Shady Lane Selections
Dover, Delaware
An Amish-country variety store in Dover known for handcrafted quilts and name-brand quilting cottons alongside general goods.
Shady Lane Selections is an Amish-country variety store outside Dover, and it's worth knowing about even though it's not a dedicated quilt shop in the usual sense — the store displays handcrafted quilts alongside its shelves of name-brand quilting cottons and general goods.
It's cash-only, which is the kind of detail that tells you a lot about the pace and character of the place before you've even walked in. If you're driving through Delaware's Amish countryside, this is the sort of stop where you might go in for fabric and leave having also looked over a handmade quilt or two on display, priced and ready to take home.
It's a smaller, more general kind of shop than most, but for anyone who enjoys browsing a genuine country variety store as much as a dedicated fabric shop, it's worth the detour and the cash in your pocket to make it worth the trip.
