I also don't buy like I used to. I have so much of everything and want to at least put a dent in it before I die
We had for many years a wonderful quilt shop then she sold it and moved to Florida. The new owners only lasted a couple of years. There are a few others but honestly I don't go hardly at all. I've become an online shopper. I feel bad for not supporting the local shops but the convenience and prices online are what I like. Having said this I spent many years at quilt shops so I did support them.
Paducah is a great show. I haven't been lately but I hear it's still good.
