How nice to have a new shop close to you. Great customer service will keep them busy and successful. Perhaps you can take a class or teach a class there.
I have 3 LQS that I frequent. The one that sells and services my machine has two shops. One is 27 miles to the the south in the next county. I drove there Saturday to pick up my machine. I purchased the upgrade and a new magnetic hoop too. The sister store (same owners) is 22 miles to the north of me in the county. There were 3-5 classes each month that I attended there. Classes are on hold for now. I am happy to be halfway between both stores. They are like home.
Saturday I also drove to another store again in county to the north. I needed a fabric line that she carried for a BOM quilt. That purchase was for fourteen plus yards. The owner does the LA quilting for me on my quilts. A place just like home too.
Yes, I will drive for great customer service from them all.
