I thought I was the only one who notice that their help sucked. I will not shop there anymore'

I live about 10 miles from Rainbow's end and have the same attitude. I love Country Quilts and Bears in Clearwater and Happy Apple Quilts in Oldsmar. These may be smaller, but much more friendly.

Hi Andrea, I was counting Once Upon A Quilt on Griffin Road and Sunshine Sewing. I would go broke if I worked across the street from Sunshine. I've never been to Cynthia's but I've heard of it.

Hi Diane, I live in Margate, 15 min west of Ft Lauderdale, I work across the street from Sunshine Fabrics. What is the second quilt shop? Country Stitches closed I believe! We have Cynthia's Fine fabrics in the area.

That's great, 'April', (I hope you don't mind me shortening your name? A lot of people just call me 'Phil' - especially in chatroom). What part of Brooksville do you live in?

I'm another Space Coaster...Palm Bay. The Quilt Place and Marilou's Quilt Shops are great! I'm a beginner, but my stash is hefty already. Since we are a retirement state, we have a lot of quilters.
