NEW AT THE ATTIC WINDOW QUILT SHOP

Hello Quilters!  I want to show you some of the new things and new fabric in at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  Aren't these above humming bird fabrics beautiful!!  They are from Hoffman. 

Chris tells me that these above fabrics are not new, but I love them and had to show you them.  They are also from Hoffman.

And check out this adorable quilt made from a panel!!!!  What kid wouldn't love this!!

These are also not new, but I haven't seen them before and thought you'd like them too.  Maybe you want to make some new summer Garden Dish Towels for Mom, or this practical double zip gear bag for the Graduate.

Also, check out the new calendar on the sidebar for this upcoming class in hand or machine applique.  Above, in the center, we placed the sample of the small block you will make.  As you can see, you could use this as a center on a table topper.  I love freezer paper applique as it is a nice take it with you project. But you can also use your sewing machine to applique your blocks.

After this class, you might want to look into the block of the month applique class and make this quilt.

FOUND THE PICTURES !

I do not know about me sometimes.  Maybe I'm getting too old for all this electronic stuff?  Anyway, the other day, after my last post, I happened to look at pictures on my phone.  And there it was, this picture of the quilt Marti was binding at Happy Scrappers at the Attic Window Quilt Shop on Saturday.  I, for the life of me, do not know why I grabbed my phone instead of my camera!  I cannot believe I did that!!!  Anyway, this is the adorable quilt Marti made and Mary Gee quilted for her.  So cute!

 

I made a zillion half square triangles for a project I'm working on. 

 And I did it using Thangles.  In fact, I had Chris (shop owner) show me how to do it the correct way, which made it easier and faster and they ended up all the same. She gave a fantastic demonstration for all of us to see.  You can get Thangles in different sizes at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.

HAPPY SCRAPPERS MEET AT THE ATTIC WINDOW QUILT SHOP

 Hello Quilters!  The Happy Scrappers met this past Saturday at the Attic Window Quilt Shop. It has really been a week for me.  Did you ever  have a day when things just went wrong?  Well, this morning when trying to get the picture I took yesterday at the Shop off my camera, I discovered that apparently my camera hadn't worked, and I had no pictures!  The one I wanted was of Marti, who was sewing the binding on her lovely quilt.  I'm so sorry I didn't get to show you how darling it is. 

And I must apologize for an error I made last month.  I said the above picture was of Bev!  My mistake! It is a picture of Karen.  I'm so sorry Karen and sincerely apologize.

And, needless to say, I didn't get any other pictures that day.  There weren't many in attendance, but Karen, Lee Anne, Marti, and I enjoyed sewing and socializing.   Jane dropped in for a while, but she had just gotten back from the Paducah quilt show and was too tired to stay long.  

However, we did get to hear all about Chris's trip to her son's wedding and see the lovely pictures.  What a treat!!
