We stopped at the Heritage Quilt Shop. Marvelous fabrics there. Very nice people. Love that shop! Then two weeks later his aunt passed away and we went to the funeral and before we left we stopped at the quilt shop again and I loaded up! I truly love Iowa. I love the Amana Colonies (you have to look past the tourist-y stuff and recall the way it used to be. My husband's father was born in Middle Amana and I got to see it for the first time in 1969 and loved it ever since. Still have relatives there.
My aim in my life is to do a Mariner's Compass! Edie[/quote]
I live just a half hour or so from the Amanas - I usually get to Heritage twice a year...I agree, wonderful shop - her batiks are just awesome :roll: I'll be heading down there again for a shop hop coming up in a few weeks....cha-ching!
