Ladies: You have made my evening. Hubby and I try to get to Maine every September but having a 17 year old dog has kept us close to home for the past 3 years. I can't wait to check out a Mardens and thanks for the suggestion. Has anyone been to Reny's? No fabric but a lot of fun to poke around in and the stores are all over at least the southern coast of Maine. There's a great quilt shop on Route 12 north of Kittery called Knights. Have been told about a new one that has sprung up in Freeport called Cotton Weeds but I can't vouch for it. Who says folks only go to Maine for the beach and lobsters!!!
