    What is really sad is, If more people supported our LQS maybe they would not close. I try to get 90% of my quilting supplies there. They just can't compete with the Hancock's and JoAnn's. So, let's all support our LQS's and enjoy the convience they offer.

    Sorry to hear that. It is sooo expensive any more to have a brick and mortar store.

    That is so sad. What a good idea--forming a guild is such a good idea. Another place that you could meet is a local church. One of the sales girls and a teacher at our LQS quit awhile ago, and I felt lost for awhile. I really missed her! Crazy isn't it?
