A few shops I would recommend around the Phoenix area are Sun Valley Quilts, which is just down the road from AZ Quilts, 35th Avenue Sew and Vac on Northern (huge selections), Mulqueens Mesa location where fabrics are $6.95 a yard. Mulqueens carries loads of quilting/embroidery supplies at good prices, all of the Kona Cotton colors, and batiks. There are loads of great shops in Tucson, Prescott area, and Sedona as well. If you need the names of those shop PM me and I'll be happy to share.
