There was only one cashier but there were self-checkout machines so I was able to check out pretty quickly. I did come back to pick up an online order since I got a discount from ordering online. One of the employees asked me for my last name then told me to look at the pickup section to find my order. I did find that odd and a little less secure than I would like. That means anyone could have come in the store and looked at the last names on the pickup bags and told the employees that it's their order. Nonetheless, it has been a pretty seamless experience going to this store. I would def order from them again since the prices and options are reasonable.

I stood around the pick up area next to the entrance and tried to find the button. The button was actually next to the cash registers, not close to the pick up area. Selection is quite good, most shelves are stocked. They always have something for the occasion or seasons. Coupons are a must search for before ringing up. Grab boxes did not seem to be available? Not sure if Michaels discontinued them altogether. Staff is limited as with most businesses nowadays. Store is pretty clean

Jill does not belong in customer service…read more When I went to check out there were two people in line at each of their two registers. Gal in front of me had a price check which Jill acted like was a huge inconvenience to come over and do. The other register was dealing with a return with no receipt which the cashier couldn't handle and Jill was too annoyed to stick around and resolve. She was too stressed by the patient gal waiting for someone to help her find a product. By the time I got to check out, Miranda, the cashier, looked about ready to cry from secondhand stress. One of my items didn't have a price tag so... price check. And guess who looked thrilled about it. And gave the COMPLETE wrong price. I had grabbed one of their 99¢ bandanas and she said $6.99. I just chose not to buy that rather than argue because it wasn't worth talking to Jill. Miranda was great and very apologetic but I honestly felt bad leaving her with that kind of individual manning that area. Took about ten minutes to get through checkout and Jill was still ignoring the return issue but thankfully that poor cashier was able to get another manager over who looked pretty annoyed with Jill's inaction so I feel like this is a known issue. I hate to imagine what Jill would act like with an actually angry customer if this is how she behaved with patient folks experiencing minor issues.

I had not been to Running Stitch Fabrics until my friends and I took a Sashiko 101 and 201 class…read more This shop is located in historic downtown Kent. There is on-street parking. The class offered by Running Stitch Fabrics was taught by Malinda Shirley. Malinda is a great teacher with an infectious positive energy, a lot of patience and knowledge. She brought a lot of samples and projects she has made. It was exciting to see the possibilities of incorporating sashiko into tote bags, quilts, placemats, etc. The quilt shop carries a wide assortment of notions, sashiko supplies, fabric, patterns, books and more. There are quite a few quilt samples hanging on the walls and on display in the windows. There is a long arm machine that you can rent after taking a basic longarm class or they offer long arm services. The owner Alice and her staff are very nice. I highly recommend Running Stitch Fabrics.

It's actually a stationery paradise filled with stickers, pens, calendars, and so much more. It is definitely worth a visit. ​They have testers for their pens, so you can try them all out before buying. I personally fell in love with the Lana and Tuxedo Cat items and the Houseplants collection. The store is packed with cute character goods and unique finds, making it perfect for both gifts and personal treats. ​Prices start as low as $2.75, so there's something for every budget. The staff is incredibly kind, and the atmosphere allows you to browse at your own pace. Plus, having a parking lot makes it super convenient. You're bound to find something you love here!

What a beautiful and well thought out business. I was invited to participate in their trunk show…read morethis past weekend and enjoyed pretty much everything about this yarn lover's paradise. I was immediately impressed upon entering the store. It felt as though I had crossed the other side of the wardrobe and ended up in Knitting Narnia. Shelves of beautiful fabrics, yarns, and so many more items you didn't know you needed, but now that you've seen them you just gots to have them. There are tables and chairs nestled about for groups to hang out and knit while enjoying a coffee or snack from the Firebird Cafe located in the back of the shop. The cafe has a lot of selection of sweet and savory snackums including gluten free items; however, when I asked about contamination risk for celiac peeps they weren't sure how safe it was, so I stuck to the hot chocolate which was hot..and chocolaty..and full of goodness. May I also note that they serve wine and I am just so on board with that. Wine, knitting, and someone brought their cat in on leash... I see no reason to ever leave this place. This shop offers tons of events like the one I participated in this weekend where they invite local artists to set up inside their store and peddle their wares. The excitement from their regulars the moment the doors opened was palpable. They were just all about getting their paws on the fun, beautiful, and handy items for sale. In addition to events like these, this shop stays super involved with their locals by hosting classes that range well beyond knitting and crocheting. Every individual I interacted with here brought their best energy and enthusiasm and were so upbeat I started wondering what the secret these knitters are putting in their herbal tea... and if they'd share some with me. If you're a crafty fellow definitely check this place out. You might just walk out with the find of a lifetime, some magical knitter's tea, or even get to pet a cat on a leash...the possibilities are endless.

Will only recommend when they quit profiling shoppers and when Kroger (parent company of FM) quits…read moreusing Certegy for their check system. My son is a regular shopper there. He was profiled for zero reason. He had the receipt in hand and has never shoplifted from this store. Apparently, the security person they had would do this to many people just because he thought he could. Not sure if he is there anymore. I have written checks to FM with no problem. Now, I can't since Certegy considers me (as well as my husband) "risks". Why? We both are in our 60's, have never had dishonored or bounced checks, semi retired but still working. Is it because we don't write many checks? Certegy uses AI technology. From what I have been reading, there are thousands of individuals like me who have had the same problems with this scam company, various businesses, and the banks don't understand why. The company doesn't even give valid reasons. My credit score also above 650, so that's not the problem. Kroger/FM would be doing every shopper a big favor by dropping Certegy and using another system. It is very embarrassing to have your check declined for zero reason whatsoever.

I wanted to send them a guide print to serve as a reference but they would not let me do it and no proofing available. It was a large Giclee so I was a little concerned as I have not ever worked with a lab that refused both guide print and proof. It was a reproduction of my wife's oil painting so color matching is important to us. Communication was over the phone and email so I might have gotten better service in person. A bit defensive when answering questions. Maybe it was me? or they are just too busy because they do good work at reasonable prices.
