Yankee Cloth
Wallingford, Connecticut
A downtown Wallingford quilt shop owned by a 32-year quilter, known for reproduction fabrics like Civil War-era prints.
Yankee Cloth sits in downtown Wallingford, owned and run by a quilter with more than thirty-two years in the craft — the kind of hands-on ownership that means the person choosing the fabric on the shelves has actually pieced with fabric like it for decades.
The shop's specialty is reproduction fabric, including Civil War-era prints, which is a specific and well-loved niche among quilters who like their fabric to look like it came out of an antique trunk rather than off a current trend chart. With around 3,000 bolts in stock, there's real depth behind that specialty, not just a token selection.
Quilting clubs give regulars a reason to keep coming back, and with an owner this experienced running the shop day to day, it's the kind of place where the person behind the counter can talk fabric history as easily as ring up your purchase.
