Retreat Weekend

I went on a retreat last week.  We made a bee-line to several shops in Indiana. 

Our first stop was Erica's Sewing and Craft Supplies.  A large store with a terrific variety of fabrics to choose from, plus sections for wool, hand embroidery, cross-stitch, knitting and other crafting supplies. 

They had a big 30's section.

On to Shipshawana to Lolly's.  It was my first visit and I was very impressed.

 Everything is so neat and tidy. 

 

A boat-load of fat quarters!

 Next up - Yoder's Department Store,  They were waiting for us. 

 A huge fabric section.

Their Shop-Hop basket Quilt. 

 

Here are some of the quilts we worked on or finished during the retreat.
