One of the reasons I love going to this shop is because they carry fabric lines that are more to my tastes. And of course they have so many lovely samples made up.
Check out the ceiling tiles. This building used to be an old corner drug store. The floors also are old and creaky but so inviting.
Sometimes I wish this shop was located closer to me, as I think it would be so fun to take some classes there.I also picked up this Miss Rosie's pattern.
The lady who was checking me out wanted to know if there was another one on the rack? It looks so great to use for 30's fabric or even scraps.
And speaking of Miss Rosie's Quilts, did you know that Carrie has published two new books?? And there is a little contest going on for those who purchase her book. Hop over to Carrie's blog and "read all about it!"
Okay, now I have to get back to my February Schnibbles quilt. Having to start over, because I was not happy with my first fabric choice.
Happy Quilting :-)
Looks like a fun quilt store! I think you should go there more often. LOL
ReplyDeleteDon't you just love old buildings that have creaky floors. The old Hardware stores used to be like that, way before Home Depot etc. LOL
ReplyDeleteLooks so fun! I can't wait to see what you make with the pattern.
ReplyDeleteFun at the corner drug store! Next time I want to go along. OK?
ReplyDeleteYou have reminded me that I made Miss Rosie's Cheap Trick but it needed borders - wonder where I hid it. HMMMMM
Hey, who said a drug store couldn't be fun? LOL
ReplyDeleteNow THAT is a DRUG STORE...LOL
Looks like a very nice shop. Great new pattern too.
ReplyDeleteI'll go with you to a corner drug store anytime...yours is inviting!!
ReplyDeleteToday my husband and I went to lunch, Joanne's and a bookstore. Now, I am not saying that I chose the places that we went based on their location, but we did stop at two of my favorite LQS because we were so close to them. Funny how that happened...
ReplyDeleteThat looks like The Patchwork Pig...I love that shop.
ReplyDeleteI just love to hang out in quilt shops - Have you been to Billings, Montana? Fiber Works is a fabulous shop http://fiberworks-heine.com/
ReplyDeleteI don't think she has a blog but her online store is fun to look at. I am in VA and we have some great ones to hang out in also..I'll be watching your quilts come to life!!!
I'd love to go there. I remember those creaky floors at our old drugstore - so glad they put the building to good use!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a great shop, would love to visit it! The pattern you bought is a nice one. Thanks for the information about Carrie's books. I've started my first Schnibble, hope to get it done in time!
ReplyDeleteI think it is great that the owners of the patchwork shop have left the beautiful old ceiling as it is. So many people these days want to upgrade old properties.
ReplyDeleteI am itching to see your progress on the "Cheap Trick" quilt. My favorite block design is 'Card Trick' - it looks so complicated when you see it, but it isn't so bad once you know how.
Last Friday I bought fabriclike the blue floral on your header . Nice shop--------------------------cottonreel
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for stopping by my new blog and leaving a kind comment. Your visit was appreciated. Please come again.
ReplyDeleteCheap Trick looks like such a cute pattern!! I don't have any favorite quilt shop any more as everything within 25 miles closed in the past six months. How far away are your favorites?
ReplyDeleteLooks like a charming little quilt shop. My favorite quilt shop is on the other side of town as well about 45 minutes away. Isn't that always how it goes? I think we appreciate our trips there more.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great shop and only around the coner from you? I love that Rosie's quilt - Hugs Nat
ReplyDeleteJocelyn,

I am anxious to see your schnibbles quilt I never heard of them till recently when I quilted two for a client. They are so fresh & pretty
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely shop...oh how I wish there was a shop just like that near me.....or even an hour away would be good.........
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fun time. I love to find great places like that. Steph
ReplyDeleteI love those ceilings! I am looking forward to the next Schnibbles installment. Feb. is almost over!
ReplyDeleteI recognize that shop...Patchwork Pig in Lakeland, right? What fun. I always have fun when I hit that shop. Don't get there very often...it's about an hour and a half for me.
