Shop Hop day #2!

We hopped to 4 shops today :) Pretty good for not leaving the house until the afternoon! (and I made an oops and forgot the map and directions...so we had to go back for em!)

First stop in Tacoma, Washington. The outside of the building is horrible. But once inside...OH MY...they had more fabric crammed in that little store then i've ever seen in one quilt shop! There was barely enough room to walk around lol.

They didn't have many samples made up, but aren't the ruffles the cutest??!!

These are 2 of the fabrics I found there...and not at any of the other shops we've been to so far. These are sooooooooooooooo beautiful. although the pics really suck. Imported from Japan. I really have to go back for more colors...to die for fabric!

Next stop also in Tacoma, Washington

Mom ohhhing and ahhhhing over fabric hehe..and a cute runner

Still love americana :)

Apparently this shop is the only one in which I took a pic of their block...oopsie

Um I totally love this. So many dresses to choose from and they are all amazing!

Here's a sample made up....oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhh how sweet!

Okay that's it for today...only 2 days left. and I just have to make it through them without hubby killing me lol. Good thing he's in Florida :) Don't worry, I have great hiding places!

First day of Shop Hop!

Our first stop of the day! Kingston quilt shop. We are all very excited!

This is their block...my mom probably told me about 20 times today what the theme is this year, but I just can't seem to remember lol. Something or other to do with western washington hehe.

My grandma...isn't she the cutest ever?!!

Everyone wave good-bye to the Kingston ferry (which we did not get on...not today anyways lol)

Wow, I can tell that this shop was not one of my favs due to the serious lack of pictures! Onward we go!

Heirloom Quilts and Fabrics...Poulsbo, Washington

Awesome patriotic table topper. me likey :) Grandma bought a kit to make it, can't wait to see it!

Pretty pinks and browns!

BIRDIES! just one of my obsessions...so of course i love it! And even though I must have walked by it a dozen times, I missed a pic of their block. My bad.

Okay, next stop Material Girls Silverdale, Washington. For some reason I didn't get a pic outside the shop...my bad, again lol.

I love fall and fall colors...so naturally this wall quilt is awesome!

oooooo pretty!

Aren't these little guys so adorable. And bright and fun too!!


Totally in love with that quilt...and those dresses. I so wish the pattern makers wouldn't stop at size 6/8...my girl is way too tall for that and I'd love it if they went at least to 10/12!

More cuteness to love!



Seasons wall hangings...sweet!

totally love this one...I love applique and stitching on quilts!! Well darn I can't seem to find my picture of their block. Oh well, whatever you don't see here, you'll find on my moms blog http://applesquiltsandmore.blogspot.com/ :)



Rochelle's in Port Orchard, Washington (ahhh port orchard...this will always be home!)


Lookie...it's Rochelle! Her brother Rick owns Bucks A&W which is in the same plaza as her shop. I worked there when I was younger...seems so long ago lol. That is also where I met my husband!


She made her block into a super cute wall quilt :)

LOVE the colors in this one!!



Last stop of the day...Harbor Quilts. Gig Harbor, Washington. I'm going to have to make that birdie quilt in the window!

I can't tell you how much I adore those two quilts!! So cute and fun!!

Their quilt block
Oh my gosh...you just gotta love those birdies...and those colors!

And of course the americana colors that i love so much!

Well that was so much fun, but it has been a really long day! We could've rushed through and gone to more shops....but well

We wanted to shop lol
