That was absolutely one of the best events this town has ever entertained. The amount of people and the quality of the fun during the Blobfest was incredible and I am glad I was there to witness it. If you could not or did not make it this year then make it point to be a part of it next year and bring friends and make a party of it. This is a great event held in our own great town. Great job Phoenixville!

"The things that sold in Paoli didn't sell in Phoenixville," she said, adding that some customers thought that the store was too expensive or the sizing did not go high enough (size 12 being the highest size sold). "We tried everything." Randels also said that parking was an issue for many of her customers who could either not find spaces or did not feel safe parking behind the store. --- Polka Dots remains open until the 16th, with hours on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. The phone number is 610-935-5914.
