Oh, this is wonderful news I didn't know this. We sure need a great fabric shop. LavenderLime, South Terrace in Chattanooga is a great place to shop. The Staff are so friendly and helpful.

Don't forget the 7 others in the surrounding area as well!
We can never have enough fabric shops!! :) :)


I also plan to go to Knoxville, can hardly wait! :)

Seriously - I'd love to be included in any Nashville area plans!

I have a family reunion in August in Morgantown Ky. My cousins wife and I go on a "shop hop" every year. We did not find a quilt shop in Bowli ng Green but found a great one up toward Elizabethtown. We also found them scarce in Nashville, found a great one in Goodlettsville, TN. So if any of you have any shops within 100 miles or so of Bowling Green that we could visit this year, I'd love for you to PM me. Also, I used to live in Nashville in the late 50's, I was in high school. I love Tennessee and Kentucky (I was born in Louisville).

I was including both Hobby Lobby's in Chatt. & 1 in Cleveland. Sew-Bee-It in Ringgold, Hyderhangout is a small, new shop in downtown Cleveland & Swafford Fabrics in Dayton (old shop but quite a bit of fabric).
I live in the country so driving to these places are no problem, I seem to be in the middle of most areas. It takes me 30 min. to even get to the malls! Lol

And here I am...another from West Tenn....Middleton to be exact.....just a little bit too far from most things to be convenient :lol: :lol: I mostly shop in Jackson (yes, Sew Many Ideas..love Trish and her staff) and also in Corinth, Ms at the new QS there...the owner is super!

I went to the LQS in Bartlett 1 time....it was my 1st and last. She tore my fabric even though I asked her not to. :evil:

I just got back from TN. My daughter lives in Hermitage. I actually took a day to myself and drove up to the Quilt Museum in Paducah. BEAUTIFUL quilts.
Love the area around Nashville and always enjoy my visits.
We went to Franklin the last time we were in TN and I found an amazing quiltshop there in a strip mall. If I remember the name I'll let you klnow. They had TONS of Civil War fabrics (surprise!?)
