At one time, we had quite a few very nice LQS withing a short distance. Leah's was sold several years ago when Leah became too ill to continue running the stores. The lady who bought it changed the name to A Time to Sew and moved the location. Within 2 years it closed (beginning of this year). Material Possessions went into Chapter 11 and was bought from the courts. The name changed to Sacred Moondance-- service not so great. They sent an e-mail right after the first of the year that they are looking for a buyer as the owner wants to move to Northern CA. If no buyer is found the store will close in October when the lease expires. Yesterday I got an e-mail that closing of inventory begins today and the store officially closes on May 28. Tall Mouse moved to north county in fall. Now we have one quilt store that does not specialize in quilts, one sewing machine store that has a small fabric collection and TSWLTH. Genny's is about 25 minutes north, as are other quilt shops, but nothing close buy anymore.
