on this fine, mild, sunny 62-degree day, a friend took me to a very nice quilty gathering place....
the very famous (in these parts) web fabrics....a wonderful shop that carries nearly everything quilt related. fabric, notions, patterns, every tool imaginable, some gift items and those to-lust-after dutch chintz prints. knowing my philosophy of shopping my stash first, you might think i was running low on fabric, but rest easy readers, only 1.75 yards came home with me--hardly noticeable in most any quilter's stash.
a few text prints to add to what's on hand, a couple of kaffe prints i had not seen before in colors a bit unusual for him and 2 of those luscious dutch chintz prints. certainly well worth the half hour trip through rolling countryside and places new to me. *** my friend lives in a very picturesque farm house, updated but with some original features left intact, with a view that extends over the entire valley. there's a spring house, a smokehouse, a small chicken house and some other outbuildings along with fenced-in pastures and an updated garage. it is so idyllic, i thought i was actually on walton's mountain! the day was perfect, topped off with a dozen farm-fresh eggs to bring home. i couldn't be more blessed that she is my friend....
