Just wanted to post a follow up...and a quick thank you for the recommendations.
I visited both Sew Yeah and Quiltique. If you tend to lean more towards modern quilting I highly recommend them. I LOVED both of them and spent a good chunk of money.Sew Yeah was bigger than Quiltique with a very good batik selection. They both had good sized sale rooms. Quiltique's sale room specifically had some amazing fabric - Cotton & Steel, Alison Glass, Tula Pink, etc.
I did not visit Christmas Goose whereas I had limited time and I heard it was more of a traditional/country quilt shop and that's not my style.
