I like a little shop in Pike Place, and have taken the ferry across the bay to Bremerton(?) for a visit to their quaint little quilt shop. My favorite place when I come to the Sew Expo (usually held the end of Feb/first of March in Pullyallup) is to hang out at Pacific Fabric and Crafts. Love those ladies! I think they have a shop hop in the Seattle area, not sure when, but enjoy!!
