Top Shelf Quilts in Frankfort is our LGS of choice. They have a good selection of batiks & offer lots of classes. You should make a road trip there. It's just off White St. going into old downtown Frankfort. Staff is very friendly & helpful. I did shop a little at Just Between Friends, but it always seemed rather clique-ish to me. I just didn't feel welcome.

I took a class at Top Shelf quite a long time ago. I just don't get over to the Frankfort area much. Guess I need to do a road trip.

Wow, what a great welcome from all over. This may be just what I need to get myself back into quilting. My Mom passed last year and she was my cheerleading section when it came to quilting and she would stitch the binding down on my quilts. I've done very little since and just can't seem to get the interest back. But with this kind of welcome here, it may be just what I need. thanks so much all of you.
