Trip to the Quilt Shop

Yesterday, my mom and I traveled to Annapolis to visit Cottonseed Glory Quilt Shop. It is quite a shop! They have 6,000 bolts of fabric. I had found a quilt in a magazine recently that featured designer Heather Mulder Peterson. I fell in love with all of her quilts but decided to make her Round About quilt for the large wall in my foyer. I went to this quilt shop because they carried the fabrics that Heather used. They did not have the specific fabric, but with that many bolts of fabric, I had no problem choosing similar fabrics. It was awesome! I have already started to cut my pieces and can't wait to start sewing. Check out Heather's designs and her blog on Anka's Treasures. She has wonderful patterns!
I love this time of year. The weather is amazing. We have had our windows open for days. Probably reek havoc on my sinuses but it is worth it. We are planning a trip To the ATL to see Becky for her birthday. I am sure with my crazy daughter, it will be a blast.
