Welcome to North Carolina....there's a charming old coaching inn-turned-restaurant in Old Salem...and perhaps best of all, you'll be within striking distance of Mary Jo's fabric store in Gastonia (probably two and half hours or so from W-S)---it's Mecca for quilters---a billion or so bolts of fabric, notions, tools, and everything at great prices...don't miss it...
I'm in Beech Mountain, and the local quilt guild travels two hours to descend on Mary Jo's and would happily travel further, I'm sure....
