Look at what I purchased in Lancaster yesterday
#1
Yesterday my hubby and I ventured out to Lancaster. My mission was to get fabric for my first OBW, however I did not find anything that said buy me and when I did find something I liked the repeat was not large enough. Lancaster was crowded but surprisingly the fabric shops were not crowded. I bought some unusual batiks (pictures 5-6). I have no clue what I am going to do with them.
Thanks for looking!

Opal I don't know if you have been reading all the posts lately about Batiks. A lot of the gals have said they bleed really bad. Make sure you wash and wash them over again until the water runs clear before using them in a quilt.
You got a nice assortment of fabrics.

They are all pretty, but the one with the sewing theme are really interesting. Looks like they are really getting ready for next season. Beautiful fall and winter colors!! Where did you go? Zooks, Farmer Brown, Weavers, Goods??
