For my 50th birthday, my husband arranged for me and my sister to go to the Missouri Star Quilt Company. Let me say - IT WAS FABULOUS!!!!! We arrived at 9:45 and left at 4:49. My feet were killing me by the time we were done. Here are some of the highlights:
STAFF EVERYWHERE - There are plenty of employees to help you with anything you need.
SUPER HELPFUL - We didn't find an employee who couldn't answer one of our questions.
AMAZING STORE DESIGN- Each store you walk into has an individual personality. I don't know who they have working behind the scenes, but they do a fantastic job. From the refinished floors to the unique light fixtures, every store tells a different story.
FABRIC - Great selection. AND if they are short on what you need, they can call the warehouse. If it is in stock - they will bring it to the store later in the day.
BATHROOMS - they are in each store.
JENNY - Like Waldo - we didn't see her - but we met her husband. He was out watering plants.
Now - for lowlights
Fat quarters - I love fat quarters. I make more spontaneous purchases on fat quarters. However, they do not have fat quarters precut of the fabric. They do have the fat quarter bundles, but not individual quarters of each fabric.
Quilt kits - My sister would have liked to have quilt kits available to purchase. If not kits, maybe the same quilt done it 2-3 different fabrics as examples.
We had an absolutely AMAZING time. We stayed in Excelsior Springs at the Elms Hotel. That is a wonderful hotel - very luxurious. I can't wait to plan my next trip.
