Well I had planned to go on this west michingan shop hop before getting the very large stash so Along with DH this is what we bought. This was my first and probably last shop hop, atleast for a long while :lol:

Wow! Those are pretty fabrics. You will be sewing for a long time, so I can understand that you won't be shopping for a long time. Have fun.

You certainly did very well!! :D I just love everything that you picked up, while on the Shop Hop!! :D I will be looking forward to seeing some of the creations that you will be making. Thank you so much for sharing with all of us!!
:D :D :D :D

oh yes I can't wait to start these new projects :oops: even though i should only be finishing old ones. I bought the batiks to do the brown and blue one on the front cover of one of the books.

Wow, love your goodies! Enjoy making things with your cool fabrics!

Wow -- beautiful stuff!! You did good! :thumbup:

Wow! What a shopping trip and DH went with you too!! Mine would go with me, but I don't think that I'd buy all I want with him around. You'll have fun making some beautiful quilts with your gorgeous fabrics, nice job!

Oh he wanted me to buy more!! but I said no, what was I thinking?? oh well after I actually Finish some things I will start to buy more. I need to build up some more confidence

You sure do have some great stuff there. I have a shop hop to go on this Friday. I don't want to buy to much.

You have some gorgeous fabric there! Fun times ahead!

Everything is fantastic!! Who made the two blues in the second picture? They are breathtaking!!

they are actually more purple. the one on the left is "Flower Show II" by the bentarx Studio for bentarx Patt#3013. and the one on the right is Noble Family by Mizuki for bentarx #3950

Wow it looks like you had lots of fun. I love all your fabrics. That should keep you busy for a while. Have fun and thanks for sharing with us.

Boy you must have had a lot of fun! You got some great goodies there!

I have the Atkinson's "Happy Hour" pattern that you show in pic #5, but have not made it yet. I'll be interested in seeing the quilt you make using this pattern. Great shopping spree, BTW!

All I can say is Wow!!!!

Did you leave ANYTHING for anyone else to buy? I love your new stash. The books/magazines made me drool.. pick me pick me they said... if you ever get 'bored' of them surely they would love to sit on my coffee table. I bet you had a blast shopping. I think fabric stores.. are like non fattening candy stores for quilters. Just one piece of this one.. a small bit of that one.. look my hips did not get larger and I even had ONE more I had to have..

:shock: I left TONS at the stores since I couldn't buy it all! :-( I would just love to be able to go into a quilt shop and ask for a yd of everything!! maybe more wouldn't that be awesome :twisted: could you just imagine the look on their faces :lol: :lol: Yes I got a the 2 mags for 50 cents but the books were more of course but since DH picked those out and some other things I can't take all the blame,LOL.

That cover pick is what caught me! I am trying to copy the colors the bast I can for my first one. It looks easy ;-) I really liked all the patterns in that book. Hope to see yours soon also.

Gorgeous, I love all the florals. I have never taken my Hubby fabric shopping with me. I buy lots more when he isn't around. Your Hubby is very good at picking things out for you to buy. You both sure did a good job with the shop hop. I love Thimbleberries patterns and have several of her books.

what a haul, beautiful fabric.
