increased responsibilities associated with “The Road to California

endeavor. Therefore, Mother and I have decided to close the Fabric

Thanks you for posting this. I will be in Southern California from
July 4 through 10 and my husband knows The Fabric Patch is always on
the "must stop" list along with Material Girls. Dave's aunt lives near
The Fabric Patch so I have visited it many times over the past 25
years. I am sorry to hear that it is closing. Hope there are other
stores in the area where quilters can continue to "get their fix".

Once our exact schedule is known I was planning to post that I would
be at those two shops at specific times and hoped that someone could
meet me there. I still plan to post the times. Please contact me
privately if anyone is near either of those shops.
