Quilt Shop Hopping

 On our way home from Washington state, we decided to take a short detour and do a little quilt shop hopping in Missouri.  We visited both Missouri Star Quilt Company in Hamilton, MO, and Quilting is My Therapy in Liberty, MO.  



I really haven't ordered much fabric from Missouri Star in years, but I used to order regularly.  It was really a lot of fun to visit the shops there in person.  Missouri Star actually encompasses several building in the little town of Hamilton.  It is a nice quiet place with lots of beautiful fabric.  I'm really glad we stopped and explored there.

 
 
We also went to Quilting is my Therapy, which is a much smaller shop, but also nice.  I've been watching long-arm quilting tutorials by Angela Walters, the shop owner, on YouTube, and I wanted to get one of her quilt-along panels to try.  I also bought one of her quilting rulers (Elvira).  I got a ruler base for my machine just before we left for Washington, and I'm looking forward to giving it a try.
