Heard about a shop that sells fabric really cheap, so off I go to see what it is all about. OH MY GOSH!!!!! They have flat folds for $1.49 a yd. you must buy at least 1yd. Then they have Henry Glass, Along the Fence Row for $2.49 a yd. They had so many cordinating colors. I bought over $100 worth. What beautiful fabric. I am very fussy about my fabric & this stuff was great. He & his brother buy overstocks . He also had some beautiful batiks for $2 something a yd. I don't use them but what a buy. Henry Glass sells for $8 to 9 in the QS. The great thing about this shop is it was just opened by a guy & his wife who are 82 & 83 yrs. young. Never done any thing like this before.I give them alot of credit. It doesn't appear that they need the money, just wanted to do something. Am telling everyone I know about them.
He gets new in all the time. His brother was on his way home from the mills with another truck load. Can't wait to see what is new. Donna, The Rustic Quilter |
Wow! You are so lucky! I wish I lived nearby to take advantage of those batik prices. :)
|
Do they have a online shop ???????
|

|
Hey Donna,
Where in Missouri are you?? I'm in the Kansas City area and am always willing to drive for a good deal....and it sounds like this is a GREAT deal!! jodi in leavenworth |
Where are they?????? I am in MO and would love to find them.
|
What is the name of the shop??
|
I want to know too. My brother lives in Pittsburg KS
|
I'm in MO also. Would love to know where they're located.
|
They are inThayer Mo. Right on the Ark. border. They are only 24 miles from me. They do not have a web site, guess older people think they are too hard to use. HA!!!
The Henry Glass fabric is to die for. What quality. They also have alot of Joanne's fabric. He said Joanne's commissions the mill to make so much for them & when they make it they have extra, so this guy sells it to this shop Hope this helps .Donna, The Rustic Quilter |
Thank goodness it's in MO I would have blown my sewing machine money!! Great find!!
|
Quiltforme, You are so funny.
|
What great deals, wish I were closer!
|
Oh dear, that's a little too far south for me!
|
Sounds like you found a great find. :thumbup:
What is the name of the shop? Thanks in advance. :thumbup: |
Can you please tell us the name of the shop?
|
Wow, that's fantastic!
And how cute for an elderly couple to open a shop, huh??? Really sweet. Wish I could shop there and meet them! :D |
Seek and ye shall find!
|
The name of the shop is: Thayer Fabric very original Huh??? Phone # is: 417-280-6136 Guy & his wife are: Lawrence & Imogene Porter. Great people. Don't think they could keep up with the internet as their stock seems to change quickly.
Hope this helps. Donna, The Rustic Quilter |

luvtooquilt, You asked about the quilt shops around here. I have been to West Plains, Willlow Springs, Cabool, Mt View. Have not been to the ones in Mansfield, Seymore & Mt Grove.
My girlfriend & I are going this week-end to Ozark & springfield, Mo. Love the shop in Ozark. Want to plan a trip to Rogers, Ark & down in there as there are some nice shops around there. They were at the Springfield Quilt show this past fall. |
I just checked. I am 5 1/2 hours away. Don't think DH will go for that. lol
Angie |
I'm in CA and SO willing to go on a F.A.R.T.!!!
Why don't you suggest that they get online, maybe give them some names of people who can help with that? The rest of us are so anxious and eager! |

Yes, do you know the name of the shop?
|
I just read the post about the quilt shop in Thayer MO. I was born in Wilderness Mo (74 years ago) and have been in Thayer many times. I have many relatives who still live in Alton MO and surrounding areas. My brother and I go to MO each year for Memorial Day, so I plan to look up the fabric shop. I enjoy looking at this site each day.
|
Oh! you cannot forget the one in Licking!
|
Today we need to get the oil changed, so I suggested going to Thayer - I will take my camera so you can see the shop!.......if I don't forget!
West Plains - Viv's Sewing Connection Cabool - Right across the street from El Imperial - sorry forgot the name Ava - Dogwood Quilting or Fabrics |
Wow! Wish I lived closer!!
