Woolen willow is a cute store. Very friendly people. Funny story, we were traveling from Virginia to northern Ohio, where we live. My husband said he was tired and needed to stop and rest. So we pull into the welcome center, hubby goes to the back of the motor home to sleep. What do I see? A sign saying woolen willow quilt shop! I call to ask where they were and the lady said about a quarter mile from the hightway....walking distance!!! You see, hubby is a drag racer, I walk miles every weekend at the track, this will be easy. Grand daughter and I hike up the road, what an adventure...until we find out it is one and and half miles! I made sure I looked at everything, because I was not going to walk one and a half miles back to the motor home and think to myself " gosh, I should have checked to see if they have_____". I looked, I bought and we walked. I did tell the lady that the next time she gave directions that I might suggest (in a very sweet, humorus voice) that she know how far she is actually located. She laughed and was very apologetic. She did not realize we walked there. Hubby said he would have driven us there after his nap, but the area around the shop was so small there was no place to turn our motor home around...we are 70 feet long with both it and the trailer! Quilting adventures... Love them.
