Hello Jan,
I live about 30 minutes from Altoona. There is new one in downtown Hollidaysburg. I will get the name for you and the address. Country Beefers in Martinsburg, I go ther often great quilt and gift shop. Google it for directions. In my hometown of Bedford there is Unique Stitches. She sells lots of Batiks. On the outside of Bedford about 12 miles out there is Sewing Solutions. Not a huge variety but an up and coming shop always adding more lines and fabric.
