Coming further east - but not far is Dandridge. We have a LAQ there who also sells fabrics - threads, etc. in her store. A very small shop and fairly reasonably prices. Now, we have a new store in Morristown - large store, but again reasonable prices. The store in Dandridge is Calico Cottage and in Morristown - MMIJA (mee-ja). Don't know what part of K'town you're going to be in, but Morristown is about 45 min to an hour and Dandridge is a bit closer.
