Pigeon Forge TN shops?
Hubby and I will be spending a week near Pigeon Forge TN, and I'm wondering if there are any must-see fabric shops in the area. Not that I need more fabric, but he's a good sport about shopping for fabric and yarn, and I enjoy buying fabric as a souvenir.
Thank you! Drea C. |
Looks like there may be one or two in the vicinity. One says it is a Factory store. Have fun.

If you're going to Pigeon Forge, I would make the trek out to Maryville to visit Pappy's Quilting Place - it is on Old Sevierville Rd. There is also Machine Quilting by Iva - don't let the name fool you, they have a TON of fabric. It is on Old Knoxville Highway. They Cherry Pit is in downtown Sevierville and is wonderful. Holloway's Country House in Cosby is not too far either. But my absolute favorite is Mountain Stitches by Susan in the arts & crafts area of Gatlinburg. The owner and her husband are super sweet.

The cherry pit is very nice. Look on rowbyrowexperience.com for the stores in the area. Knoxville is about an hour away. With as hot it is now in TN (heat index of 100) you may just want to go to Dollywood's Splash Country to cool off.

PS - Lil Dolly's is basically a souvenir shop - with factory made quilts, not a quilt shop.

We are leaving hot DE to go to Pigeon Forge Aug. 16. We will go to Dolly Stampede for dinner one night. It's been a few years since I have been there but I remember the one on Glades Rd. had really nice patterns. I am melting here but I know Tenn can be hot too. I guess I will cool off in the creek there.

Thank you for all the input, everyone! Yes, it's going to be hot, but it's always nice to get away and see a new place. We'll just stay hydrated and think about snow.

Enjoy your trip! |
I too, agree with Julie R. Was in the area a couple of years ago and because it was close to closing time I called Machine Quilting by Iva and she stayed late for me! Lots to see. I also stopped in Knoxville at Gina's Bernina. Very friendly staff.
