Quilters Shop Hop

Our Quilters Shop Hop has come to an end for another year and the turnout was terrific. After having such a bad winter I was pleasantly surprised to see everyone out taking advantage of all the specials in the local shops. I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say that we are all delighted.
I am excited to announce that Bev Box of Trenton, has won our gift basket. Bev is a long time customer here at the shop and I know she will put all the items to use that are in our basket.
I am still waiting patiently for some beautiful spring fabrics and when they arrive I will share a picture with you here on the blog.
I've been busy dyeing up a storm for my rug hookers and have just purchased a new book for the shop from Gretchen Gibbons . It's for wool applique and you can use all that wool for both hooking and quilting. I'm having alot of fun dyeing colours for both.
We had a nice turnout today for knitting but still have some of our ladies in the south enjoying the warmer weather. We all look forward to seeing you back in the Canadian North soon and bring some of that lovely sunshine with you.
We have new yarns and fabrics for spring arriving daily so don't forget to drop by and check out the new offerings.
