I don't usually write about shop hops, retreats, or general getting in the car and going with my quilting friends. However, this was such a fun trip I had to talk about it. We took off with threat of bad weather, to take Polly's sick machine to Lola Pinks Quilt shop to get it fixed. We browsed and I bought nothing, but the others bought small things.

Then we took off to J & B quit shop in Sunset. Now this shop is stuffed with fabric . It's very hard to find things in there, but I had a mission. I'm doing a swap with my group Apple Crispers' and we're doing nine patches and half square triangles. The pattern is by Lynn Roddy Brown. She used green setting triangles. I had to try this, so I'll use one or the other. We'll see. |
The best part was we ran into Joann sister in law Jean and her friends. Hugs and introduction all around. Then we meet them for lunch 11 of us in all. Really had a great time.

Next, we went to Broussard to a quilt shop called A and A Quilt Shop Such a nice shop with lots of great offerings Here, I found this Christmas fabric on sale. They had a special on end of bolt and I got it for 50% off. Yea! My intent is to make and Irish Chain lap quilt for me.
