Another shop in McKinney is Quilt Asylum-right off Hwy 75-Mckinney is about 30 min north of Dallas-but lots of highway construction is going on in the area. If You like batiks-Fabric Fanatics is in Plano-15-20 min north off of Hwy 75. Its on Haggard in sort of a wharehouse business building- Their batiks run about $9.95-its all batiks.

Another smaller shop in Dallas off Plano Road and Kingsley is Quilters Connection-
There is Fabric Affair in Richardson (small-mostly machines) off Coit and Beltline.
The larger shops that I know of are Quilt Asylum, Happiness is Quilting-Pat Sloan is giving 3 classes there starting the 16th. Quilt Mercantile in Celeste is great-love it-but it is a drive and in a small country town. It is a jog to get there from Dallas.
If Fort Worth -Cabbage Rose is great and there are some other shops in Denton, Carrolton and Lewisville-all within driving distance but a bit of a jog also. Depending on where you will be in Dallas-they maybe closer. These are west of Dallas and a tad north.
For shopping--you could go to North Park off 75 and Northwest Hwy-a trendy indo mall.
Or go to Halfprice books off Northwest Hwy-for a jaw dropping new/used book experience-love that place.
Are you flying out of Love Field or DFW
Also most of the quilt shops are closed on Sundays-enjoy Dallas-I lived there over 30 yrs
