The only one I'm aware of that is "can't miss" in that area in Mary Jo's in Gastonia, NC (Google it to be sure...). Sorry I

I have had rotten service with Mary Jo's on line. Hope it is better in person for you.

The shop that come to mind is Wish Upon A Quilt, but not sure if it's out of your way.

Mary Jo's is in the opposite direction from DC - west of Charlotte.

Wish Upon a Quilt is closer to 40 & 70 than to 85.

I have heard that G Street Fabrics in Maryland is a not-to-be-missed.

http://www.gstreetfabrics.com/

I see on their website that they are also in Virginia.
