I don't have any trips planned to the US in 2011, though my dh will go to the states in Sept. :) (Missions conf.)

I will go with the kids, though, possibly to Egypt here in Jan. We have to leave the country due to a problem with my temp. residency card and I have to leave before Jan. 26. You know what they sell in Egypt, right? Egyptian cotton!!!!!

(Believe it or not, you can get a charter flight to Egypt, plus hotel and food for about $350 per person for one week from Warsaw.)

Fun.

I'll take an extra bag if I go there...There is a huge bazaar in Cairo...

Hey...quilters look EVERYWHERE....

I guess we are really lucky in the U.S. to have such a great selection of quilting fabrics! Thanks for sharing.

I'm happy to have a computer to order special fabric from if I can't find in store ! Can you do this as well ? Or is it absurdly expensive to do that ?

MODA = "trendy" , "fashion" in Spanish.
A perfect name for a fabric store.
I think they know the meaning of the word.

This is such an interesting post. Thanks for all the info and pictures. You sound very resourceful. I was wondering how you got interested in quilting since it isn't popular there??
My husband's grandparents came from Poland :)
