Erin Petry, Larry Hodges, and Kelly Hodges pose for a photo among the fabric displays.

A remodeled horse barn does not seem a likely place for a quilt shop, but when Kelly Hodges was faced with an empty barn, inspiration struck. The barn had been used to house her daughter’s horses on the family’s property, which is located on Foster Road in Hurricane. When her daughter graduated from high school and moved away, Kelly was left with a large, relatively new structure which had outlived its usefulness.
