Paducah


This past week we did a road trip to Paducah, Ky !
We went to see the town, NOT the ZOO of the International Quilt Show.
We went to Hancocks of Paducah fabric store, like a warehouse of designer fabrics with designer prices.
We went down town to the river history of the city. Nice restored old buildings.
Elenor Burns has a shop there.. I did buy some fabric and enjoyed her samples on the walls.
From there we explored the quilt museum. It had wonderful artsy, complicated, masterpiece quilts.
The nicest part was cruising the big park with the trees in bloom ! Wish you were there Lin.
Coming home, was heavy rain and the roads we chose going far around St Louis and its flooding, were filling up. Anything that could be a mud puddle was !
Its always nice to do a trip... but nice to get home too.
This month a 55 yard roll of batting was delivered. I now have 5 finished Good Deeds ready to go !
