I am lucky to have several good quilt shops close to me. My favorites are
Cotton and Choclate in Thousand Oaks, Ca
Quilt Emploriam in Woodland Hills Ca
Candys Quilt Works in Reseda Ca
All are within resonable driving distance from me.
I do like to support my local quilt shops so that they will stay in business. I only shop online when I am looking for something I can't find locally.
