In OuR VaN


and enjoying our time away travelling along the south coast of New South Wales. The weather has been mixed so on an overcast day we visited a little town called Ulladulla. You’ll NeVeR guess what I found!?! How unusual for me to even notice... but I found a quilt shop...lol.
It was a lovely shop Marilyn’s Craft Corner Patchwork..filled with plenty of eye candy and Marilyn... the owner... was lovely & friendly and let me spend all the time I wanted wandering through all her nooks and crannies. And again... also unusual... a thing or two found their way into my bag... a book, some buttons and a pin cushion.
The others went off and found a coffee shop so everyone was HaPPy.

OK... better go... have a book to drool look through... xx

Ooo how fun! It's the best feeling coming across a quilt store unexpectedly! *drool* look at all those pretty batiks! My mom would go crazy in a shop like that! Hope you're enjoying your trip and brand new book! :)

My husband says there are no accidents when it comes to patchwork shops on holidays.....he thinks I plan the holidays around them! I think it's important to experience different patchwork shops. Keep having fun.

Now were you driving when you stumbled across this little gem lol. When I drove hubby and I to Ballarat for a break I did so many detours but thankfully he is very understanding and just follows me around sewing, patchwork and antiques lol. Not a lot of spending happens but it is nice to look for the unexpected treasure might just be found.
