    I'm really glad your family let you look, you are very lucky...
    The 100% cotton fabrics were between $4 - $6/yd., the batiks were $5.49/yard, flannels were about the same as the cotton and the fleece was $6.49/yard. The fat quarters were $.99 each. It was inexpensive, I got 4 1/2 yards of fabric for 22.97. I was pleased because I could have probably spent a WHOLE lot more!!! Let me know if you go and how you make out!!

    We ate at the Farmstead it was very good food and lots of it!! Their homemade peanut butter was delicious. It tasted like it had a marshmallow creme mixed in - Yummy! Yes the people were very nice and I'll definitely be back!!!

    Michelehuston,

    Do you know they are going to have an auction for the property at Helping Hands - not sure if they are relocating or what, but if you find out anything let me know!!!

    Oh,love,love,love Millers Dry Goods! My husband and I took a weekender trip to the area last fall and I visited Millers for the first time. Definitely not the last time, though. But I didn't make it to Zinicks. It's only about 60 miles from my house so I see regular day trips in my future.

    over near Bowling Green Ohio there is a quilt store so packed with bolts of fabric you can barely squeeze thru the aisle we try to go once a year must have 15,000 bolts in a converted barn every type of fabric for quilting you could dream of you would find there its called the Door Mouse its scary because the fabric is stacked to the ceiling on shelves but oh so nice

    I used to live in Loudonville and worked in Holmesville, Ohio.
    I LOVE it up there and really miss it. Hope to get up that way this summer if our health holds up.
