It was a happy Saturday

It all started with a plan to check out a new quilt shop in Oxford.


Starting our day, we stopped at Paul's in Rochester for breakfast.  From there we headed to Oxford and our first peak at the new quilt store that just opened in June.  Kindred Spirits Quilt Shoppe was a splendid find.  It has beautiful fabrics.  The grand opening is Saturday, July 19th.


From there we went to Ortonville to a shop called Mabelena's.  A packed shop with a beautiful selection of fabrics and quilt supplies.  Then we headed north on M-15 to Linda's Country Quilt Shop in Davison.  Not only did this shop have a splendid selection of fabrics, but it has beautiful rooms for classes with so many quilts displayed all through the rooms that would inspire not only quilters but also non-quilters.


Our last stop was an early dinner at The Burning Oak Smokehouse on M-24.  If you like BBQ's, this is your place.


So we headed towards home, each with a bag from each store.  Yes, it was a beautiful summer day.
