A Favorite

For over a year now, I've been eager to spend some time in Amish country. Observing their way of life interests me, but I also wanted to find someone to sell me a quilt. As I shopped online to see how much I may have to pay for one, it seemed clear the place to start was a baby quilt. :)

While planning a day trip to take with my parents, I found an Amish market we could visit. We loved it. Mom and I bought several things at a variety of booths, mostly food, and both wish we had more time to shop.

One of the booths had many quilted items, most of which were pot holder size or the size of a wall hanging. Right away, a design caught my eye and I asked if there was one in a larger size. The lady running the booth said she'd contact the quilt maker to find out. In a few short weeks, my order arrived: 

I LOVE it!

Truth be told, I'm looking forward to going back for more canned goods, more quilts, and even a hot air balloon ride!
