Headed to New Mexico and Colorado-any tips on shops?

Well, it's a little last minute, but we are flying into Albuquerque tomorrow, driving to Crested Butte, Co and returning via Santa Fe for a few days and then back to Albuquerque to fly home. My DH has researched quilt shops, but if anyone has a suggestion I would love to have it. Thanks so much.

You might try shopping at Julie's in NM.

In Albuquerque - Quiltworks, on Menaul and Juan Tabo - great classes, great fabrics and notions, wonderful, knowledgable, fun (!) people. This is where I learned to quilt.

In Santa Fe - Santa Fe Quilting, on Cielo, more great fabrics and notions, some different things than Quiltworks so ideally you get to go to both.

Also in Albuquerque - Southwest Decoratives/Kokopelli Quilts - 5711 Carmel Ave, NE, Suite B - they emphasize southwestern fabrics and great southwestern themed patterns, also if you get lonesome for southwestern once you're back home, they have a great online store as well at www.swdecoratives.com

I see you are from Sugar Land, TX so I doubt you'll get lonely for southwestern! I've been there, nice place but HOT!
