Fabric---Caribbean style

Well, OK, the first leg of our vacation was to see my sister-in-law, my 2 nieces and their hubby's, as well as our great nephews(3) and great niece (1) in Florida (also where we got on the Allure of the Seas).

Miami did not have any wonderful quilt shops, but while my husband was hunting for fishing supplies, we passed a HOBBY LOBBY, and as luck would have it, they dropped me off for a shopping excursion! I found many fabrics for my QUILT OF VALOR projects:

 

One fabric for 2 sundresses I am making:

 

And a few just because....

 

On St. Thomas we found a very small quilt shop, FABRIC IN MOTION, where both my husband and I picked up some very pretty batiks.

 

 

 

His picks on top, mine on bottom:

Then when We got home, I had a couple of packages waiting for me! Which is a very good thing to come home to!

This awesome rose print is for a quilt for my mom, a rose lover:

 

Well, I have now put myself on a strict quilting budget! No further purchases for 2 months, with the exception of supplies to FINISH an already started project! BOO HOO! That means until July 17th!
