I feel blessed that our rural county is able to support 3 LQS--one is open weird hours but does carry lots of batiks and has some classes. The other 2 do bustling businesses but frankly, knowing both the owners, they work hard, long hours. Both keep up with social media, are constantly working on samples for the shop (both do have a couple of people that help with this), etc. so when another quilt shop about 40 min away announced they were closing after 25+ yrs, I could certainly understand.
