Geeky Fabric

I love that my husband is a comic nerd!  He turned me into a comic nerd and my girls too!  I have been to several comic book conventions with him and we always have SO much fun.  Anyway, all that to say, my superhero fabric came Monday!! Thanks for all the ideas for how to make a quilt with large scale prints!  I think I know what I am going to do...can't wait to get started :o) I absolutely LOVE the retro look of the prints...back from when I was a kid.


And this weekend we woke up on Saturday morning and just decided to drive 2 1/2 hours to Charlotte, one of my fave cities....ever feel like you just need to get out of town for a little while??  Right outside of Charlotte is a GREAT fabric store called MaryJo's.  Sooo many bolts of fabric!!  I could've stayed there all day.  I found more geeky fabric while I was there, too!  


Isn't this fabric great??  I have been collecting superhero fabric for a quilt for the hubs.  I want it to be amazing!
