What area of Rochester will you be visiting? In the actual city or one of the outlying suburbs? Just asking, because it sounds like you might not have a car to get around.
We used to live near Rochester and loved to go to Fabrics & Findings, but they closed and then reopened with mostly home decor type things. I've heard that Patricia's Fabric House in East Rochester is really great for quilt shoppers. I wish I could tell you more, but will be watching your post avidly to see if anyone has answers for you. My son goes to college there and it would be nice to visit some quilt shops when he is busy and we're there.
Hope you have a great time visiting your friend!
