it's absolutely mandatory when visiting Penn Dutch country. you know how gaga i am for solids, so i took advantage of the humongous choice and picked some up to finish my ocean waves project. bottom left is a piece of indigo paisley....on sale too! and the bottom right shows 2 christmas prints at a whopping 35% off. christmas lights and those adorable angels could not be resisted. we hit sauder's and burkholder's in one day. and oh, the batiks at burkholder's--the choices were endless. after careful perusing, i did manage to find a few i couldn't leave behind that i'll save for another post!
I love the shades of solids you have chosen. I have never really worked with solids all together. I love what you do with them--I just get giddy over prints (like the ones you selected) and don't stop to consider what I might do with solids. Can't wait to see the batiks!
ReplyDeleteLast time we were in that area I went to a wonderful shop in Bird in Hand, PA ..can't remember the name but it was a nice shop with plenty of fabric all under what was the norm at that time. I still have one bundle of fabric from there that I have no idea why I am saving it...
ReplyDeleteHope your retreat is all you dreamed...sounds like you are unwinding nicely.
