Why a Blog?

Why a blog is the question, the answer is so that we folks here at Country Expressions Quilt Shoppe can get ideas, inspiration and scoops as they arise.  By scoops I mean what is happening in your "quilters world", what are some of the hot fabrics that you have seen, what you as the customer would like to see in our shoppe.  Fun productive stuff that we can all share .  

So, first topic....I heard that one of the Granddaughters of the Walmart fortune is going to open a fabric "chain".  The new "WoAnns?  Is this competition for privately owned really nice, beautiful quality fabric Quilt Shoppes?
