    Mill End Textiles

    They are located around the Minneapolis area. Has anyone been there? Wondering what they are like.

    It takes a lot of patience to find the "good stuff" because there is so much fabric, but if a person is persistant and patient, there are bargains to be had. Sometimes I have respiratory problems in the store. piecefully, the old one

    Depends on the one you go to, I've been to the one in Eden Prairie alot and it's a nice large facility, the one in Burnsville, It's ok but I would rather go to the other, some are very cluttered and small,

    I go there whenever i need fabric. it is the closest source to me. but i almost never leave there without something i can use, even if it is not exactly what i want. each location has their own manager who can make or break the store. 'nough said.

    Makes me homesick. Is SR Harris still open? Used to love that place, if I could find anything in it.

    I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.

    I've been to the one in Eau Claire and the one in Rochester. They are great if you if you like Batiks and marbles like I do. I wait until I get one of their regular coupons for 60% off and buy what is left on a bolt. Was just there last week and got great marble for under $3 a yard!

    Nothing like that here that I know of. Sounds good, though.

    don't overlook the misprints. Some make great bindings.
