Shop Hop 2008 Block

Well...here is The Quiltery's 2008 Shop Hop Block. I am looking forward to getting the other blocks made and the whole quilt put together. Not sure if I'll post it before November ...I may keep it under wraps until then.

Here is preview of the fabrics we are using for NEPA Shop Hop 2008. The Shop Hop will again be in November...hope you can join in on the fun!

It could be a while...

Well, the offers did not come rolling inn...so, no worries, I'll be around for a while. It is going to take that special person who wants a Quilt Shop and Antique Mall. Golly Gee I thought buyers would banging down the door.

Anyhow..things are slow in the shop now. Always are this time of year. The new classroom space is getting broken in. We are doing lots of cleaning and re organizing. BORING! Oh yea, I put books and patterns on sale 35% off in store only. We'll be working on new scrap bags next week and I should be dying more wool soon....ish.

Have all of you checked out my friend Maryanne's blog...it is sooooo funny! moonbeamsinajar.blogspot.com she has us on there all the time. Her family owns the Jim Thorpe Inn. Love that place. We used to quilt their on Tuesday nights. Maybe she will recap the night we went ghost hunting on the 3rd floor at 2am . This was before it was finished into suites and was only used for storage.....yea, we were screaming like little girls.

My oldest son Patrick is coming home from Colorado this Saturday, I just went to see him in Summit County over Easter, but it's still nice to have him come home. I have not broken the news to him yet, but I am going to make him spend Mother's Day with me Snow Hill, MD. He is going to have a fit and I'll most likely have to bribe him something to make it happen.

Hope all you Mothers out there have a terrific day!

For Sale

Well established Quilt Shop & Antique Mall going on the market. Yep, that's right..the Quilt Shop is for Sale! Located just 4 miles South of beautiful historic Jim Thorpe PA. I have decided it's time to let someone else run the show. Painful as it is....you all know how much I like being the boss, but the Blue Crabs of Maryland are calling my name. No, we are not moving...just want to spend more time under the Mason Dixon line. Does anyone think I might get my house clean if I sell the shop?
