CRAFT STORES ARE FULL OF POTENTIAL

My recent jaunt to a quilt store in Newmarket inspired me to get back to some small quilt and knitting projects. The store had quilt items, tons of material and a wool area. There was so much to see. I had to contain myself not to buy too much. As a normal crafter, I do have lots of supplies at home.

The selection of fabric covered every colour in great depth. I stuck to fat quarter packages with a selection of 8 different patterns in each packages. The wool section had a good variety from other countries and sources that one would not find in a Walmart or Zellers. Textures and colour combinations were fun to explore. I can use the coloured ones with some plain wool.


The Quilt store in Newmarket Ontario is worth another visit or two in the future. The drive on Leslie Street is a little bit country and little bit city.

What do you think of my buy?
There is something that soothes the soul when products inspire the imagination. What do you see? I see a potential baby blanket or two, scarves, hats and even a winter sweater for me!
