Some of the great shops I've shopped in are (in no particular order): Somewhere Sewing in Johnson City, TN; Tennessee Fabrics in Jonesborough, TN; Mamaws Quilting in Knoxville, TN; Roosters in Maryville, TN (now closed); and a new one, Mountain Creek Quilting in Greenback, TN. After meeting some of the people from Batiks Etc at the quilt show, I'll be stopping in at Wytheville, VA on my way to visit my DD in Hagerstown, MD where I like to shop at Wilsons, already mentioned on this thread. I'd also like to send a thumbs up to a few of the ladies at JoAnn's in Knoxville who were so helpful in ordering drapery material for me this past Spring.
