that is one thing about some of the LQS I don't understand. The sewing center down the road from me sells quite a few brands of sewing machines and thread but little inventory for fabric. I asked why and the owner stated she didn't want to compete with the fabric shops so she sells more notions and equipment. They also have an onsite machine repair person whose father was also a machine repair person. Their embroidery thread is more for machine embroidery.
