Fabulous Fabric Friends and Finds

"On the Road Again...."  I feel like that's the theme song for my Hubby right now.  I miss him, but he is off this time tending to his parent's needs.  It is a trip that he really needed to make since he was unable to be there for his father's surgery a couple of weeks ago.  His father was able to come home today so he is progressing well.  Tomorrow is his father's birthday.  Hubby is never there for this occasion, and his brother will be spending the day there too.  It will certainly be a special one for both of his parents!

Yesterday was spent with my quilting sisters.  We always laugh a lot when we are together, and it was something we all really needed to do.  We fabric shopped, but we also went to Half-Priced Books and found some......you guessed it....quilting books! Fabric is our lives!  We had a very relaxed lunch, at the frozen tundra...aka Olive Garden too. I've heard rumors that there is an energy crisis here due to the extreme heat but you'd never know it there.  Do freezing toes sell more pasta??  

I didn't have enough of the fabric experience yesterday, so I did a wee bit more shopping today.  Hubby's not home, so I have a little time to get it hidden...oops, I mean folded and put away....before he gets back.  Actually, I wanted to check out a quilt store that I hadn't known about.  After driving passed it a few times during my attempt to make asphalt crop circles, I finally discovered the secret entrance. It's small, but the people are lovely, and the fabric is beautiful.  Too bad that cotton prices have gone up.  I also was able to find the little sewing machine I wanted to get my grand-daughter for Christmas at JoAnns...  and it was on sale!! It was a good day.
