    And no I am not texting and driving at the same time.

    I'll be watching the responses here. DH and I are thinking of spending a long weekend in Stockbridge Mass.

    Have a great week, Jillaine!

    Moses House quilt shop in Keene NH.

    Can you make it to Keepsake Quilting - well worth the trip. They are in Center Harbor NH in the lakes region.

    In Chester VT there is a shop called Country Treasures - room after room after room of amazing fabrics - over 8000 bolts! A whole second floor room dedicated to quilters flannel. Wonderful staff. They usually have "firecrakers" this time of year - 20 FQ for $35 I think it's their anniversary sale.

    Their website is .... vermontquilting.com

    HAVE FUN!

    I have been here and believe me, I needed oxygen when I walked into the store. I started hyperventilating - no kidding, it is an AMAZING store, Sue - the owner if just great. I had to come back the next day when I could see clearly.

    since you are driving north.
    "Notion to Quilt" is at Shelburn Falls, Ma. It is west from Greenville on Rt 2 toward N Adams. just a few miles down the road west. Very nice shop. Osgoods in West Springfield (on Rt 20) is interesting. It is primarily a drapery and upholstery shop but has lots of quilting fabrics and lower price than shops.

    Moses House no longer sells fabric; Russ just repairs machines and offers longarm
    New England Fabrics in Keene
    Quilters Workshop in Newprt,NH - good selection, nice people
    Quilted Threads in Henniker, NH - fabulous selection, also nice folks
    The Textile Company in Greenfield, Mass- vast collection of fabric
    Country Treasures in Chester, VT - huge selection
    Southampton Quilts in Southampton, Mass - haven't been there in a while but have always had a good selection
    I'm not a Keepsake fan, but if you've never been, worth the trip just for the experience.

    Tried to find the name and location again. Found a partial email exchange that was no help and then accidentally deleted it.

    Their email address begins "picfarmdesigns."


    Sorry I can't help any better than that.
