I live in Arkansas and travel to Hot Springs quite frequently. There are not any quilt stores that I am aware of down there? If there were, they have probably shut down due to the economy. That's what happened to my city, which is not far from there. NOW, if you were to travel about 2 1/2 - 3 hours north, then you could go to Jonesboro where Marshall's Dry Goods is. Wonderful store! I got Free Spirit, Heather Bailey, Moda, etc. fabrics there for $1.98 a yard! I came home with 72 yards of name-brand stuff! Cannot beat this place.
