Adventures on Saturday

I received a gift card to Hobby Lobby for graduation and it was burning a hole in my pocket.Now I have a few new toys. I picked up the fat quarters for the Stars Quilt-along and the larger cut is for the backing.

Mom and I were dropped off at Hobby Lobby while DH headed for Bass Pro. Now you know that's going to take a while. Once we were done at HL, we strolled down to Hancock Fabrics to see what kind of trouble we could get into. We finished there and still no husband so we walked out to the plant sale in the parking lot. Mom found two gorgeous hanging baskets and I found a banana pepper.

I finally just called him to see where in the heck he was and when he would be around to pick us up. A little bit. That was my answer. We ladies ended up waiting in front of an empty store, visiting, and admiring our purchases. To be fair, he lost a lot of looking time driving across town and back. Still, I think next time, we'll drop him off and then go shopping.
