    Default Going on a road trip--quilt shop suggestions please!

    I'm taking my son to college next month and would love suggestions for any great quilt shops to visit along the way. The area I'm interested in is anything along the I-5 corridor from the OR/CA border to Mt. Vernon, WA (~1 hr. north of Seattle). I'm familiar with the area, but not the quilt shops! Thanks!

    If you can take a short side trip...maybe on your way back, try Homespun Threads in Astoria, Oregon. The owner is delightful and the quality and selection are great. Plus, Astoria is a cute town at the mouth of the Columbia River. I have attached a list in the general Everett area, most of which are right off I-5. I grew up in the area and have visited a couple of these.
