Also, we will be driving from Nashville through Clarksville to Hopkinsville, KY on a "memory run", as we lived outside Ft. Campbell when I was 10 and have never been back. Does anyone know of any quilt stores in Clarksville or Hopkinsville?

Granny B's is in Dickson. It is in the process of moving to a new location next to Hobby Lobby. Contact Faye at http://www.granny-b.com/gbstore/ for more details.

Oh I loved Granny B's. I did a Google search to find the name of the little tea room that was also in Dickson and was sad to see it closed in 2009. It was a darling little place.

There are a number of quilt shops in the Nashville area. The Textile shop in Berry Hill is in the process of closing its shop for a move to a new location. They have nice a bit pricey fabrics for garments and quilting. Currently fabric is 50% off. Contact them when in Nashville to see if the shop is still open or if they've changed their hours.

Other places to stop:

Franklin:

The Quilting Squares on Hwy 31

Sewing Machine Station Cool Springs Mall area on Seaboard Lane (plaza across from Costco next to Classy Cat furniture store)...open TU-SA. In the back (classroom area) there are nice sale fabrics.

Stitcher's Garden in the plaza on Royal Oaks Blvd. between Trees and Trends and Big Lots(used to be called the K-mart plaza) --Word of warning.....This place is jammed packed with fabric. If you have difficulty walking it may not be convenient for you. It's worth a look-see though.

Murfreesboro has a number of shops outside of the center of town. I haven't been there lately. There are beautiful homes near Murfreesboro's town center too.

Quilt Connection
Mid-South Sewing
Absolutely Fun Sewing
are some.

Go to http://www.rowbyrowexperience.com/ and click on start here. Although the RowByRow event doesn't start until June there are a number of quilt shops posted for states you will be traveling through.

That's how I'm planning my summer vacation. :0)

Someone named a lot of my favorite places, eating and finding fabrics. For eating, Loveless Café and for fabric, Whittles absolutely cannot be beat, and for a LQS, Quilter's Attic in Goodlettsville. I haven't been to any of the ones in Franklin and Murfreesboro, but will soon; and the little eating place in Columbia is on our list of things to do soon. Have fun. And if you find any good ones on your own, let us hear of them.

Thank all of you for your suggestions....My grand daughter wants to go to the Bluebird café, hope I can get tickets. I will have to try some restaurant suggestions, I am printing out this list so I don't forget any of your suggestions...I have been to Whittles and it is a great place to shop, hoping to stop there on my way home.
