Coming to Bristol in August??????
Don't know of any shops near the track, but I live 30 miles from the track and we hope to go for the truck race if not the others. Don't have tickets for the big race (yet) ;)
There are a few shops in Johnson City - 20 + mins from track. How far out of your way are you willing to drive to shop? Actually it depends on how you come they may be on your way to the track....
I am working on opening one, but it won't be even near ready by then - maybe by the spring race! Do you come to the spring race?
There are also several of the Barn quilts in the area - Appalachian Quilt Trail.
Have a safe trip and stay in touch!

Our tickets came in the mail today! They are for the races in August. This was a big surprise for me. No, we don't go often.
Also, I don't know how he will go after we leave Murfreesboro, Tn. Stopping to see my son. He will go anywhere if we have the time.
So your going to open a quilt shop? Thats so exciting. Would like to keep up with you on your opening.
I love barn quilts. We seen several in Iowa. So cool. I didn't know what they were at first.
