I love the PA Dutch fraktur print. I have two by the same artist -- and absolutely love them. I lived in the Philadelphia area for 7 years and was less than one hour from Lancaster county. I probably went out there about every 6 weeks or so to shop the outlets and the antique shops, as well as the fun Amish craft and fabric shops. I love being back in UT, but do miss those great experiences. <br />NancyLiahonaGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08649675385193694957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428741656739457202.post-28090045258936275952009-07-24T05:11:58.675-07:002009-07-24T05:11:58.675-07:00Ok, I know this is ancient history, but I've j...Ok, I know this is ancient history, but I've just discovered your blog! lol!

BUT, if I can't have my facial Nair, then forget about it! Your stitching looks great and I love all the fabby you got. What a great trip. Thx for making me put PA on my "to visit" list!Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11001167831077281848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428741656739457202.post-26005135811491225532009-05-21T06:58:40.069-07:002009-05-21T06:58:40.069-07:00Woo!

Beautiful quilty stash finds, too. Great progress on Shores! YGG! I haven't been stitching on mine and need to, but am enjoying what I am stitching so I suppose that counts... right?! ;) I love love love the fraktur that you bought--what a fabulous saying! As my mother (who is visiting) said when I read out the saying to her, it'd be a great sampler verse!Siobhánhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14664728276490470180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428741656739457202.post-2955276398529014712009-05-20T15:19:51.422-07:002009-05-20T15:19:51.422-07:00You know, before I really knew about quilt market,...You know, before I really knew about quilt market, (last year) they had it right here in Portland! I could have gone… argh. Oh well right? Anyway, I am so happy you got to go! It looked like it was awesome. Your pictures are so nice. I love that Amish home, it really is beautiful to see.

There is an Amish community in central Indiana too that is wonderful to go to and you can't beat the prices on fabric! Looks like you had an absolutely wonderful time. I'm so jealous!!!<br />You also bought some great stash - fabric and patterns! I can't wait to see some of these finished. These should definitely keep you busy for a while. What fun! And I love the lithograh you picked up! <br />You asked about patterns when you commented on my blog - yes, I do have some of those Amish oldies but goodies. Why don't you email me and we can discuss them further. I couldn't find your email or I would have sent one to you.<br /><br />And you're making great progress on Shores. I know what you mean about the block taking forever. I felt the same way. I may pick it up today and start on Block 4. May be a push though - feeling good from the dental surgery now - but in a few hours - that could be a different story.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00792171420098351093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-428741656739457202.post-72846916236790582572009-05-20T09:10:25.770-07:002009-05-20T09:10:25.770-07:00What a packed entry.

It is on my vacation list.<br />Be sure to share your Amish quilt. That is on my quilt list too. I havent found a pattern I like yet. Know any good internet sources?tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08129285323616725966noreply@blogger.com
