I have just recently discovered a LQS within 10kms (7 miles) of my place that I didn't even know existed. I have been living in this area for nearly 4 years so I can't believe it took that long to find E&E Creations in Newton. It is a very usual little store. She is the community post office, variety store, quilt shop and Pfaff dealer all rolled into one. Out of her building she also runs classes and sells completed projects (quilts,etc) Fabric inventory is not large but excellent quality and the owner/operator is extremely knowledgeable. You can give her dimensions of a project and she can calculate sashing or binding yardages in seconds (now that is talent) I also have nearby Fabricland and Len's Mills where is inventory is larger, but you can't beat the personal touch of your LQS
