I love the idea of a sitting area. I also can't stress enough friendly, helpful staff. My pet peeve is to ask quilting questions and be treated as if I am asking for some kind of 'trade secret'. One LQS I visited didn't want to answer my question-she handed me a flyer and said I could sign up for the class if I wanted to know how to do that. I also would like to see a good selection of tonals and blender fabrics. Plus, and this is just a personal one, I find it really hard to find a good selection of themed fabric AND coordinates. Some LQSs just get the cutsey prints but none of the matching fabrics. Finally,if you can do it, an online store would be awesome. Then we can all shop at your store!
