My visit to JEllen's House of Fabrics in Lyndhurst Ohio

A few weeks ago I heard about a new quilt shop opening that would be carrying mostly Moda fabric.  So Tuesday I traveled to JEllen's House of Fabric.  She has only been open a couple weeks, but I think I will be visiting her whenever I get the chance!  The main reason I went was because she had her fabric on sale for $8 a yard and she had the Moda Let It Snow Batik fabric line that I needed.  I will return because she has a beautiful shop, great product and best of all she is a BUCKEYE!!!  As I do every shopping trip I picked up some more Scarlet and Gray fabric.  She had the Moda Marbles that I use in my quilts.  Another customer asked what I was going to do with the fabric and I told them about my quilts and my Blog.  Turns out Joyce is an alumni and there were a couple of other ladies from Ohio State visiting.  Check out Joyce's blog at JEllen's House of Fabric Blog where she talks about meeting me!




I picked up this pattern at Cottonpickers Quilt Shop and the Let It Snow Batik Snowflake Panel and Snowflake fabric for the borders. The pictures don't do this fabric justice. It's a really beautiful Dark Blue and with Gray accents.

Then when I visited Joyce I purchased the rest of what I needed for the quilt top.
