This weekend is the Westcoast Quilt Shop Hop. Five of us who quilt together regularly on Tuesday nights got together, rented a van, borrowed one of the husbands to act as driver, and headed out on our journey yesterday morning.<\/p>\n

The hop lasts from Friday, June 2 to Sunday, June 3. Thanks to the organization of Dot, we managed to complete 12 of the possible 14 shops yesterday. It was a long day, but very fun! Each shop had their own block kit with a garden theme available for $5.00. This price included the pattern. At each shop, we picked up our $5.00 block, had our “passport” stamped and did a little bit of shopping.<\/p>\n

\"\"This is the 5 of us, outside the first shop at 9:30 yesterday morning. We arrived at the first shop before they opened. We are eager quilt shop hoppers!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

\"\"This was my favorite block. It is a paper pieced humming bird. The shop that had this kit was Wineberry’s (Dewberry’s to my friend, Colette). <\/p>\n

\"\"These are the treasures that I picked up at some of the shops other than the $5.00 blocks. I bought some floral fat quarters for my floral Yellow Brick Road quilt, some 1\/2 yard pieces for my chicken quilt, a floral panel that I will use to jump-start another floral quilt, a bag pattern, and a kit to make a poppy table runner. <\/p>\n

I am now off to finish the last two shops on my list. They are local and so I won’t have to travel far.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
