    fabrics and kits from both. From booth 1006, Susan's Calico Creations (she has two quilt shops in Fulton, Illinois, Attic Woods & Susan's Calico Creations) had the Hawkeye fabrics & kits. Three pictures of pattern, fabric and finished project for memory quilts, etc., to honor my deceased father in law ashe was a avid fan.

    From booth 402 Granola Girl, I found Troy fabrics designed by Debbie Field, exactly what I was looking for to make memory quilts to honor my deceased father in law. Fabric, patterns and one finished project. Neil loved to hunt and fish.

    Susans shop is HUGE... She also does very reasonable retreats. Both shops are in one big building.Me and a group of ladies from Indiana go there 3 or 4 times a year for retreats she can take 18campers for the reatreat.

    The large leaf pattern in the Hawkeye fabric is called"Laughing leaf"...I wonder who named it that.

    Any suggestions on how to quilt the "Gone Fishing" panel??
