We still have a Ben franklin in Macon Mo (about 30 min. from here) I just bought over a hundred dollars worth of Designer fabric at 50% off a month or so ago!! It was awesome!

Winterset, Iowa store is still open. They have a large fabric dept. The store is owned by an elderly couple and I LOVE going in there. Fons and Porter are on the other end of the same block. Karen Sue from Iowa

Richmond, VA has Ben Franklin at the Willow Lawn mall. Their store was behind the main mall, and a little while ago, they moved it to a better location up front. My LQS is right next door, then the liquor store..., and Krogers is a couple of store fronts down. All very convenient... :wink:

There is one in Bonney Lake, WA that was open a few months ago. I rarely make it out that way but when I do, I always stop.

So, have I! Our church quilting/sewing team makes the trip 1-2 times a year there. It is about a 2 hour drive but we make a day of it and enjoy each other's company.
