Clarification (more quilt show photos at the end)

The shops that I mentioned yesterday are not all close - 3 (one that I did not mention at all) are... The others are up to 2 hours away... (there are still others in that 2 hour radius that I do not visit...) I am also about 3 hours from Lancaster County, Pa. home to a multitude of quilt shops... Z&S has an online shop that I know several of you have used or at leasr perused...

& I am grateful for the local shops & I try to support my local shops as much as my budget can allow...

I know narrow-minded Thirtysomethings... & I know that there are avant garde 60 & 70 somthings out there in the quilting world - Freddy Moran, off the top of my head...

My file came back to me soon after my post, so the afternoon time killer worked!

Wanna see what I "expected" to see at the Annapolis show?
Storm at Sea with Mariners Compass
Storm at Sea with applique
Blue crab
You see, Annapolis is a "Water" oriented town - home of the U.S. Naval Academy & all... & Maryland is known for crabs... There are some places where crab houses are more prevalent than McDonalds! (I used that analogy, because there are some places with a McDonalds on every block!) So I always expect to see watery/crabby quilts... :o)
