Yesterday was the perfect start to summer vacation.... a quilt shop hop with my mom and sister! I can't think of a better way to start out my summer than to spend the day with two of my favorite people. Throw in chocolate, a couple quilt swag bags and a nice man to do all the driving and it was perfection! I will even forgive mother nature for all of the rain. At least I didn't have a bit of guilt ignoring my gardens or home for the day. It was a perfect day for shop hopping. Let me share my pictures with you! (I have a ton of pictures so I'll have to break it down to a few postings....)

Here's my few from where I sat on the bus, I love when a man does all the driving! |
 |
And this fellow brought us all to his home for breakfast! His wife was such a gracious host! |
 |
Back on the bus, it's time to hit the first shop! |
 |
I'd Rather Bee Quilting in Lake City Minnesota. The window displays were wonderful! |
 |
Loved the quilts that were on display in the windows! |
 |
This masterpiece was on the wall.... so beautiful. |
 |
Aren't these beautiful! |
 |
I found the most adorable little baby bootie pattern, along with the fabric for the soles. I also found a fat quarter I couldn't resist! |
 |
Thank you! I'd Rather Bee Quilting for the sway bag! What a wonderful surprise! |
If you have a chance.... stop on by
I'd Rather Bee Quilting in Lake City Minnesota. I hope that you enjoy my first set of pictures from Shop Hop... I have tons more to share! I'm off to do some more fabric shopping, fabric for my dining room valance and chairs... have a great day!!!
Happy quilting,
Looks like a fun day for you!
ReplyDeleteSo Jealous of a bus to do a shop hop. We always have to drive and sometimes we take the scenic view when we miss turns or exits. Glad you enjoyed your day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect day of visiting with your family, AND shopping in quilt shops! FUN!
ReplyDeleteI am so jealous. It's been a few years since I was on one with my friends. It was probably one of the most fun things we ever did. Here in Colorado, we seldom get quilt shop bus trips. :-(
ReplyDeleteWish I was with you !
