. These bright colors are sure to make anyone smile as they look through the shelves.

One Big Happy Yarn Company

The very last shop on this side of the street is the One Big Happy Yarn Company shop. This is another sister shop of the Missouri Star and it is dedicated to everything yarn! If your projects involve yarn this is where you will want to shop. Who knew there were so many things you could do with yarn!

So, if you are a quilter (and even if you aren’t) I would highly recommend visiting this little town. So many fun things to see!
