    I said 5 or 6 years ago when fabric started going up and up that they were going to price themselves out of a hobby, and they have.... ! It is unreal how much money you put in making a quilt.

    If you are ever within 50-60 miles of Franklin NC, the have two wonderful stores, A Stitch in Time and the other store has a new name, I think it is Sew Sassy(used to be Deb's Cats and Quilts). Plus there is a sewing craft store that has some fabrics called Sew Creative. The quilt stores are worth taking a slight detour.❣

    I love to go to fabric stores when I'm on vacation - fabric is my #1 favorite souvenir. I used to buy my fabric almost exclusively online, but lately all the online store prices are going up so much that the brick & mortar stores are looking a lot more competitive. I've been going to the local stores more often, which is probably a good thing. Although I must say, I still love shopping in my PJ's at 3 AM when I can't sleep! My insomnia puts a lot of money into other people's pockets, LOL.
