I would be too, but a new little quilt / fabric store just opened 11 miles from my house. I haven't been yet but today I'm off to explore. It is no Marshall's but it is my first and only non Wally world choice w/i 50 miles so that is taking the sting out a little bit! lol

Kass that would be horrible to be so far from a fabric store. Joann Fabrics is 10 minutes from me, a quilt shop is 20 minutes away and there are 3 on the way to and from my sister's.

Well I went to the little shop and the owners were extremely friendly, the prices were very reasonable. They just opened 2 weeks ago so they don't have a huge selection (but already bigger then my selection at Wally world) but if / when they fill all the shelves they have ready the selection will be great! Even better news is they are putting in a long arm machine, the owner does quilting, I saw some of her work and it is very nice so when my La Pass is ready for the quilting I am set!!!!! I got a couple of pieces for fussy cutting in my La Pass today.

And here is a pic of the foundling chicks we rescued a few days ago they are thriving.

I'm at the little barbecue place up the road, taking a lunch break from all the grueling shopping! Hah. I'll take some pics for y'all when I get back to Marshalls.

Kass the chicks are so cute! I want to cuddle their warm fuzzy little bodies!

Kassaundra loving all the chic pics, the rescue ones are adorable
Good luck to the new quilt shop, so many seem to be closing these days
We had a new one open a couple of months ago, same as your new one, small and she does quilting. Already have had her do one for me.

I couldn't figure out how to upload photos from my phone so I had to wait to get back to my daughter's and my laptop.

Guess what I spotted in the window of a downtown hardware store in Batesville, just around the corner from Marshall's? CHICKS!

And here are a couple of shots from the retail part of Marshall's:

$2.99 flat folds, tons of them!

More flat folds, with the bolts behind them. Sorry it's sideways...

Outside of the store... pretty unassuming looking building but full of lots of goodies inside!

No idea why my photos went sideways... they are right side up on my computer!
