I've been having lots of fun! First off I went a Fall Bus trip with my friend Kate. We went to eight different quilt shops. First off was the Quilted Steeple Quilt Shop in Lone Rock, Iowa.
It was a fun shop! They also have a Retreat Space for sewing in the basement of the Church. Sleeping quarters are in the Parsonage. Great shop with lots of fabrics and kits.
Next shop was Calico Hutch in Hayward, MN.
This shop has four rooms of fabrics to get lost in. Oh My! A room for wools, regular fabrics on the bolt, panels and sewing machines and way in the last room, kits and sale fabrics. Also lots of batiks in the last room. It was kind of hard not to go nuts!
We spent the night in Albert Lea, MN and the next morning we were on our way to Buttermilk Basin in Spring Lake Park, MN. I'll have more on my trip tomorrow!
