    Are you seeing quilt shops closing in your areas?

    Unfortunately, yes. A lovely store that has been in business for 10 years is closing in western CT. I have only been there a few times because for me, it's difficult to get to. I feel sorry for the store owner. :cry: :cry: :cry:

    Not yet, my LQS is wonderful, I've decided to buy there rather than online when I need something. Save the shipping and hopefully the LQS too.

    No. I buy everything from the LQS, except for the things she does not carry.

    We're losing one in Titusville but have a new one in New Smyrna Beach which is much closer for me.

    Not so far. We only have one small LQS and I feel very fortunate that we have the one. She always has just what I need........and a little bit more.

    Not in Battle Creek Michigan, Marshall Michigan or Ceresco Michigan. I think the ones in Kalamazoo Mi are also still open.
