DH and I will be vacationing in Northern Georgia in October.  Does
anyone know of interesting quilting/craft stores in the Helen area?  DH
mentioned reading of a craft store in Unicoi State Park.  Is it worth
seeing?

There's a craft store at Anna Ruby Falls; is that the one you mean?  It's
nice, but...how to phrase...targeted at people who don't know much about
mountain crafts.  I've found some gems there, but there is a lot of junk,
too.  (Much like Helen, actually.  Gorgeous area, less than impressive
shopping.)  It's no Berea, Kentucky...that's for sure!  (Of course, no
place is Berea except Berea.)

The nearest quilt shop that I know of is in Gainesville, which would be
an hour or so drive.  Quilted Hearts is a great shop, with a good
selection of fabric and notions.  The women who run it are really nice.
