GingerK and Watson ... and of course, other Canucks!
Lens ... also ... Seniors Days for those "old" enough (I think it's 60 there?) an additional 10% or is it 15% off? Can never remember if it is the 1st or last Monday. Plus they usually have a Christmas special for a week or so, where if you sing a Christmas song, you get % off. Makes for some pretty impressive and fun informal choirs as groups wait at the cash. Oddly enough, it seems people end up not being in a rush for the cashiers!!
Connecting Threads ... didn't know they offered the free shipping. At $85, that's reasonable, as SO many of our Canadian stores do not offer free, or if they do, the minimum is significantly larger, making it less desirable.
Quilter's Nook ... And I never even knew about them! Gosh darn! No, not exactly local for me, but close enough that it would have been do-able!
Undercover Quilts, Fergus ... Another closure. Never re-opened since COVID closure, staying online. Have now had a huge sell-off sale and is closed. Not sure if she is continuing online or not.
Online options are nice to have. Although I still like that touchy-feely-seeabilty and truly knowing what a fabric is!
Caroline Quilts ... Online shop where you pick up at the door. Pretty impressive prices! I've never dealt with her, but she comes highly recommended by
MaryKatherine. Close enough for me, and I know, somewhat less convenient for you two, but perhaps the $$$ is worth the drive at times?
