As someone commented previously, Memphis has one of the highest robbery and crime rates in the US. Do not take the bus tours as the clients are targeted. Memphis reports at least one murder a day.
The Memphis Zoo is a world class zoo. The Pink Palace is a hands-on museum that is very interesting. Beale Street is known for the Blues, restaurants and night clubs but also high crime and shootings.
Memphis has very few quilt shops. Bartlett has one, Klassy Kats, off of Stage Rd.
I moved from Memphis because of the extremely high crime rate. My mother, best friend and brother have all been robbed at gunpoint.
