I live in Destin Fl. and recently went to Gulf Shores to shop the fabric stores. All of them had closed except for Fabric by the Pound. I was in Fairhope for the festival recently and saw advertising fora LQS. I stopped by Hobby Lobby and Hancocks and got some fabric. If I see I'm coming your way, I'll let you know. My quilting buddy from Ct. just left. She will be here again in a few months. She is a member of this Forum too. We are always up for a roadtrip. You are so close to Mobile, you should find lots of places to shop. Hopefully you can find someone close by. At least closer than me. LOL Faye
