Love-love-love Lori`s Pins`n Needles quilt shop.I live 2&1/2 hours away from the shop.I try to visit Lori`s about 2 to 3 times a year. What a wonderful shop.Lori always has the latest trends in fabric and patterns and a great variety of other quilting needs.Wow all the wonderful samples all around as soon as you walk in the door.Sooo much inspiration, you just want to make one of everything. Lori is always so friendly and helpful. If there is something you want and they don`t have it Lori will get right on it and check if she can order it ,and then mail it to you if you can`t come in to pick it up. I've been wanting to get a Baby Lock SEWING machine but can`t afford to buy a new one and Lori showed me a reconditioned one-what a great idea and I found one that was in my price range.Lori showed me how to use it and noticed the automatic threader was not working correctly so she made sure to get it fixed and said that I could pick it up in a few days. That was great because it gave me another chance to do more shopping.You quilters know what I mean-a chance to buy more and mooore fabric to add to our collection (stash) we can never have enough fabric, if you like it buy a yard if you really really like it and can`t live without it buy 2 yards or more because if you don't you will have constant regrets,you know the feeling because when you finally go back to buy it there is only a remnant left. So when the machine was ready to pick up I had a very nice 2&1/2 hour drive enjoying the beautiful countryside. When I got to Lori`s she wasn`t in so one of her wonderful very nice and friendly helpers showed me again how to operate my machine and also helped me with my fabric purchase yea mooore beautiful fabric and she even carried the SEWING machine to the car and put it in my trunk. Yes I love my baby lock even if it is not new and it works great even the automatic threader .THANK YOU LORI and thanks to all your wonderful helpers who are always ready to help and make me feel welcome whenever I come into your great quilt shop.Keep up the great work. I`m looking forward to my next visit which I hope will be soon. Dianna Q. read more
