Oh yes, I go to their big tent sale and always come away with a huge grin on my face because I always let loose and buy lots of goodies.... as well as get to know some wonderful people while standing in line. Quilters are always so friendly too!

I'm in NE AR and lived in NH three years ago. Let me know if you want to go to KQ. I know the way!

BellaBoo, so sad tha thappened to you. Make sure you sign up for the catalogs: Patternworks-yarns,, the Stitchery, all needlework and of course the Keepsake catalog. Go online and browse the shop that way whenever you feel blue. I get to Keepsake every November, as I go to aweek long retreat up that way.
I save one project to pick when I go, so I have my KQ experience all year.

They usually have in-store specials going on, so if you're planning a trip, it pays to check the website first and click on the 'visit the shop' photo.

For example, during the month of May, if you bring in a show and tell, you'll get a 15% off coupon on purchases of $25 or more (and it is wicked easy to spend $25 or more!)

It's near Lake George N.Y

I would too - however - since DH thinks driving 5 miles to Costco is a major trip, don't think I will be going there anytime soon.

I love KQ and have visited it several times. It is to say the least a bit over whelming. But when I go we have to stay overnight. I hope someday to get back there.
