Local Quilt Shop ...
Better quality of quilting fabric (with higher prices to match) than a fabric store -joannes, hobby lobby, michaels and handcocks (not to be confused with handcocks of paducah)

The Boomerang Swap is here on the board and is LOTS of fun. You have a group of 36 people.....everyone sends a F8 (Fat 8th) to everyone else in the group....so you get back 35 F8s and then you make a 12 1/2 inch block for each person and send it back to them. I am behind and trying to get caught up :( It really is alot of fun.

Love all those kinds of fabrics and honestly don't need any more of any of them, soon our local shop hop comes around and don't know what to even look for. On a huge fabric diet so far this year. Guess it is so I can buy gas haha, not any fun tho.
