Illinois Quilt Shops, Fabric Stores and Sewing Machine Dealers

Remember to ALWAYS call ahead to make sure the shop will be open on the day you plan to visit. I have specifically omitted hours and days from the listings because they change.

Stores close, many times without notice, for holidays, bad weather or for family emergencies. And quite frankly, your quilting time is much too precious to waste.

I don't want you making any unnecessary trips.

Don't forget to ask what they specialize in, too!

It's good to go into a shop on a mission!
