All the way from Chicago!

Guess what happened this weekend in the Shop…

We had a lovely visit from one of our forum members.  It was so exciting to meet her and put a face to a name.  She came all the way from Chicago….

Patticakes was her name, and fabric buying was her game. (har-har, I know…I am hilarious)  Seriously though, it was a wonderful surprise and I so enjoyed visiting with her.  She brought along her boyfriend and his friend and they were especially good sports, hanging out and letting us ladies jibber-jabber!  (It is our specialty, you know.)  🙂

She picked out some pretty gorgeous fabric too I  might add.  She got her hands on the new Whimsy line (by the Fig and Tree Co.) and she also got the Eden (Lila Tueller) fabric she needed to make the new quilt Mom just finished  (I will post pics soon, I promise!) Much more too, though we promised to keep the total hush-hush.  We take care of our girls, you know.

Anyway, thanks a million for making the trip to see us, PattiCakes!   Just so you know,  she is as sweet as her name sounds.  🙂

Here’s to another great week ahead…one more day/week closer to Spring!

****By the way, the pic at the top of the post is a random image I got off google.  Wouldn’t that have been the perfect Valentines present!?!? A pink sewing machine.   Dang, I wish I was that lucky!

I hope you were.  🙂

Another Disappearing nine patch…

Okay, so the truth is out.  I LOVE the disappearing nine patch.  I have been raving about it like a crazy woman in the shop.

Seriously, is this not the BEST boy quilt you’ve seen in a while!?!?

Another thing that I just adore is when someone I have talked to about it, brings  back something she’s made and shows off her quilt top!  Those things combined equals the best.day.ever!!  😉 This amazing lady (who chose to conceal her identity 🙂 ) has already made two of these quilts.  (yes, I said two..and I think she’s planning on a few more!)  Her first was with the Soiree charm pack (Lila Tueller) and it was so darling!  Well, I just about had a fit when she brought this quilt in…..using our new Micheal Miller fabric and some bright Moda fat quarters!  I love how BOY it is….and how bright and fun it is!  Thanks Mystery Lady for stopping by to give me my very own show and tell!!
