    Not sure if the Illinois Quilters are aware of this "shop" they are primarily traveling shop that goes to quilt shows and sells fabric . I have seen them many times at the International Quilt show in Chicago and have purchased from them many times. They always have a booth filled with 1/2 yard cuts for $2.75, good selection good quality. I just saw some of the same fabric at a local store for $9.50 per yard.
    Any how they have a warehouse and hold open houses a few times per year. The next one is Spetember 4, and 5th. The hours will be 9-5.
    They are located in Bloomington IL 416 Olympia drive Behind the Palace theaters. Phone - 1-888-3819.
    They do have a small on line business , mostly bundles.
    Maybe I'll being "seeing" you there!!

    Had no idea they were there. I'm not that far away. Think I'll be planning a trip.

    Bought fabric from these folks in Pigeon Forge, TN, in March 2010. They're really nice folks.
