 On the morning of Friday, December 8, I drove up to pick up Rebecca.  Waving goodbye to Todd in the driveway, we set off toward Ohio. The day before I had done some research online to pick out the shops to stop at.  After checking for photos to verify that they were physical shops, I came up with a list of ten. #1 was Freedom Bound Quilt Shop, in Wauseon, which was having a 50% of everything except sewing machines.  If you are near NW Ohio, they are doing this all of December, so go! #2, The Quilterie, in Celina, is on Main St.  At their recommendation we had lunch across the street at the Anchor and yes, the mushroom swiss burger was very good. #3 on the list was Little House of Stitches, but when Rebecca called to ask a question, she found out they are online only.  So on to the next. #4 was Cotton Junky.  We headed to Tipp City but didn't arrive in time for the posted 4pm closing.  We did find Tippecanoe and Weavers Too where Rebecca got some nice roving for her beret project. 

 I got caught up on my binding. This pattern is Double the Fun by Karen Montgomery.  Fabrics chosen by Country Stitches in East Lansing MI. This pattern is To The Point by Karen Montgomery.  Fabrics chosen by Gossypium Quilt in Issaquah WA. This started as 13 blocks I found in my mom's sewing room.  I did 7 more and here's the result. Now to put labels on them.
