Saturday we say goodbye to SPOOL – the physical store (do look for another week online very soon, at KICK ASS PRICES!) and we thought it would be fun to giveaway some fabric as a way of saying thank you for all of your support over the last three years.
We are so very excited about the expanded direction we will be taking BAQS and we will have more on that later. For now, just know that there is some really cool stuff coming including weekly giveaways, livecasts, video interviews with the people you want to know and more. Until then… let’s have some fun and give away two boxes stuffed with fabric!
One box is filled with amazing “SPOOL- Style” batiks… bright, colorful, embodying everything SPOOL was about.
The other is filled with a variety of quilting cottons that I am sure will make you smile for days after opening it.
Each box is 15 yards of fabric plus some fun BAQS swag!
Leave a comment letting us know which box makes your heart beat faster and tell us what YOU would like to see BAQS doing… I want to come visit you and party!
We will draw for the winner on SUNDAY the 16th! Comments are now closed … winners were picked and notified! Watch for our next giveaway very soon!!


I love both but the batiks are real nice. I would like tutorials. Thanks for the giveaway.

What fun! I don’t have much experience sewing with batiks, I do love the colors and would choose that stack as an outside the box experiment! As for Spool and the BAQS I appreciate the community of people and ideas they embrace. Keep sharing and doing what no one else is brave enough to do! Thanks 🙂

Love your shop and so sad about your closing. Looking forward to your new adventures. I use the key chain and love the car sticker. I hope that you continue to influence our craft in the positive way you have been and don’t disappear. Tutorials would be awesome. Either bundle would be great. Thanks for this opportunity

I’m loving on the batons…and you should do a podcast. I don’t always take time to read blogs but I listen to podcasts at work. I think you’d be awesome!

Any pkg that has come from SPOOL! But if I had to choose, the brighter ones will go gray with my Skull scraps! Thank you!

The batiks just about win for me, both are lovely. I’ve loved hearing about the less than traditional quilters and their stories from you.

Would LOVE the batiks 🙂 I can’t wait to see what you have going on next and know it will be great whatever it is. Thank you so much for the give away.

Both boxes look lovely. The Batiks make my heart gallop with glee 😀

The batiks look like they would fill in my stash with some more of the darker values, but the florals are mighty pretty… I’d be over the moon to receive either!
I’m very curious to find out what you have up your sleeve for the future–hope we’ll be finding out soon!

I really have enjoyed Spool and hope the badassery continues in another form. I like the bundle with the floral, but the batiks would be fun for Halloween.

I ❤️ batiks!
There are many great suggestions here already.
Controversial quilting, both now and through history could be an ongoing thread that takes you all sorts of places and meeting interesting people.
Interesting challenges like the rocky horror or the skin we are in are great!

Batiks are my favorite. Although either would be a delight.
I would love to see tutorials about your modern quilts.

I do love the colours in the batik box. I haven’t been with you very long but I do love your videos. Would like to wish you best of luck with your next venture.

So sad to see Spool going, before I even got to visit. Though I’m looking forward to what BAQS has next It’s hard to choose between prints & batiks, but I think it’d be the prints by a thread…

I love both boxes but I chose cotton. Sadly I only got to visit the store once but as I live in Scotland the distance proved too much for a return visit. However I’d love to share the box with my US friends who introduced me to you, So sorry to see you close.

Quilting Cottons would be lovely. BAQS should do a Route 66 road trip.

I would be all over those batiks!!! I’ve never been able to get to the store since Lincoln, Nebraska isn’t quite next door to Chattanooga – but I’m sure it would have felt like home. We do have some great LQS’s here though. The Cosmic Cow (and their second store in Seward “Cosmic Cows Udder Store”, and The Calico House are two of my favorites that keep me pretty well stashed with fabric. Good luck in your next chapter!
