The Rest of the Day

After the Suwannee Quilt Shop,  we were directed to  Newberry, Florida, where the nice people directed us to High Springs, Florida, and then on the way home, all on our own,  with the help of a little signage we found.... drum roll, please... Micanopy, Florida! I have decided that I have spent way too much time in my 55 years visiting the  EDGES of the state of Florida!  What a fun day exploring the inside of Florida!  All the towns were very nice,  with great shops and  friendly people.  Micanopy, by far had the most shops and  looked so historical.  We ended up there late in the day and it was Monday and some of the shops were closed.  I would love to go back  and spend the day there just exploring.  This was a display of pottery in an artists co-op  in either Newberry  or  High Springs I am not sure which now....

Let me start by saying,  I have been in my share of quilt shops.   I am sure, not as many as real quilters, but I would venture to say that  I have seen more quilt shops than your average  non-quilter. IN LOTS  OF  STATES. This shop was by far THE BEST! Quilts,  Antiques, A Soda Shop Food Desserts and a  LOT OF  FABRIC!  A ton of fabric!! Everything was so artfully arranged!  Mom loved it also!  A whole room of Christmas! A room for fall. And then,  Everything else so  beautifully arranged!  Kid's rooms,  Orientals, Batiks, Civil War Prints,  Food Prints,  A room to browse books and patterns.... If you are anywhere close... make sure you visit, or make the day trip to see it.  The food was excellent and there is a lovely tea room  and  antique shop next door....
