    I have one quilting shop in town: Went yesterday
    and there was closing signs all over it......It is a husqvarna
    shop....material was 50 per cent off.....Not much off on the machines darn it....but in a couple weeks it will go 75 per cent off if there is any left *LOL*....Now I have to drive
    30 miles to Hancocks if they ever close I will be sunk for notions.....At least Walmart carries some material.

    Our Bernina shop closed a few weeks ago. I was so disappointed! They had wonderful fabric choices and it was a great place to shop. More and more are closing every day. Know you are not alone in your sorrow!!

    What a loss! Almost know how you must be feeling. A wonderful LQS, Becky's is having a liquidation sale & will close when it's over ;(
    Still have one great LQS but Becky will be very much missed.

    So sad, more and more shops being lost. Although I buy fabric online sometimes,it is just not the same as getting to see and feel the quality first.
