Went to a local quilt show and found some great fabric. It was very inspirational to see all the quilts people in the different quilds had made. Went to a local quilt shop afterwards to get some pastels and got 20% with my wrist band from the show!!

We went too! Didn't know about the 20% discount, probably a good thing! Where are you in VA? We are in REston/Herndon

Gstreet will give 20% if you show you arm band. The girl cutting my fabric mentioned it to me, had to ask for it out check out though, but they gave it to me. I live outside of Middleburg.

I ususally don't buy the backing until I finish the quilt but this was such a good buy, had to have it. The top is still just blocks, 100 of them!! have to lay it out in a design now and start sewing.
