On the road... Raffle quilt ....fabrics

I saw this beautiful raffle quilt on a display in Chestertown, Maryland.

I bought two tickets so wish me luck! :)
It will benefit Crossroads Community Foundation.

I was on a search for a quilt shop, but the town didn't have one and then I saw it!

Chestertown had a lot of little shops that was a pleasure to window shop. We enjoed the view of the frozen river.

On the drive home I found a quilt shop called "Quilter's hive" in DE. They were having a class and had a lot of fabric.

I wasn't looking for any specific fabric so I got half a yard of this pretty print. I usually get in a lot of trouble at quilt shops, so I did good! :)

After I was so good, I realized I need backing for one of my PhD projects, so I ordered online from delta patchwork some fabrics.

I love the packaging and the fabric was very nice, too.

Happy sewing!

The ladies who run Quilter's Hive are very nice. I was there once, but I have friends who have gone there several times to shop and for classes. Good luck winning the raffle quilt!
