SPOOL out BadAss Quilters in

Earlier this week, I learned SPOOL is up for sale. The thought of owning a quilt shop is a dream for many sewists who likely envision their place as a social nexus. But, running a quilt shop is challenging. I know, because I’ve had several friends who were quilt shop owners. So, it’s no wonder that Maddie Kertay, founder of the BadAss Quilters Society and owner of SPOOL, when faced with two growing business lines chose to put her energy into BadAss.

If you need meat on the bones for how exactly running a quilt shop is difficult, Maddie shares details from the last 3 years at SPOOL.
