I am heading to Georgia this week for vacation and wanted to know of a good quilt/fabric store in Macon/Forsyth area. I will be there for 2 weeks, and would like to start working on a new project while I am there...might keep me from eating 'til I pop (doubtful) since I would feel terrible if I got fried chicken on my fabric .

If you can get up to Atlanta there are some really nice ones on the west side.

LOL, don't you mean BBQ chicken???

You could stop on the way down (if you are coming down I81 and go to Tennessee Quilts in Jonesborough, TN or Somewhere Sewing in Johnson City. Both are great stores/

Have fun in Georgia. Eat all you want. It's not like you eat it all the time.
