Where in ND are you opening a shop? I try to hit them all a couple times a year and would love to add you to my list.

I live in a small town of about 2000 people, so need to be a little diverse.

However, I also plan to have a small play area for kids and also a couple of VERY comfy chairs and sitting area for anyone wanting to just come in and visit, take their time shopping, or for the weary hubby who is waiting. :)

I'll post more as I get closer to opening... and I would LOVE to meet each and every one of you in my shop or otherwise! HUGS to you all.

If you have the space, think about having 2 to 4 long tables where you could either have some classes or 1 day a week for a sit & sew group. This would bring in people to share ideas, projects, etc.

Comfy chairs, if you have a big sofa, one hubby might stretch out and take in all the room lol, who cares if they snore, as long as they let you shop. I'm sure most hubbys and wives too, snore at home. At least my hubby says I snore like a bear, lol.

I have a business. Or should I say trying to get it going. My web page is: familyquilters.vpweb.com My girlfriend and I are doing it together. My quilts are all hand tied. But I am learning to hand quilt and will have more to post by the end of summer.
Be sure to fill out the form that you have been there.

Thank you ahead of time for looking.

I too would like some kind of list of quilt shops.

Just realized that I had pressed enter before finishing.

I would definitely give my support to fellow board members first. After all, we are a close group! :) :) :)

Come out, come out, whereever you are! :thumbup:
