Oops! I really mean "Another STORE closing"! So much for not proofreading!

Yes! It is sad that we are losing our local quilt stores. A lovely one closed Saturday that was 35 miles from me. They had a wonderful variety of fabrics, notions, and patterns. The owners claimed it was due to problems with a lease, but I am wondering if they lost out too much business to a big craft store opening that has fabric. The quilt shop gals were always ready to assist you if you had a question. You won't get that at the big craft store.
After 17 years in business she is retiring! Job well done! Dont we all want to retire some day? I am still a few years away myself.

We have one closing here too. She says she is competing against the internet and losing. Nothing like touching the fabric!

Also one closing in Montana ----Quilts in the Country in Bozeman
So many of these ladies are retiring. Hope she enjoys her retirement.
A Good Friend, like an old quilt, is both a Treasure and a Comfort
Guess she couldn't find anyone to buy it....

It's just sad! but of course, we all need our rest, also, I think it's very costly, everything just very high, fabrics, notions, utilities, just name a few, Big competition, I wish all of them the best of everything!
