We got to visit in Lancaster and other PA towns in some shops several years ago and it was the neatest thing. Actually it's been 6 years and I'd love to go back. It's a long way from Alabama!

Don't know what Maypo is, but do know what ShooFly Pie and Whoopie Pies are.

I am so glad you had a terrific trip. My hometown of York, PA is just west of Lancaster and I get up a least 2 times a year - funny that there are quilt shows at exactly that same time . .hmm... Anyway I always go to The Quilt and Fabric Shack - as in ALWAYS!! It's Amish-owned and the prices are much lower than regular quilt shops (as are other Amish-ownd fabric shops). Last year I bought jelly rolls for $28 instead of $35.

Bitty Kinna's was new last year and a very nice shop - nice people. Old Country Store has all my pre-selected fat quarter packges plus all the other goodies in the store. Did you go upstairs to see the quilt display? I've been to most of the others - Obie's looks - interesting.

Thank you so much for the reminder of all the storesm up there. I'm going up the end of July for a family visit and - Quilt Odyssey wich I've been to every single year, including the horribly hot ones over in Gettysburg. And I always travel with my copy of "The Quilter's Travel Companion" as I make stops all the way from NC to PA - terrific book.

Do you remember where you got the piece of fabric with the deer? I am looking for some. Thanks

Just had to find out what maypo is and I did. Then I did a search for Obie's Country Store and there is more than one site, but I found this site interesting as it gave several fabric stores and locations with a map pinpointing where they are:

I forgot to tell you that you got a wonderful batch of fabric!

An Obies visit is an experience. During my last visit I was standing near the front door and suddenly hundreds of pot holders and placemats came tumbling down in front of me. I had not touched a thing. Have not been back.
