Back From Vacation

Just got back yesterday from our wonderful week in Belgium and Holland. I did manage to stop briefly in a quilt shop in Amsterdam and I pick up a pattern with canal houses on it. They had the quilt on the wall of the shop and my husband really fell in love with it. Fabrics were pretty pricey so I only bought the pattern. Besides my husband does not have a lot of patience when it comes to visiting quilt shops so I did not want to spend any time really looking. If I had been there by myself I would have looked a lot more. Probably would have bought a lot more as well!

Here is a link to a blog about the pattern and a photo of the quilt.

Going on Vacation!!!

We (my husband, daughter, her boyfriend and me) are leaving tomorrow for Holland and Belgium. I hope to get some great photos of windows and buildings for future quilts. I think my quilting inspiration is starting to come back and I will be motivated to do some creative work when we get back.

I will post when we return.
