This is the first faabric shop I went to upon arriving in Portland, Or. It is very much like Mary Jo's here in NC.It may be a bit larger (is that possible?) any way I was in there about 3 hours( not nearly enough time LOL) but I did make the most of it. I was only interested in quilting fabrics so that is where I spent most of my time.I bought a LOT of fabrics. I can't believe I have just now realized I haven't taken a pic of any of my purchases , oh well, another time.I did take some photos of the inside of the store, there were really some pretty things on display.
Well................ I have been trying to post more pics of the inside of the store but blogger will not let me. Darn it................ Will try later.
We went to about 10 stores while we were traveling, will post about them as time goes by,but I will say, if you ever get the chance to go to Fabric Depot in Portland it is well worth the time. I was overwhelmed, it was a good thing I didn't have any more time. But we did go to two more stores while we were there. Both were very nice, with very friendly people working in them.
I hope everyone has a great Halloween, we have no Trick or treaters around here, and I do miss that, but if my children were young I would not let them go out either. I hate that our world has gotten this way, I know there is a lot of good people here but it's the one bad one that spoils the fun for all. Enough said........
Will post again soon, have fun quilting memories, I sure do.......

yeah, it's a sad sign of our times that trick-or-treating has become such a dangerous proposition! Your quilts show and tell was great the other day, can't wait to see them all done!
Hello and welcome home from vacation! I look forward to seeing some of those 1500 pictures..*VBS*
Thank you for the nice comment recently, and yes, I'm sure we'd hit it off really great and probably get into alot of trouble fabric shopping!
If I'm ever in your area, I'll be sure to contact you aheard of time *VBS* thanks for the invite, hugs, Finn
I love Fabric Depot. We went there when we were in Portland 3 years ago. Did you know that Fabric Depot gives on-line orders 30% discounts, plus if you sign up for e-mails they often have weekend sales.
Sounds like you and DH had a busy summer. What an interesting trip to take.
