Local Quilt Shopping
 
I'm a day late, but I did make it to my local Quilt Shop for some "Fabric Therapy" on 'Visit Your Local Quilt Shop Day' yesterday January 24th.  I am so lucky to have a quilt shop just 1 1/2 miles from home.  It is The Busy Thimble and is a great little shop.  There is a nice selection of fabric and books, and it keeps up with what's new especially with the Civil War fabrics and fabrics.  I love that I can get a spool of thread when I need it and they even sell Blendables from Sulky .  Yesterday, I wanted some solids.  This Modern Quilt movement has gotten my attention, and I want to try my hand at it.  A beautiful shade of aqua and then white which seems to be a necessity in the Modern Quilt movement came home with me.   I hope you were able to make it your local shop.  What did you purchase?
