Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I'm going back to the Midwest for my husband's family reunion. Part of the negotiation was stopping at quilt stores along the way. We're landing in Chicago and driving to the UP (Marquette, Michigan) next week. Please provide some of your favorite local quilt stores. Thanks in advance.
I'm from the eastern side of the state, but will be watching this post for info for our next vacation. There are several board members from the UP, hope they chime in with their favorites.

There is an be absolutely awesome quilt shop, if you will be traveling on US 23 north, just north of AuGres I think. It is called either BayView or BaySide quilting. I've seen the sign for years, and finally stopped in just a month or so ago. Wound up spending several hours, and WAY too much money. The shop is not really well represented by their sign - ignore that and stop in if you are in the area. You won't be sorry.
Of all the things I've lost I miss my mind the most!
Here might be some along your way - the Green Bay area is lucky to have several within a few miles of each other.

Sadly, there are no quilt shops in Milwaukee nor in north or south suburbs. I don't live there but visit often (1/2 hour away). I find that so hard to believe for a major city.
So don't plan on stopping in Milwaukee.
