Went to pick up my BOM today to discover my favorite LQS is closing next month and moving to Indiana. It's great for her since she'll be real close to her aging parents but her customers here in MI will miss her terribly. The MI economy beat her up pretty bad this past year so she decided to move her shop. So, as soon as she gets set up, I'll let those of you near her know. Deb is such an awesome mentor and incredible with designing quilts and helping to pick out fabrics. I am SO Bummed!!! But she's gotta do what's best for her and I wish her all the luck in the world !!

How interesting... My local quilt shop is also closing. Just went to her sale today and it was a nut house in there. Sure wish I would have had a little more cash on me though. The owner told me that the cost of fabric is getting to be too much and she cannot afford to keep her shop stocked enough. These are sad times a- comin and it's only going to get worse.

She said it's off I-94 near Michigan City (don't remember exact city name).
