My high school "chum" (a word left over from my ardent Nancy Drew reading in 5th grade) , Jean and I were exploring Sugar House and stopped in a wonderful little quilt shop called "Pipers". |
I love this quilt. I've actually made two quilts from this pattern-it was really fun. |
More from "Pipers" above and below. |
My long time friend, Susan, took me to the Deseret Book Store in Ft. Union, which has a great Quilt fabric department upstairs (See below) |
Next we went to the "Whimsy Cottage" in the Cottonwood area. This amazing floral kaleidoscope type quilt just blew me away! The colors and piece work and applique were stunning. |
More fun colors at Whimsy Cottage. We also stopped at "Elaines", but my pics from there were fuzzy. |
Ok, I TRIED to stay away from "Material Girls", but couldn't quite do it. It really is my favorite quilt shop anywhere. |
Their fabrics and patterns are so cheery and cute and retro! |
One last pic from Material Girls (above), My daughter Heidi took me to a really great quilt shop in Draper called "Thimble and Threads" (see below) |
I liked the border treatment on this quilt |
This was their "block of the month" quilt - pretty impressive! |
Love these colors, especially back lit from the window. Thanks for your patience and coming along on my "hop". | Wish you all could have been with me! |
