Mine tolerates me going into one store, but paces up and down to the point I feel bad. <br />Your tastes do change over time, so don't feel bad about going off a store. I know my fabric choices today are very different from those I made a few years back, and every store has its own "feel". <br />I also totally agree with you. Every time I try to shop online I fail. I can't see the colours properly, and like you, I love to feel things. I just can't get inspired. I also love the smell of a fabric shop. It must be a faint odour from the dyes or chemicals used in the preparation process, but I love it.Dashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17415154217182640049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-4216241232254706602014-09-05T15:30:45.389-07:002014-09-05T15:30:45.389-07:00Some lovely purchases there - and thanks for the t...Some lovely purchases there - and thanks for the tour!

How frustrating to find that all but one, in Marysville, was closed :(. The one I did find open was to northern in style for this southern girl. I am more into bright and colorful fabrics. I did stumble upon one on the way north to Amish country where I found a stencil that worked great on a baby quilt I was working on. Fabric to dark and drab for my taste though. So happy you shared your hop with us. As Ellen said, I feel the need to go buy fabric. :) DebbieDaytona Damselhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00973995351685168211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5297789041481934828.post-57023858802742117032014-09-05T07:50:18.652-07:002014-09-05T07:50:18.652-07:00Thanks so much for taking time to visit us at Prai...Thanks so much for taking time to visit us at Prairie Point Junction in Cozad, Nebraska.

I live about 50 miles from Prairie Point Junction and call it the happy quilt shop. The store is inviting with wonderful samples, fabrics and great lighting.
