Winter in Pinellas Park. I visit in Englewood as my cousin lives there.

Someone mentioned Rainbow's end. That is a nice store, very big and pricy. I like the one in Clearwater better. County Quilts and Bears. I also like the one in Oldsmar, it has two names, one being something with apple in it. They vendor a lot of the quilt shows.
