I am lucky enough to live in Gastonia, close to MaryJo's. I LOVE,LOVE,LOVE it there. I have met and talked with MaryJo and she is a hard working woman. She will tell you that she never buys anything that she would not use herself. Her prices are good and the quality GREAT. LOts of Batiks (take a look at the ones with gold and silver) and lots of novelties. If you are interested in reupholstering, there is plenty of that as well.And of course, bridal and........It just goes on and on. You will have fun. Her fusible pellon is the best price around.Have fun and take plenty of $$$$. Donna
