Len's Mills is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO seductive. I can't decide whether I spend more at the Guelph or the Cambridge location.
Pickles and Quilts. Both are yummy. That is so domestic! Have fun.

I'm heading to Indiana in October . It's in Shipshewana....Amish country. There will be some very fun fabric stores. My husband already knows we will be visiting them and I think he knows that I won't leave with only one fabric! Glad you could hold yourself back. . I completely understand the addiction.

wow .....I never knew thy existed.... yes I was serious....will be adding this to my to do list...thanks!!!!
Umm... Huntannette..not sure if you just kidding, but Lens Mill has at least6 outlets. Just google and pick the nearest one and also check their current flyer for sales. Love the fact that they buy and display quilts in all their stores. Lots of dreck to go thru sometimes but also lots of variety. Just wish the prices were closer to the US equivalent.

QuiltE yes, I am also disappointed in the new Fabricland in Orangeville. But according to one of the employees, they haven't had any new shipments in a couple of months. I have a funny feeling that they will be getting more curtain and upholstery type fabric to fill the space.
Did you get to the new little fabric place in the Shoppers plaza at Broadway and C Line? It is called Sew-Jax and has only been there about 2 months. They will be offering classes too.
Huntannette, if you are heading to Toronto, the newest Lens Mill is on Orfus Rd. near Yorkdale.

MaryK ..... It's worth the drive to Hamilton ... and Woodstock! Just Sayin'!!!
HuntAnnette .... oh my dear, you have been so deprived! lots of seasonals all year round, too! Just bring along your yardages for anything and everything you might ever think you might ever need for those long winter days and nights up yonder!!!!!!!!!!
GingerK ... hhmm? starting to think your hour drive to St.J is more from the Greater Oville area? That makes you a somewhat neighbour then. That FL is a franchise store, so guess they do more of their own thing, than the corporates. Good sale right now on some of the upholstery at buy 1 get 3 more free til 8/20. So I complied and got some of the microtex for a purse/beg. Should be good a durable. Stencils if you want them are 60% off. Cottons were 40% off but they thought that might end any day. And silly me, I did not buy any widebacks ($17 less 40%). Whyyyyyyyyyy didn't I have some sense in me? Yes have been to Sew-Jax ... did you know that it is the split up of Shelburne's Cobwebs and Caviar? The other partner kept C+C, moved down the street, and still has fabric. Same stuff was cheaper there, than at the one 2 doors west that moved there from Oville.
