Yesterday was sunny and mild (for January) and I decided to take a drive out to my favorite quilt shop,
Quilted Threads, for a little retail therapy.
I didn't need anything in particular, but I decided I could buy up to ten yards of fabric. I was looking for things that were a bit out of the ordinary.
I bought half yards of these, a purple, and two blues...

I bought half yards of each of these tweed looking fabrics, a brown, green and blue. They are hard to photograph, but very beautiful.

I bought fat quarters of these yellows.

I bought half yards of these two very different pinks.

I got three yards of this batik, to use to finish up the
Quick Brown Fox.

I also bought half yards of four different WOW (white on whites), and I bought my sister (who came with me) a yard of batiks she was eyeing.
I'll finish up the Four Seasons Doll Swap Quilt later today, while I watch the
tennis at the Australian Open.

Some beautiful picks! Quilted Threads looks like a wonderful shop. If I am ever up that way, which I am sure I will be, I am going to make it a point to stop there.
Gotta love that visit to the fabric store . . . off to check them out online.
Nothing better than retail therapy to ease a busy mind. Love your new goodies.
The fabrics you picked look like yummy candy! Fabric dessert! Have fun.
Oh, you did well! Wish I would have met up with you - it would have been more fun!
It was a totally rough day!!!
