My guild’s quilt show was this weekend so I spent some money and added some yardage.  I noticed that at the show I was paying more attention to the quilting than the design.  In past shows I usually look at how quilts look overall without really paying attention to the quilting.  That was opposite this year and really reflects on my development as a quilter.  I didn’t take pictures this time around since I didn’t have a whole lot of time to spend.  I also noticed that I was looking at the tools and patterns that I couldn’t get at my LQS.  I ended up getting bundles of fat quarters of hand dyed fabric, a skirt pattern and a holder for my ruler.  The ruler holder was made by a local woodworking group and I think it’s beautiful.  I’ll try to remember to take a picture of all my purchases during the day.
