Mes Amis is great and they've had some fabric on sale 35% off until she sells out. Also there is the Quilted Owl on Jefferson Hwy and Bright Hopes Quilt Shop on the northshore of Lake Pontchartrain (about a 45 minute drive from New Orleans but a lovely drive across the lake-$3 toll to get back). There's also a Hobby Lobby on the northshore. I think you'll be happy with all three. Nice ladies at all shops.
