The Hodgepodge

What a beautiful store they have in Salinas. They have wonderful homemade textiles. I bought a beautiful woven scarf that I can't wait to wear for Christmas. If you get a chance stop in and buy something from them. They even send you home with a cute handmade bag.

I stopped in to this store today and what a gem. In the front section are crafts. I found very unique items and they were reasonably priced. In the back was a very nice selection of fabric and quilting notions. I was very pleased to find good quality 100% cotton fabric... starting at 5.50 per yard. They have a decent selection of jelly rolls and layer cakes. I bought some Schmetz needles, Bloody Mary mix and homemade soap. I will definitely be going back.

Not only are there treasures to be found at Hodgepodge made by local crafters but the warm welcome that greets you every time you walk thru the door makes one want to come back!

Daughter and I found this shop to be a delightful place. Excellent staff, mother and daughter, very knowledgeable, very pleasant. A must stop for any quilter of s shopper of good, quality made items at extremely affordable prices. Huge selection of products.

This is an amazing little store in the historic district of Salida. Almost everything is locally handmade. Everyone that works there are all creatives that are making things. They truly enjoy what they are doing. You are offered coffee, cookies, tea, water. They are so good about pointing out historic tidbits, handing out maps and just making you feel so welcome. The prices are unbelievably reasonable and they wrap everything in these wonderful cloth shopping bags. It is one block off the main shopping district downtown but well worth turning the corner and discovering this gem....

Worth checking out all that they have. Joi makes the best aprons and beer shirts, lol.

This store is a treasure trove of handmade items that you won't find anywhere else! The people are genuinely friendly and love what they are doing....you will feel so welcome here you'll want to spend hours checking out their huge variety. The store itself feels spacious with light streaming in from the large front window and the skylights that make the area seem even bigger. Since they have moved from the small (tiny!) house they were located previously, they have added a fabric room in the back that will please all of us fabric "addicts" to no end. The prices are extremely reasonable and the quality of the handmade items is excellent. If you're visiting Salida, make it a must stop in your schedule. You can have lunch across the street at Firefly to complete your day.
