Road to California

 We drove to Road to California together, just a 5 hour drive! 

On our way to the quilt show, we shopped at Cotton Gin, the cutest fabric store.  It's located in Redlands, California.

Here are some of the cute quilts they had on their wall.

Now, on to the Ontario Convention Center. Our favorite vendor was Minky Kim, and her creations are adorable, just like she is!

Minky Kim is the only vendor where we  spent our money at!

The next day, we went back to the quilt show to enjoy all their beautiful, breathtaking quilts.

This quilt won grand prize, it's mostly needle turn appliqué.

There were hundreds of quilts, these are a few of my favorites.

This quilt is incredible!  Even the frame is part of the quilt!!!

Then we got in the car to drive to M&L fabric store in Anaheim. It used to be a grocery store, but has been a fabric store for 60 years!   The fabric is end of bolt and goes on and on. It's Riley Blake and Robert Kaufman fabric for $3.98 a yard!!! You see how big this aisle is, there were 5 of these aisles with fabric on both sides.  We stocked up on backgrounds for our future quilts :)

This is what we bought $$$

We went to Paul's Place for a late lunch. They have the best onion rings I've ever had!  I ordered a Patty Melt, it's a hamburger patty with melted cheese and grilled onions, grilled on caraway seed bread. It was soooooo good!!! Not that healthy though....

The next day we drove home, but not before we stopped at one more quilt shop on the way home. Trish Tac Sew in Desert Springs.

I'd like to thank Nedra for taking all the photos ❤️❤️❤️
