Quilters Travel Companion


Summer travel is in full swing. Wherever your travels take you, include a visit to the local quilt shop. No matter how many shops you visit, each one is unique and reflects the special personalities of the quilt artists who work there. However, one thing they all have in common is friendliness.

I never leave home without consulting my trusty Quilters Travel Companion. This book lists all quilt shops by state. It includes directional maps, hours of operation and a description of the shop. It is currently in its 8th edition and is updated periodically.

You can find this book in your local quilt shop or on www.amazon.com. The web site of the publisher is www.chalet-publishing.com.
