Actually we were looking for a couple of things in particular and one of them we never could find :cry:
We wanted the One Block Wonder book and we found that, I found some GREAT fabric for the OBW so that was exciting! I found some really pretty Batiks for the Batik swap. I got some little plastic templates for hex that I'm excited about...they make it like 100 times easier! I also found some wonderful fabric for a quilt for my son who is a music major....it had musical notes, brass instruments, etc.....I am REALLY excited about that. The one thing I could not find anywhere was the 9 or 10 degree wedge ruler :( I guess I will just order it online. It really was a GREAT time!! :-D

LOL...Honestly I don't think we have that many quilt shops in my area but I am going to see. I think when she comes here I will try to schedule it with a class at my LQS or something llike that. They are SO GREAT there and I love the classes.

What fun! Eleven shops, you are so lucky to have that many shops to hop.

QBee, where do you live in Kentucky, my friend and I meet in August every year in Morgantown (near Bowling Green/Elizabethtown but have had a hard time finding shops to hop. There is a jewel we found near E+town. We did find another nice shop in Goodlettsville, TN, so except for Paducah we come up pretty dry. So I was wondering if there were quilt shops in your area.
