Have fun in Portland! There are a lot of smaller local shops to visit besides Fabric Depot!

Powell's -- what a wonderful place! I hung out there a lot when I lived in Portland. I now get my used books from them online (awaiting my latest order).

Their selection of quilt books is awesome. I always go over budget when I shop.
