Penney’s Quilt Shop was originally the J.M. Hale and Brother Dry Goods Company, where a young man name James Cash Penney first started his career. When Mr. Hale retired in 1923, he sold his store to J.C. Penney who had worked there as a boy and had since become very successful. As a tribute to his hometown, Penney opened his 500th store in this very location. We’ve retained the name of this historic shop and now you can browse solids and basics as far as the eye can see at Penney’s.
