Wasatch Front Shop Hop Challenge

Well I went back to one of the quilt shops on the Wasatch Front Shop Hop, Quilts Etc.  It has been quite a while since I was in this shop.  I picked up the cutest kit for a Halloween quilt/wall hanging.  I washed all the fabrics up this weekend and am excited to get it put together.

They had a really large selection of Halloween fabrics and some very cute kits ready for festive pillowcases.

Quilts, Etc.

Stopped by for a minute the other day.  It has been years since I was in this shop.  I did not buy anything but it has a really cute selection of fabrics (of course).  Anyway, 1 more off the shop hop list :)

Thimbles and Threads Quilt Shop

Well in keeping with my shop hop, Saturday my mom and I made the trek out to Thimbles and Threads in Draper.  I have not been to this shop in a long time, but somehow Jr. seemed to know exactly where they kept the candy and the trains?? (Hmm Grandma??) They are trying to clear out some fabrics (like 4 tables worth downstairs) to get ready for classes. When we were there they were down to around $2.00 per yard so if you have a project...it is worth heading out to see what you can find.

1 more off the list :)

My Peep Posse

Well I think I am finally done making enough bunnies and chicks for Easter.  The holiday is fast approaching so now I just need to fill them with candy.

Pine Needles Quilt Shop

In the spirit of actually visiting all of the quilt shops on the list, (even though I have been to a few prior), I stopped in again to Pine Needles at Gardner Village. They have a new sale a day this week so would be worth stopping by if you are out and about. I picked up a few things for my next tablerunner. They are putting out some new Spring quilts and hosting the Million Pillowcase Challenge this coming Friday, March 26th.

1 more off the list, 3 down.

Village Dry Goods - Brigham City

I hit one more shop from the list, Village Dry Goods in Brigham City. It was a very cute shop, kinda small, on the old main street of Brigham City. I went looking for the Abby Lane, The Bungalow Bag pattern that was shown on their website. Unfortunately they were out of the pattern, but I did manage to pick up some fabrics for another project on my list.

It is worth the drive to go and checkout.

Piper's Quilt Shop

Cute...Cute...Cute!!! This shop is so cute and a nice selection of material and yarn. They had some beautiful quilts displayed and kits available.

Check out their blog site for a glimse of this cute shop

New projects

Toni is coming tonight to get the bug jar quilt pattern and material. It was a miracle my mom found it as easily as she did. I finished a dress for myself....but Toni was laughing so hard when I tried it on....I don't think I will post any pictures (at least not with me in it).

I am halfway finished with lil James quite book, I am sure he will be 4 by the time I really get it completed. Both my mother and grandmother gave me new scissors for my b-day so I am sure I will be cutting out a lot of new projects soon.

Toni and I have still been getting together every (almost) Monday night to sew or just hang out if anyone is interested in joining you are more than welcome.

Monday Night Sewing

Toni and I are planning a Monday Night get together to teach her to sew. Anyone who wants to join to just hang out or do scrapbooking or whatever....let me know. We will have to post some pictures of her sewing masterpieces.
