Fabric
Acquisition
Road
Trip

The week before National Quilting Day = Road Trip!!!

A road trip north to the Amish area of Ohio...

a great day of friendship and, yes, acquisition.
This was one of my constant companions for the day:

as I am still living with the end of the "crud"

aka sinus infection among other things.

Now, on to the acquisition part:
I found some great patriotics to add to my stash...

(OK, some are not patriotics - but great stash to have on hand!)

 Also found some great fall colors

for my upcoming block of the month...

 And, found some great border fabric -

maybe a "pic-i-nic" quilt in my future,

as Yogi would say?

Sometimes on these trips,

you even get to acquire fabric for others!!!

This is a line that a friend, Caroline, was looking for -

so called her and added to her stash!!!:

Isn't it cute? She is planning a bag for a knitting friend.

(And, truth be told, I bought just a little myself to make a bag for a s-i-l gift!)

And, lastly, just a little sustenance

for the long drive home!
