Fabric Time!

     For our 38th anniversary, my husband and I went away for a night to Watkins Glen, NY. The State Park is beautiful and took a lot of photos of the gorge. In addition, I managed to hit three quilt stores- Golden Lake in Penn Yann, Oh Susannah in Watkins Glen, and my favorite, Quilter's Corner in Ithaca. I had also just bought some on line fabric. Sort of a fabric fiesta going on here. I also did something I swore I would never do, buy a kit. I hate kits. I don't want to make something someone else already has done. But when I saw the quilt on the wall and the unusual fabrics included, I weakened. I will try and replace some of them so it won't be exact. In Buffalo, we just don't have a variety of fabrics, especially ones I like. I hate to always order online, trying to support LQS that I know struggle to stay open. Feeling kind of fabric glutted at the moment and wondering how I will sew it all. 
From online. Just had to have vintage sewing machines.
For another one block wonder. I think this will be stunning. Repeat 24". From Penn Yann.
Super fun color. Maybe I can be Wanda for a day. From Oh Susannah's
The New American Made Fabric by Clothworks. Want to do their challenge,
but need more colors than Quilter's Corners had.
Guilty of buying a kit. Quilter's Corners.
