Which Quilt Shops in New York State would you recommend? - ones that are definitely a must visit someday?
#1

After seeing several posts today from New Yorkers I started thinking about which Quilt Shops in NYS we would recommend to others to visit. Even though I have lived here a long time I don't have any idea about shops located outside my area. When I travel I am always on the hunt for other quilt shops to visit in NYS but I often have a limited amount of time. So which shops would you identify as "definitely one not to miss" from your area?

My next favorite is "The Joyful Quilter" in Glenville, NY. I am presently taking a class there and again, they are wonderful at teaching. So much patience! They just opened a new building, bigger and better!
Both shops have a wonderful selection of fabric, I could never choose between the two.

I'm origanally from Buffalo and when I go back these are on the top of my list.
My favorite are :
Favorite Fabrics - Orchard Park NY ( an online , but they let you come in and shop) ... awesome selection great prices, staff is very frendly . Do check the hours prior as an on -line does not have same as a regular retail store.
The Quilt Farm - Not too far from Fav Fabrics - Really diverse selction , great location in the farm country , really in a converted barn .. its full of fabric. You will think you are lost when you go to this one.
Homespun Boutique - Ithaca- nice selection of quilt fabrics, garment fabrics , and awesome yarn.
Quilters Corners - Ithaca - On the same street as Homespun ( State street) .
