Road Trip

Tuesday was road trip day. I left Victoria with three other ladies from the quilt guild headed for Sequin. The primary purpose of the trip was to drop off all the quilts the guild was donating to Day One Bags. Here is a link to their page that tells about their mission. We met the director for our region in the Walmart parking lot in Sequin and transferred the quilts from our vehicle to hers. 

After we finished our business in Sequin, we drove to the nearby town of McQueeney. It’s a little bitty town with a large quilt shop called Fiberworx. I didn’t take a picture of the outside of the building, but I found this on the internet. I think it is the same building.

There is a lot of fabric and a large classroom inside. 

They also had a lot of books and patterns. I didn’t find a pattern for this one, but I really like it. 

We spent about an hour in there and probably still didn’t see it all. It was just overwhelming. 

From there, we went to Luling and got some barbecue. 

I got brisket and sausage and had plenty left to bring home. 

There is also a quilt shop in Luling, Holly Dee’s. The owner has taught classes at our guild before. 

Lots of great fabrics, precuts, and notions. By the time we left there, we were ready to head home. It was a tiring trip, but it was a lot of fun, and the company was great. Best of all, we got all our donation quilts dropped off. I want to get busy and get some more done for 2026, and also some zipper bags. I saw on their website that they were also taking zipper bags for donations.
