Who wouldn't love a vista like this?
But I promised to tell you about a fabric lovers' paradise....
Located in the lovely, artsy, and tiny town of Floyd, VA is the most amazing fabric shop. It's called Schoolhouse Fabrics and is 3 floors and two buildings of an old schoolhouse, hence the name, that have been transformed into an incredible fabric heaven. It's almost overwhelming for a fiber addict like myself, but at the same time ...nirvana! This is a picture of the outside of the building so you can see just how huge it is.

And here is just one side of one of the rooms....

Amazing! You can see why I'd be excited...well at least pretend that you can! I know that not everyone is as much of a nut case about fabric as yours truly. As a matter of fact, my husband and sons don't get it at all, but they are very sweet and find other things to do in Floyd while I get my "fix." Of course eating homemade pie down at Oddfella's Cantina isn't really too much of a hardship...
Here's a picture of my haul from this trip.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZZ38nRmnGJdl2fY-Hh-1Pu2WifR0bhkRjU0uTDcKGqJuVnid6gToor153KBVqaWZTYFTYuLN5c-34OGHdKA8UfwILIRms_LiIiZtVGZJOjRXgfJ5KIo9GuP8RZ1jrZ0Goo9-Vd6UjONI/s320/IMG_4169.jpg)
I was very good and only made a few impulse buys...that dark green silk duponi was a remnant I couldn't refuse and is so much more gorgeous than the picture...and can you see a fall harvest fairy in those fabrics on the left? Nothing like a stash of new supplies to make you want to get right to work, so perhaps I should go do just that!
