I finally took the time to drive 50 miles north to Ventura to visit Super Buzzy. A wonderful modern quilt shop.
How can one resist entering a store with such an adorable bee outside.
Inside was even more fun. There is a lot to learn about a shop just by looking at the quilts on display
Good use of solids, as well as rainbow and neutral grey.
I like the combination of solids and low volumn prints. I’ve been studying this for a few minutes trying to see if there is one block, or a random setting of basic shapes. Either way, I really like it.
Now for something completely different. A scrappy Dresden Plate. I think I’d like a pattern for this one. I certainly have plenty of scraps.
Another color wheel, although not one I’d use as a tool.
And yarn! They have yarn.
I couldn’t get over the adorableness of this Japanese cotton.
In true origami tradition, this isn’t just a cupcake holder for the yarn, the label band is secured in the middle of the ball. I was sorely tempted, but really what would I do with it other than just look at it? I’m not really into knitting with cotton.
Yes, I bought fabric, but that and the project it’s going into will be for another post.
