HAPPY SCRAPPERS MEET AT ATTIC WINDOW QUILT SHOP

Hello Quilters!  I hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day Holiday.  Before I show you pictures that I took at Happy Scrappers this past Saturday, I want to show you a few things I saw at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  Above is this adorable display with this cute pumpkin.  Time to start thinking about those Halloween projects.  

Speaking of Halloween, there is a new BOM starting at the shop.  

You will be making a block each month.  You have to choose which color way you want.  You can see Chris (picture above the pattern) holding up the two different blocks.  You just need to choose which color way you want.  Call the shop to sign up and/or get more details

Now for the Happy Scrappers!  Looks like Pat was having a good time!
Janalee was at the cutting table working on a panel.
 
 We were so happy to see Carol H. join today!!! 
 
            I love this beautiful block that Nancy was working on.
Lee Anne was busy working on a project.
                               Jane shows us her pretty blocks!

                      And Val was working on hand sewing that day. 

Mary Gee said she was sorry she couldn't make it that day, but did send me this photo of the project she's working on.  How pretty!  

 As for me, I don't think I did any sewing, but had a wonderful day visiting with all my quilting friends and taking pictures of all the new items in at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  I hope to see everyone the last Saturday of September.  Mean while: 

The Attic Window Quilt Shop.  It is open Monday-Friday, 10-5, and Saturday, 10-4.

HAPPY SCRAPPERS MEET AT THE ATTIC WINDOW QUILT SHOP

Hello quilters!  Not sure where the above picture came from, but I love the quilting on this table runner. It made me think of all the beautiful quits that I saw this past week at the AQS Quilt Show in downtown Grand Rapids.  Did you go?  If so, I want to hear all about it, and hope you will share with us this coming Saturday when the Happy Scrappers meet at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  Hope to see you there!

Happy Scrappers Meet At The Attic Window Quilt Shop

 

Hello from the Happy Scrappers at the Attic Window Quilt Shop!  Above, Nancy shows us this beautiful quilt that she is making.  She is using English Paper Piecing for these tiny little flowers.  She said she doesn't know how large it will be.

This is a closer look at her project.  I am eager to see what she does with it.  What a great way to use up your scraps and make something beautifull! 
 

It was a wonderful day Saturday.  So many people showed up and we had a great time sewing and socializing.  Above, JaneLee (left) and Val pose for me.

Jane was there and busy sewing up a storm.
Cathy was busy too. 
Sonnie smiled as she worked on the nice long table that the Attic Window Quilt Shop provides for us.
Nancy was also working on another quilt.  I think she is copying some words that she can embroidery.
Lee Ann didn't get much sewing done that day as she was busy taking care of people coming in to the Attic Window Quilt Shop for the All Michigan Shop Hop.
Pat was busy sewing.  And I am sorry that I did not get a picture of Donna M. before she had to leave. 

This is just a picture of us working that day. There were 10 who attended.  It was an awsome day.  We meet on the last Saturday of the month.  Mark your calendar now and feel free to join us for sewing, eating (Jane always brings goodies) and gabbing.  It really is a fun, relaxing day!!

The Attic Window Quilt Shop.  It is open Monday-Friday, 10-5, and Saturday, 10-4.

BTW, this shop is a place where you can hold a meeting.  For instance, maybe you crochet and want a place for you and others crocheters to meet, or want to meet to discuss your sewing project.  These are just suggestions.  Anyway, feel free to call the Attic Window and book a day and time for your meeting.
