There is are a couple nice shops about 20 min from my house, in opposite directions, though! There is also a JoAnn's about 20 mins away in another direction. I tend to go to the one shop that is right behind my son's house. Not only do I get to see him and/or his dog if they're home, but I just like the shop better.
We've some close due to ecomonic reasons lately, which is sad. They weren't as close to me, but worth the drive once in a a while. Have very many closed near anyone else?
