I think they have one in Framingham as well,,, i'm in Middleboro, MA Oakpoint.. (retirement comm.)... having fun just doin' nothing, but what i want... LOL..
I work just a few miles from the one in Dorchester so sometimes go during my lunch break.

What do you think? Do you think the fabrics are the same quality as in an LQS? For example, the Andover fabrics...the LQS has Andover lines but - maybe it's all in my head - the Andover at sewfisticated feels flimsier.

I've asked in other posts if it's possible that a manufacturer has different qualities for different levels of retail. Most people say no, one person suggested the printing might be on a different level of fabric. Others have suggested that the pricing reflects old lines of fabric.

Either way, I'll be buying there to make pillowcases for donation since I can't afford LQS prices for that.
