    I'm no help for the USA side!!
    ... any chance you'll scout out any of Southern Ontario's LQS' while en route to and fro?


    FavoriteFabrics (a poster here) and has a online fabric business by the same name. I'm not sure if you can "visit" her location, of if she's only online?
    And I know I've seen a couple of other posters from the greater Niagara area.

    There are 2 shops in the Niagara area on the US side, however, I like the one in Niagara Falls, Canada. Both shops on the US side aren't much to look at nor do they have much, but that's just my opinion. The one in Canada is in sort of a residential area and it is FANTASTIC!!!!! Lots of inspiration and some unique patterns. It isn't a huge shop, but when we travel from NH to MI, we always try to stop at the shop in Niagara, Canada. Another shop, if you have the time, is the Fabric Garden in East Amherst, NY. It isn't too far of a drive from Niagara, and I LOVE that shop.

    Yes do go to Favorite Fabrics. I stop when ever I am visiting my Mom in Buffalo. It is an on -line shop but they let people come in and shop. Make sure you check the hours before heading in that direction,as they are an on-line and don't keep regular retail hours. Its worth the side trip.

    Well, that's a good report on the Canadian side!
    By chance do you know the name?
    Also, for the USA ones, if by chance not mentioned in KimmieH's list.

    Maybe FavFabrics will see this thread and check in!
