DH and I just got back from a 5 week trip around America (well part of it). He was very good at stopping when we spotted a shop. The following are the ones I shopped at.
Stitching Nook, Richmond IN
Tree City Stitches, Greensburg, IN- a new shop that is very nice
Corner Quilts and Gifts, Wauseon, OH
Kathy's Fabric Trunk, DelNorte, CO
Beaver Mountain Quilts, Sourth Fork CO
Came home with a nice selection of fabric, patterns and tools. Now to find time to start sewing again.
I can recommend all of the above shops for their selection and for very nice staff.
