I just noticed that you're from Newfoundland, as am I. Where do you buy your fabric? I know you got this while in Alaska, but here in NL, where do you go for fabric?

What part of Newfoundland are you in?
I live on the Bonavista Peninsula. My favorite store is C&M in Carmanville! Lovely lady runs it and has SO much fabric. I shop at Fabricville in St. J's and Mercer's in Clarenville and Wave in Harcourt. Those are my main stores when I can't get into St. J's.

Gosh,didn't know there were so many fabric places on the island. I'm on the east coast and shop in St. J's. My favorite place is Fashionable Fabrics in Mount Pearl area. Going across the island this summer, so I'm making it my business to visit the stores you mentioned. Can't wait, although I bet hubby can!!! Actually,he's really very patient with my fabric shopping as I am patient with his fishing-stuff shopping. Thanks for the info on the stores.

My sister does a lot more shopping in Central than I do. I know she has talked about a store in Springdale and there is one in Grand Falls. Her husband is a recreational salmon fisherman and they spend the entire summer in Central.

I started it Wednesday after he went to work and finished it Friday while he was working. The quilting and binding was more difficult as he was home on the weekend and I had to do it then. Luckily for me he's afraid of my sewing room! LOL

Wow how pretty! Love the colors. Did you hand applique the eagle?

How is the eagle done? If Dh sees this he will want one I'm sure although he is more of a wolf man. Beautiful job and happy b-daym Paul.
