As a "slight" beginner in quilting, I tend to do a google image search for a specific idea in quilting. Example: victorian quilt. Note* I am gravitating toward Bing's image search now. I just get ideas from the pictures and then make it my own. But, I have found that a quilt Always takes it's own direction if you let it. :D

Visited Southwest Decoratives Quilt Shop this morning. Oh my goodness, what an incredible shop. I bought balloon fabric to make a tote bag, FOUR kits, and some tools. They were very glad I came in. I told them you sent me. I also got on their mailing list. I loved the shop ... I was glad to hear that I can shop via Web. Thanks for the recommendation.
