    They used to have a remnet table but I hsaven't been there in over 8 years. I wasn't quilting then I was making cotton hankies and I found a good selection in the Va store.

    Went to Mary Jo's this week for the first time and OMG. I was so stunned I could hardly look at fabric. I've never in my life seen so much in one location. It was overwhelming. Can't wait to go back.

    there is a quilt shop in Alexandria near the Wilson Bridge going toward Beacon Hill, they used to be on King Street and i am sure they moved for more space. I haven't been to it since they moved. but they also had classes on King street. and such a beautiful selection. of quilting fabric.

    Boy I agree with that. We have NOTHING in Connecticut except Joann's since The Fabric Place went out of business. You can order on line but there's nothing like touching and feeling materials and comparing....
    What about Quilter's Corner in New Milford?

    Nope! You take it to the counter and they cut and put it on your slip.

    Katt with a fabric addiction and I don't want the cure....
