I just had to answer this one. :) We only have 1 quilt store in town now and a Fabricland. The service at the lqs if far and away the best I have ever experienced. They welcome anyone including children and husbands. The shop has a small dog that keep the children happy and there is a sitting area for those not interested in fabric. They offer classes of all kinds and the numbers are kept small for personal attention. They will order anything you want as long as they can find it. I love to go online and look at the items available, but will go to IBEA's Quilting & Crafts before ordering online. I've only had to order a few times because they were not able to find the item. This is a mother and daughter owned store and it is one of the best I have ever been in.
