Off to Cameron!

Here we are at the beginning of a very long day... It's 6am at Andover bus station. 
The flight to Detroit was very good - we managed to get two seats each so we were able to stretch out and enjoy it. We transferred to Kansas on a much smaller plane where I found myself in between two mathematicians reading maths books! I am reading 'Me before you'.........
We spend a while choosing our hire car and finally settle on this cute Jeep. 
It's got UK in the plate. 
Here is the Super 8 in Cameron, basic but perfectly fine. 
It has a small pool...
....and a nice breakfast. 
There is a quilt shop right next door! 
This quilt is hanging outside. 
Inside we find the three travelling quilters we met at breakfast. 
The shop is lovely. 
Lots of fabric. 
Lovely quilts. 
And bags. And a wreath. Maybe a future project for Sprat and Winkle?
We saw the first of several jar quilts.
Kits...
Sweet pincushions. 
The shop is packed with inspiration. 
This looks like an idea for a jelly roll...
Crochet cotton to show Tina!
Simple pinwheels...
And another idea for those 2.5" strips. 
There is also a Walmart next door so we explore that too! 
Hamilton is just 14 miles away along a lovely country road so we are off there next!
