New York City

Yesterday, Veterns Day my daughter Kate & I took the day off to see alittle of NYC! It was a beautiful day! No luck with show tickets at the TKTS Booth, the line was way tooooo long. So we just walked & shopped. Made stops in Soho - can never resist visiting Purl Soho, onto St. Patricks Cathedral, the new Disney Store, Anthropology & ofcourse Macy's! It was a great day!

International Quilt Market Day #3

Today the market floor opened its doors! Wow, miles & miles of vendors or so it seems. Our first priority was to visit Quiltwoman.com & check out Karen's book, Soldiers Pride it's hot off the press! We have just finished up Soldiers Pride as a Block of the Month program at the shop & now it the pattern is available to the entire quilting world!

The rest of the day was what I call

" window shopping". Checking out all the new & wonderful things & deciding what to purchase for the shop. For tomorrow is buying day!

Goosefeathers Tree

Have had this pattern sitting around for years & when Deb Tucker came out with her new Flying geese ruler called the Wing Clipper I thought it would be a great way to try it out. And wow! I love it..... perfect flying geese everytime.

I used Moda's Fruitcake Holiday line to make up my sample and Delia did her magic with her machine quilting. We gave the pattern for this out during our Christmas in July Open House, so if you missed out we'll have a kits available at the shop soon. Wing Clipper is also available at the shop!
