After spending three nights in Rome, we rented a Fiat Panda and drove to Montalcino, a fortressed city in Tuscany. This stop was one of our favorites of the vacation. The city is very quaint, it makes you feel like you are a spectator while the locals are hard at work. The main attraction is the wine, so out of the 20 shops in this town, 15 or more carried solely wine. Two tips if you are planning a trip to Italy: 1. Rent a car with GPS (this was just plain helpful) 2. Stay for more than one night in Tuscany.

My favorite shop was a combination of wine, candles and fabric. I bought a meter of white and grey 100% linen striped fabric.
I'll be back later to show you a project with my fabric.
