So I Went to North Dakota

Last week my cousin and I went to Minnesota. I know what you're thinking...it says North Dakota right there! ^^ We arrived in Minneapolis and drove up to the North Shore on Lake Superior. It's gorgeous!! I'm already planning a trip back! We met a SUPER nice guy at the Duluth visitor center who was so helpful in planning our next few days. And he told me Fargo was only six hours away!! And I could walk across the headwaters of the Mississippi River en route! We were in Minnesota to check off Minnesota on our Visit All the States Tour and a quick detour over to North Dakota (and South Dakota!) would cross off even more for me! So off we went!! We stopped at the headwaters:)

IMG_6994.PNGModern Textiles commented that they are in Fargo and located just blocks from GameDay! Obviously I had to stop by! Never doubt the power of social media!!

IMG_6803.JPGEvery wall had something even more adorable than the last.

IMG_6805.JPGHow happy are these mugs?! One now lives on my desk! And they had tons of Merchant & Mills loot. That's a site where I often fill my cart and then back out because the international shipping is too overwhelming. They had everything! So I bought everything!!

IMG_6806.JPGThey sell washi! Have I mentioned my love of washi?! Just here and here and here.

IMG_6808.JPGCan we talk about the wall of fabric? These gals have AMAZING taste! They literally had a wall of fabric I wanted to buy. I only got to meet one owner, Roxanne. She's awesome! She's definitely good quilty peeps!! And I'm sure Connie is just as fabulous.

IMG_6809.JPGThey had an extensive collection of wool felt. So pretty!LC
