Love your quilt. I'm also doing this with participating shops in Texas. I have my rows finished and am waiting on two license plates to be sent to me. One shop owner told me the biggest mistake she's made was not getting the license plates. This was so much fun. I got to go on a mystery bus trip with my sister which was a blast and the shop owners were super nice to all of us. Some are memories of family vacation. All are memories and yes some are results of my sweet husband and son waiting in a hot pickup truck (well they kept the air conditioner on) while I shopped. I would think this has been good for shop owners because I not only got supplies for their row, but always found much more to buy. Thanks for showing yours.
