LQS closing!

I've received an email that on of my LQS, Cotton Candy Quilt Shoppe, is closing! Often I wondered how these shops were doing because there are many around here. Recently at one of my guild meetings, we had a meeting in one of the LQS (Fabric Obsession in Medina) and they mentioned that there was going to be another one opening in Stow. I can say there is probably at least 10 within an hour of me in any direction, 3 of which I travel to frequently because their selections vary. One opened in Kent about a year ago called Katie Brooke Quilt Shop. They have a good selection of 30's & 40's, Civil War, and florals. I also visit, what some people call the "Verb" store, Stitch, Piece, and Purl. The third one is the one going out of business. They had good brights. I'm sad...

I am sad, too! I thought that shop was pretty well established, maybe the move didn't treat it so well :(
