We will be heading to Ct. in June for a very large wedding. Is anone from there that could direct me to some quilt shops and/or discount fabric places. Will be in the New Haven area and Cheshire, Ct.

New Haven has a cute shop. There are some other nice ones I can't remember the name of. Also, check the Quilter's Travel Companion. I will PM you if I remember the names of the ones we like best around there.

There are three shops called "Close to Home" I have only been to the one in Glastonbury, CT which is about 45 minutes from New Haven, but there is one in Orange CT, which is 17 minutes from New Haven. If the store in Orange is anything like the one in Glastonbury, you should be very happy browsing there. They used to have a store on Long Island, NY where I live and I really liked that store. Then they decided to stay exclusively in CT. sigh!
