Resources:
Parkland Parish (super friendly staff & customers)
Trains, Fabric, etc. (no, seriously)
Island Quilter (Love!)
The West Seattle Fabric Co. (Love!)
Drygoods Design (Love!)
Pacific Fabrics (yes to Northgate, SODO = NONO)

August 13th, 2012How fun! I’m in your neck of the woods this week (we’re staying in Seaside and just spent the afternoon in Astoria!) Those onion rings do look amazing! Have a great week :o)
August 13th, 2012Ive been following your excitement on IG and I am super jealous of the fun times and your Japanese goodies…
August 13th, 2012Those fabrics look almost as yummy as the food! I love the colors of those solids- very tropical looking.
August 13th, 2012Hi-Chew has been a family favorite for many years. I’m glad that it’s more accessible where we live just can’t find more than 2 or 3 flavors. I love all of your fabric picks too. What fun!
August 13th, 2012ERMAGHERD! BurgerVille! Ugh! We need one in Bend soooooo bad!!!

August 13th, 2012I hope you had a great visit in the neighborhoods! I’m so excited that I have shopped in the Tacoma area where you were. Hope you got to enjoy the weather- It was 91 today - may you stay cool!
