Traveling to Dallas Tx next week
I will be spending some time in Dallas and have most evenings booked with Wicked, Big Daddy Voodoo Band and a retirement party! Our days are pretty open and we have a car. Can you guess what my next question will be? Does anyone know of a quilt shop that shouldn't be missed? I've heard of an art district that we will try to find. Also if there are some restaurant/cafes/eateries you recommend, I'd love to get their names! Thanks for any help!

You might want to check out Golden d'Or on Harry Hines in Dallas. It is a treasure trove of all sorts of fabrics from drapery and upholstery fabric to satins and laces for prom dresses to quilting cotton to you name it. Pricing ranges from $1/yd on up to way out there on some of the specialty fabric. And they have a back room with heavily discounted fabric of all sorts. Plus a section of flat fold fabric that may be remnants or seconds. Do be conscious of what quality you are looking for as they have the whole gamut. Never know what you will find there. Have fun!!!

If you love batiks you definitely need to go to Fabric Fanatics in Plano, it's only about a 15 minute drive from Dallas. www.fabricfanatics.com
