Shop Hop Fun

I had a wonderful time with my friend on the shop hop.  We had perfect weather and saw beautiful vistas as we traversed the Laurel Highlands with trees in their autumn colors.  It was a 2’ish hour drive to get to the first shop but it didn’t seem long as we talked the whole way. Of the 9 shops, we visited 5 and were still gone from 9am-7pm!  The shops gave free patterns for their shop hop quilts (kits were available) and a goodie bag along with water and snacks.  Here’s the free items I received (minus a red star FQ that didn’t make it into the picture).


I was a good girl and only bought 11 1/4 yards of fabric….two of those yards are Tilda’s 🥰🥰 so 13 1/4 yds added to stash.  I was focusing on picking up reds to use in a DGD quilt……red is her favorite color and my red stash is smaller than all the other colors.  I did pretty well on that front (there’s that free red star fabric).


I was looking for oil with a long spout for my longarm ✅ and some sharps for hand sewing ✅

A fabulous day all around, thanks for driving Linda!
