This is great info!
Thank you, everyone.
I have a meeting in Plano from 1-3 and fly out at 9:40.
Once I map them, I'll figure out which ones I think I can get to - and have dinner before my flight out!

Googlemaps says that it's about 45 min from the airport to Plano without traffic accounted for -

Mary QC,
I'm hoping to get to the quilt asylum around 330.
can you give me some advice on the afternoon commute?
I have to be at the airport by 830... should i wait until 7 or 730 to get back to Dallas?

There is a bunch of construction going on between McKinney and the airport. 7 would probably be safer.

I'll try to meet you at the quilt shop. I'm short. Gray hair. I'll wear jeans and a denim jacket.

There is a new quilt shop in downtown Plano on 15th street. the ones in McKinney are both wonderful. As far as commute, look up directions on mapquest and double the amount of time they say it takes.

There is also a very nice quilt store in Carrollton not too far away. It's in old downtown and it's also the post office.

There is also a large (and nice) quilt store at Fox and I-35 and I believe that it's in Lewisville.

There are many stores within a few minutes drive of that area. You can do your own "shop hop" without the crowds.

Love love love this store and I am a regular there. Batiks are $8 a yard and great quality. Also enjoy the Blue Ribbon Quilt Shoppe in Wylie (10 mins from Plano) and the Quilt Asylum in McKinney (15-20 mins from Plano). These are the 3 main shopping areas that are worth the trip in the area.
