My fabric haul


My fabric haul, originally uploaded by rkkilmer.

Today was perfect day. I drove to Los Alamitos with my hubby to meet up with my son and favorite nephew for breakfast at Hof's Hut. I used to work as a manager at Hof's, so it was a nostalgic visit. I still knew some of the servers and I also knew the General Manager. It was fun playing "remember when" with them. I enjoyed showing off my son and nephew. They were about 5 and 6 when these folks has last seen or heard from me. They couldn't believe those small boys were the handsome young men in front of them.
After breakfast my hubby and I got to spend a few hours kicking around Belmont Shores. This too was a stroll down memory lane. DH and I spent the first year of our marriage in the cutest 2 bedroom house located in the shore. After that, DH was kind enough to take me to M&L fabrics. It has been so long since I had been in there. I honestly could not remember when was the last time. I was able to find backing for 3 quilt tops, fabric for 2 toddler dresses and another birdie sling purse from Amy Butler. I can't wait to get started.
