My LQS has an additude too....If your local and don't spend alot you get "the look"...I do buy at other shops at a distance but I don't like the additude I get locally
-------------------------------------
I've noticed that "look" at a few out of town quilting shops. Since I'm an older
lady (76) and no longer give a damn about fashion, I dress comfortably in
jeans and, since I have a very bad ankle, lace up cowboy roper boots, plus a
Tee shirt. I don't look like I could afford a new spool of thread, so I'm ignored
often, which does leave me time to search out the fabrics I want.
But at our local Joann's, one of the young girls working there couldn't answer
my question about what bobbin my new Brother used=different from my Singer= so she whipped out her own cell phone, got on the Internet, found my
machine and the bobbin it used. Then of course she sold me a large amount of
them so I wouldn't run out of colors!! And I filled out a page they gave me for
her to be honored (or whatever they do to their employees), she really did deserve it. Should have more like her.
