Another vote for The Quilt Barn in Puyallup!!! They are wonderful and have a fantastic selection!

Sad to say, but the Calico Cat has closed. One of the employees opened her own shop in Kent called Running Stitch Fabric. It is at 213 1st street in downtown Kent. Just starting out, but a nice selection.

Get yourself out to Bellevue to Quiltworks Northwest. It is close to Seattle and easy to find. Lots of selection.

Too bad about Calico Cat - I wonder what happened? Anyway, when I go up next month I will go to the Bellevue shop - since I'm going to Bellevue Square anyway. Might go to Running Stitch since my brother lives in Kent. Thanks for the info.

Mary's husband died of cancer. A year or so later she went on a cruise and met a wonderful man. She decided she would say yes when he asked her to marry him! After 30 years of working in the quilt business, she was just tired. She tried to sell, but no one bought the place, so she just closed. It was very sad. I cried a lot and she hugged me a lot. But I couldn't change her mind. LOL!
