We just returned from a very nice road trip through western Montana and northern Idaho. I stopped at 3 different quilt shops and bought a pattern and all the fabrics for this nice little quilt. I finished the top this afternoon and as you can see I haven't even clipped the threads yet.

Love the quilt! Just curious as to which quilt shops you stopped at? Hopefully my suggestions helped!

I loved your suggestions. We were in Livingston, but I was too late for that shop. I really liked the shop in Seeley Lake. It was a real treat. I did go to the one in Deer Lodge in the bank. That was a lot of fun and they were very nice in there. I also found a tiny little place in Bonners Ferry Idaho. Found some 50% off stuff there. Thank you for your help. It was fun.

The shop in Deer Lodge is my favorite, with Thimbelina's in Livingston a close second! Glad you fun!!!

Beautiful and such a nice ideal! Montana is on my list of "places to visit". Hope I make it to the Big Sky Country.

That is so pretty. I love the fabrics too.

Oh, such a nice combo of colors that say falling leaves to me. Love the different inner border, so simple but so effective.
