Along the Interstate, part II

I stopped back by the Carolina Fabric Outlet on my way back from Sylva and asked if I could take photos of their wonderful shop for my blog. A very tiny sweet lady told me I might not want to because the property had been sold to a developer and they might not be there much longer. She said she didn’t know if the owner would relocate or just give up the shop. I was very disappointed, so I bought up several goodies; leather scraps and satin cording, pearl embellished lace and some discounted velvet while I was there.

I at least took a photo of the outside. If you’re traveling I-40 near Asheville, NC, stop at exit 59 in Swannanoa, and take advantage of this wonderful shop before it’s gone.

Along the Interstate

I was travelling along I-40 on my way to Sylva, NC on Tuesday. Just past Black Mountain, I spotted a sign, “Carolina Fabric Outlet.” I kept an eye out and found it! Just off exit 59 in Swannanoa, this fabric outlet has a fantastic selection. It’s big, but not overwhelming like Mary Jo’s in Gastonia. And if you need upholstery and decorating fabric, I saw some of the same selections I had seen in The ABC Home Store in Manhattan! I wish I’d taken pictures. I’ll try to stop on my way home and snap a few.
