Well I am back from Florida, just in time for a winter storm. It was a blast ! I got to meet sewnsewer2 and Bearisgray ! We had so much fun :shock: And my Debit card is still cooling off :roll: Maybe I should stick it in the snow :wink: I meet up with sewnsewer2 on Monday , started with lunch then went to her LQS. They have tons of fabric and everyone was so nice . then we went to Hancocks where I got fabric for son #2 who is getting married in May. He loved the university of Tennessee. I think the fabric blinded sewnsewer2 8-) On Tuesday I meet up with Bearisgray at her LQS and did a little shopping, then we went back to her place for lunch and she showed me a beautiful quilt she was working on and she gave me some helpful tips on sewing. Wish I had taken a notebook to write down notes :oops: On my last day I went to another quilt store in Dunedin that soneone on the board suggested I go to ( 18,000 bolts of fabric ) Rainbow Quilts I think it was . I ended up stopping by 5 shops in various parts of Florida.

Looks like you had a great time and you did good on the shopping, that fabric with the purple and blue flowers is breath-taking

The Dunedin quilt shop, Rainbow's End Quilt Shoppe is my favorite. I don't live very far from it and can't resist going every time I'm in town. Glad you enjoyed your trip. I'm originally from IN., Marion.
