After spending 5 days in Washington DC, I thought it would be fun to share a collage of photos and patriotic fabrics. Recently we've received several digital printed fabrics with American themes, which are detailed photo albums of United States icons.
Whether you are a patriotic American, or making a quilt to commemorate your travels around the US, we have a number of novelty prints to capture every moment down Memory Lane…or Pacific Highway #1!
From Hawaii to New England Lighthouses, and from Route 66 to New York City, we carry fabrics to show your favorite vacation spots in the US.
A couple nights ago, on my last night in our nation's capitol, I had a long moonlit walk among the illuminated monuments. I passed the White House, and walked all the way down to the World War II Memorial, then walked in the dark all the way along the edge of the reflecting pool. It was quiet, 65 degrees, and the long pool reflected the Washington Monument on one end, and the Lincoln Memorial at the other end. I finished by climbing the stairs and sitting at Lincoln's feet, looking out across the National Mall.
While in Washington DC at the SAQA conference, I also spent a day at the DAR Museum to interview the textile/quilt curator, and tour the collections. You will see those 3 videos popping up soon.
