So, I'm on vacation with my family and hadn't really planned on blogging while away, but I'm stuck in our room with a napping baby so here are some random thoughts....

• Wisconsin is freaking amazing. Seriously. I have a tendency to choose some less-popular places to vacation but have never been disappointed. This is no exception. Definitely feeling the love for the Badger State. In summer anyway, probably not so much in the cold, cold winter.
• It seems that our favorite thing to do on vacation is eat. Really, it's one of my favorite things to do at home, too, but more fun here since I'm not doing the cooking. Do calories consumed while on vacation count?
• I have found a few quilt shops to browse. Sadly, none have been very modern. They seem to really like their batiks up here. Which are lovely in there own right, just not really for me. I did go to the best one so far this morning. It was in Sturgeon Bay, but I can't think of the name right now. I'll let you know when I'm not trapped under a sleeping baby.

Whenever I find a new fabric shop, I always get this excited little feeling before I go in, thinking what if this is the place? You know, what if this is the place that has that whole line of hard-to-find fabrics just sitting in the back on a dusty shelf because nobody realizes what a gold mine they have? I have yet to find this store, of course, but I did get a bit excited this morning when my little eye spied a bolt of Katie Jump Rope in the corner. Of course it wasn't one of the prints that I really love, but I got a few FQs anyway, mostly thinking of a future giveaway. My question is this... If it were you in this situation and found a few yards of an out of print fabric, would you buy it even if you weren't in love?
