Feels like I am loosing a good friend

There are several things that are high on my list of relaxing things to do.  Read a book, cup of tea, glass of wine and of course a walk on the beach.  There is also visiting a fabric shop - especially a visit when you are really just there to browse to see what inspiration may be sparked as a result.

Several year ago, I discovered a shop in Apex somewhat by accident - driving back from taking my kids to the park, taking a slightly different route home.  There it was - it was actually my daughter who was the one who spied it.  Many yards of fabric later, this shop - my all time favorite quilt shop - Plain & Simple in Apex, NC - is closing its doors.

It was a beautiful place - full of much inspiration.  Thanks for all the beautiful fabric.

I joined lots of people today as we shopped for fabric.  I got some fat quarters and a jelly roll.

I did get several multiple yard cuts of some fabric - some Pure (!), some tea themed and some gold that will make a good quilt backing at some point.

 Thanks to all the wonderful people who worked there!   I will miss you!

Happy Stitching!
