Well I thought I'd pick those up once I got there.

P.S. I have been known to mail my clothes home to fit vacation finds in my suitcase.

Would you give the adress of M&L Fabrics again, please. I know Buena Park, but the address itself. Thanks

It would be the ultimate national shop hop!

If people pay enough to go on a quilting cruise, couldn't we find enough to charter a plane and fly around the country to all the best quilt shops? I would be so tempted....

For those who asked, the Fieldstone House is in Sidney Center, NY. It's just off Route 88 between Albany and Binghamton. It really is something to see. The fabric is stacked everywhere, and the aisles are so narrow it's claustrophobic.

The first time I went there, I was completely overwhelmed and left without buying anything. I've been back since and rectified that behavior :wink: , but it is almost too much.

Conveniently located about 20 miles west of Charlotte, right off the highway (Interstate 85). :wink:
