There is a wonderful quilting store in Branson, Missouri, called Quilts and Quilts. I know that is a little south of the Ozarks but well worth the visit. I spent 4 1/2 hours there one day. They have so many samples made up and their prices were better than most. It is at the eastern end of strip (Hwy 76). Their phone number is 417-334-3243. Also, they may know about quilting trips in the Ozark area.
