My fond memories of purchasing fabric...I learned to sew, making my own clothes, at age nine. We shopped at a large "Joann's" and at the JC Penny's. When I married and moved to a small Texas town, there was a Mott's store in the downtown area that had fabric and yarn. I bought the fabric for my very first quilt there...a baby quilt to welcome our first. I really miss those old stores...wooden floors, warm cozy knooks where fabric was displayed, and such friendly, helpful people. Sometimes I wish I had a time machine to travel back to those days...if for nothing else, just the experience of purchasing fabric in such a store......sometimes we just don't know how good we had it back then!!

Thanks for the walk down memory lane
