Some advice for the LQS from a senior quilter with a bad back.
I have just come back from my lqs and now I have a sore back. The new location is beautiful, bright and spacious, except that 75% of the fabric on display is located on single long shelves on the floor - which required me to squat (kinda out of shape) and/or bend to see if the fabric matched what I had in mind. It would be so much more customer friendly, if the bottom shelf held baskets of fat quarters, rolls, etc,( instead of being located on top of the single shelves) and/or the fabric shelves were 18" or more higher off the floor. Marketing shows that most of us shop "eye level" and in food stores this level commands high prices. I cannot imagine that I am the only shopper who finds this "not customer friendly". Does anyone else out there pay more attention to the "eye level" products.
