| Fabric choices for my latest baby quilt. Most came from my stash! |
I am in desperate need of a creative jolt. As such, I am looking forward to the September Connecticut Quilt Shop Hop.
Do I NEED more fabric? Of course, not!
Do I NEED more projects? Of course, not!
Do I NEED to travel hither and yon checking out yet undiscovered quilt shops? Of course, . . . I DO, I DO, I DO!
A Quilt Shop Hop is so much more than buying fabric and oohing and ahhhing over new fabrics and fabric collections and quilt projects. It’s about traveling with friends, and making new friends, and bouncing ideas around.
It’s a creative jolt! It’s seeing your stash as the backbone of a new project or a twist* on an old one. It’s finding just the right bit of fabric to make that UFO come alive, and out of the sewing basket.
So check out the links to the 16 stores below. They are participating in the September 8th to 18th Connecticut Quilt Shop Hop. You can register now.
Sixteen stores will participate: Close to Home stores in Glastonbury, Orange, and Southington, Colchester Mill Fabrics (Colchester), Dot’s Quilt Shop (Prospect), Fabric Tree (Danbury), Lisa’s Clover Hill Quilts (Berlin), Quilter’s Corner (New Milford), Quilter’s Cove (Durham), Quilter’s Dream (Willimantic), Quilting by the Yard (Vernon), Sew Inspired Quilt Shop (Simsbury), the Fabric Bug (Thomaston), the Quilter’s Alley (Ridgefield), the Yankee Quilter (Oxford) and Yankee Cloth (Wallingford). Click on each name for more information about the shop.
*Speaking of twists, I am working on a little table runner made with my new Twister ruler. I will post my product review in a few days. This little ruler has made a difficult block so easy to make.
Check back soon.
