colorful inspiration in quilts...

I have to admit that I love fabric as much as I love paper! I used to sew a lot when I was a stay-at-home mom, before the computer days and owning my own business. Now, I'm lucky if I have time to pick up a needle to even sew a button now! But that doesn't stop me from browsing in a fabric store.
On our last day in Kauai last month, we found a fabric store and of course, we had to stop to check it out. I was in color heaven! Rows and rows of incredible hues and patterns.
The Kapaia Stitchery is the name of the shop, right on Kuhio Highlway in Lihue, Kauai, Hawaii. Besides Hawaiian fabrics, they also had on display a variety of beautiful quilts. It was hard to take photos of the quilts since they were hanging up high but here's a peek at some of them.
And my fabric which I hate to tell you is still sitting on my sewing machine. Maybe this weekend...
