Fabric Aquisition Road Trip

 We traveled through and around floods recently

but it was worth it,

Because I found some fun fabrics, mostly on sale, on my recent F.A.R.T.

or fabric aquisition road trip.
Thanks to the help of the Country Register

I knew which little Saskatchewan towns and hamlets boasted quilt shops.

Such as Wolseley, Saskatchewan, home of Tiger Lily Quilts,

where I got half price fat quarters and  a charm pack of Kaffes.

I live in the neighbourhood of Wolseley in Winnipeg, so we had to stop!

And I scored half a jelly roll of Juggling Summer by Moda

in the sale bin at Collette's shop in Foam Lake

and collected a range of pinks/reds/greens in hand dyed wool

from Periwinkle in Saskatoon

and some camper prints from Century Sewing in the same city.

I love the glamping fabric

and found the VW bus canvas

although I see that the VW insignia has been replaced with the peace sign.

I'm going to make bags and totes from that fabric,

using that purple webbing for handles.

And I found some goodies at  the thrift store in Rosthern

including an embroidered cotton pillowcase, two pieces of hand dyed fabric,

and two little embroidery kits.

I'm going to have fun playing with all of this loot!
