Morro Bay has always been a favourite place to stop and enjoy The Cotton Ball quilt shop.
The outside graphics of this shop are lovely
The detail of the nautilus shell is lovely in the rainbow of colours.
Here is an inside view of the stained glass window on the second floor. It used to be fill with fabrics and trim and is now an office.
The ceiling as you enter is filled with sea life.
They have a lovely collection of silks and embellishments to choose from.
They are stocked from floor to ceiling with fabrics and samples.
A colourful silk corner
Love those shadow boxes.
Some yummy vegetable on that top quilt.
Beautiful sea life and other critters to make.
A lovely new bird of paradise flower just in bloom. Come and check them out, but be aware the shop is on sale after 43 years of ownership. Check out their website at

In Pacific Grove I went to Back Porch Fabrics and got some lovely pictures.
Lovely use of colour.
Beautiful quilt show in this room
Lovely applique.
Mary Lou Weidman inspired quilts.
Beautiful paint job on an old sewing cabinet.
Doesn't this quilt top look like a stained glass window?
