Quilt Shop Hop - Day 6

Up at 6:30 out of the door by 7:15 ... boy where there is a will there is a way! Hit the road with a mocha in hand -- made it as far as Seward McDonald's before a diet coke was needed. By and far it was a pretty uneventful trip -- road, weather, traffic -- very smooth going. I loved the time zone change...gave an extra hour of shopping! Scored some cool fabrics at four of the remaining shops on this year's 'hop'. Have been very focused on getting the appropriate fabrics for Noah's quilt, have 50+ at last count. It will be a one-of-a-kind quilt!!! North Central Nebraska has alot of magnificent views. The "Cowboy Trail" (bike/hike path) parallels highway between Norfolk and Valentine -- would really be fun to bike that route.

Cool stops today were "Quilters Candy Shoppe" in O'Neill, "In Stitches" in Ainsworth, "The Quilting Cupboard" in Valentine, and "Pat's Creative" outside Hemingford (Debi and I tried to find this one last fall -- found out today GPS info is incorrect -- duh).

Two more shops tomorrow and I will be turning my punch card in at the 39th stop ... will be nice to have this "under my belt" ... I'm anxious to get back into my sewing room!
