We had a lovely visit to PEI the summer after my mom died (2002). Yes, there were potato fields everywhere, but they were in bloom and it was fun to ride over the rolling roads to see different things. We stayed up toward the northwest corner, near the Anne of Green Gables area and enjoyed the beaches and lobster suppers and just the quiet beauty of the island. We tend to like the more natural areas instead of the touristy places. The people were so nice and it was just what I needed after my loss. We did find one fabric place, but I don;t remember where or the name, sorry. Hope you have a lovely time!
