She started ordering more and more fabric and before long, Kristen found that fabric was taking over her entire house. \u00a0She had to decide what the next step was going to be. Since she had always wanted to have her own business, Kristen decided to take the plunge and open a brick and mortar fabric shop a year and a half ago \u00a0in Kirkland, Washington that today is a 2000 sq. feet.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/road2ca.com\/blog\/vendors\/meet-2017-vendor-circa-15-fabric-studio\/attachment\/circa-15-store\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4425\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4425\" src=\"https:\/\/road2ca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/circa-15-store-1024x391.png\" alt=\"circa-15-store\" width=\"625\" height=\"239\" \/><\/a>\nOriginally from the bay area in California, Kristen has lived in Washington for the past five years. Kristen and her fianc\u00e9e \u00a0have been engaged for 1 year, but haven\u2019t found the time to plan a wedding because she is so busy with her store. \u00a0They hope to get married sometime in 2017.\nKristen loves to bake and cook but doesn&#8217;t have much time to bake these days. \u00a0She actually went to culinary school for baking and pastry, many years ago. Kristen does love quilting and spends most of her \u201cfree\u201d time sewing samples for the shop.\nBeing a part of the quilting, sewing and crafting community is something Kristen really enjoys. &#8220;Every day I get to chat with such creative and generous people.\u00a0 I love seeing what people make with the fabrics they buy from us.\u00a0 I love helping someone choose fabric for a quilt or project they are working on.\u00a0 I love the look on customer\u2019s faces when they walk into the shop for the first time, and see all the beautiful samples and fabrics.&#8221; \u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/road2ca.com\/blog\/vendors\/meet-2017-vendor-circa-15-fabric-studio\/attachment\/circa-15-boothb\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-4423\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-4423\" src=\"https:\/\/road2ca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Circa-15-boothb-1024x630.jpg\" alt=\"circa-15-boothb\" width=\"625\" height=\"385\" \/><\/a>\nCirca 15 Fabric Studio is excited to bring their unique style to a whole new group of people.
