Yesterday after class, we had some time before dinner and setting up for the evening lecture & trunk show to make a visit!
How could you miss the gorgeous Glacier Star in the front window? And those blooming pots of flowers….I love Alaska in the summer, The colorful cascades of of vibrant blooms everywhere you turn!
They specialize in batiks, gorgeous Asian prints, delightful modern fabrics, and Alaskana! The perfect place to pick up fabrics, patterns and kits as souvenirs of your great adventure here on the Last Frontier!
Do I feel a quilt color scheme coming on??
Or maybe, I’ll just dress to match! LOL!

The quilt in the upper left of the first picture is based on a picture by Barbara Lavalle. She does such wonderful, colorful pictures of native Alaska women and children. She autographed her book "Painted Ladies" for me when I was in Alaska years ago. What a great shop! Thanks for sharing.
bonnie, thanks for the slide slow. I really like the Alaskan-themed quilts I see. I've found one designer; now to work on the other.
I am always amazed at the wide variety of fabric when I either visit a quilt shop or online I never see the same fabric. It looks like you are having a great trip, thank you for sharing with us, I have always wanted to go to Alaska however my finances say differently. You are the next best thing to being there. Have Fun...
