We went on vacation this week and since it was raining at times we had some time available to hit some quilt shops. :D And it was fun! At one of the shops we hit, they had a few hundred bolts of Moda fabrics marked down to $5 a yard or 6 yards for $25. Bought a bunch there. :) As you can see, most of the stuff I bought is 1800s/Civil War repros, as well as 1930s repros. The two jelly rolls were marked down to $20 each. Those stacks across the back are 1 yard cuts each, and the larger pieces in front are 4-5 yard pieces because I really liked them. Total = 57 yards. A productive vacation! :thumbup:

quite a haul, good job!!!

I'm thinking - rain or no rain you would've hit the shops!!! LOL :) Your quilts are always so gorgeous!! Looks like a bunch of nice new fabrics here!

OOOHHHH, can't wait to see what you do with those beauties!!

Nice souvenirs you picked up! :) You really know how to have a vacation!

Whoooooooooo Eddie, I like your kind of vacation :thumbup: :thumbup:

Glad you had a good vacation with the family. I like your selections and the prices you got on them.

I want to vacation like you did. We are going to Vermont and I can;t wait to hit some quilting shops.

Isn't it fantastic that your sweetie shares your passion for quilting!!!!
Love those fabrics, good for you, doing your part for the economy.

great, where did you go on vacation?

do you remember the name of the quilt shops you visited?

love your fabrics!

Did you ever make it to the Rainbow's End Quilt Shoppe in Dunedin, FL? It sounds like their sales prices & some look like their fabric.
You had a GREAT vacation!!!

Eddie you know how addicted I am to those Moda fabrics so I am very jealous of your fabulous purchases! Hope you had a great vacation with your family and I really appreciated your recommendations on the long arm machines.

That's what I would call a great vacation!

And did you wife buy a separate stash?

Ahh my kind of vacation! Nice haul eddie!

Wondered why you haven't been on the Board in awhile. Those fabrics are fabulous & those prices were all right.

We went to the beach at Destin, Florida. There were two shops in neighboring Fort Walton that we went to, one was Lynn's Sewing Center and the other was The Sewing Center Around The Block. The later was the one with all of the $5 per yard Moda fabric.

We also stopped through Stitch-n-Frame in Vicksburg, MS on our way back home. They're the ones that I bought my Gammill longarm through. Wow, what a store they have! 10,000 bolts of fabrics. I was like a kid in a candy store! :D

Didn't make it there, we were on the tip of the panhandle in Destin.

Yes, but she hasn't unpacked hers yet. She got probably half as much as me, I'm pretty aggressive with my shopping, LOL! :D

Can't wait to see what you make, Eddie.

Wow! Nice fabric. Can't wait to see what you make out of all of it. I love the Civil War fabrics. I just started collecting it. Hope you & your family had a great vacation

Same here, Eddie (Moda) :D
Love that paisley in the foreground.

My kind of relaxation!! Those souvenirs will be the stuff of more great memories. :thumbup:

Yea, we know you Eddie! :lol: Great haul!!

OH WOW..they are beautiful prints!!! :-D

Woohoo! That is the kind of vacation I like.

Whoo Hoo! Great shopping! You did good.

YAY!!! New stuff.

Quite a haul! Most vacations aren't that productive! I guess we can look forward to seeing some more pictures soon?????

Pretty fabrics!

Very nice!

Wow, Eddie! You are really good at picking out fabric and I can't wait to see the quilts you are going make with it! Your quilts are absolutely beautiful! I'm glad you had a great vacation...it looks like when life gave you lemons, you made lemonade!

Way to go Eddie!

The beaches in Destin are whiter than snow. My DD and family moved there this week. My DSIL has a used car business there. I miss them so already. Been to both those shops, nice.
