NEW AT THE ATTIC WINDOW QUILT SHOP

Hello Quilters!  I want to show you some of the new things and new fabric in at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.  Aren't these above humming bird fabrics beautiful!!  They are from Hoffman. 

Chris tells me that these above fabrics are not new, but I love them and had to show you them.  They are also from Hoffman.

And check out this adorable quilt made from a panel!!!!  What kid wouldn't love this!!

These are also not new, but I haven't seen them before and thought you'd like them too.  Maybe you want to make some new summer Garden Dish Towels for Mom, or this practical double zip gear bag for the Graduate.

Also, check out the new calendar on the sidebar for this upcoming class in hand or machine applique.  Above, in the center, we placed the sample of the small block you will make.  As you can see, you could use this as a center on a table topper.  I love freezer paper applique as it is a nice take it with you project. But you can also use your sewing machine to applique your blocks.

After this class, you might want to look into the block of the month applique class and make this quilt.

Have you signed up for the first shop hop across the state of Michigan?  You have all of June and July to visit the over 80 stores in Michigan.  What a great sewing adventure!  Hundreds of prizes are available and you will receive a free gift at every participating store that you visit. You can purchase the above book and get your passport at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.

FOUND THE PICTURES !

I do not know about me sometimes.  Maybe I'm getting too old for all this electronic stuff?  Anyway, the other day, after my last post, I happened to look at pictures on my phone.  And there it was, this picture of the quilt Marti was binding at Happy Scrappers at the Attic Window Quilt Shop on Saturday.  I, for the life of me, do not know why I grabbed my phone instead of my camera!  I cannot believe I did that!!!  Anyway, this is the adorable quilt Marti made and Mary Gee quilted for her.  So cute!

 

I made a zillion half square triangles for a project I'm working on. 

 And I did it using Thangles.  In fact, I had Chris (shop owner) show me how to do it the correct way, which made it easier and faster and they ended up all the same. She gave a fantastic demonstration for all of us to see.  You can get Thangles in different sizes at the Attic Window Quilt Shop.

HAPPY SCRAPPERS MEET AT THE ATTIC WINDOW QUILT SHOP

 Hello Quilters!  The Happy Scrappers met this past Saturday at the Attic Window Quilt Shop. It has really been a week for me.  Did you ever  have a day when things just went wrong?  Well, this morning when trying to get the picture I took yesterday at the Shop off my camera, I discovered that apparently my camera hadn't worked, and I had no pictures!  The one I wanted was of Marti, who was sewing the binding on her lovely quilt.  I'm so sorry I didn't get to show you how darling it is. 

And I must apologize for an error I made last month.  I said the above picture was of Bev!  My mistake! It is a picture of Karen.  I'm so sorry Karen and sincerely apologize.

And, needless to say, I didn't get any other pictures that day.  There weren't many in attendance, but Karen, Lee Anne, Marti, and I enjoyed sewing and socializing.   Jane dropped in for a while, but she had just gotten back from the Paducah quilt show and was too tired to stay long.  

However, we did get to hear all about Chris's trip to her son's wedding and see the lovely pictures.  What a treat!!

This is just a reminder that the Happy Scrappers will meet this coming Saturday, April 27th, at the Attic Window Quilt Shop. Yes, it's already the last Saturday of the month!  So, come one come all.  Just bring a project you want to sew on, scrappy or not, and sew and socialize with us.  I always look forward to this fun time.  Hope to see you there!

HAPPY SCRAPPERS MEET AT ATTIC WINDOW QUILT SHOP

Hello Quilters.  I want to share the fun that the Happy Scrappers had when they met at the Attic Window Quilt Shop this past Saturday.  When looking around the shop, we found this! Can you guess what it is?  Not a bed quilt!  Notice the odd shape?  

Here, Lee Anne models this beautiful coat.   What a fun item to make.  I bet you can find the pattern at the shop!!! 

This is how it looks from the back.  I love this coat and hope to make it.  How about you?  It really looks easy!

Chris showed us this new quilt that she made.  She quilted it all herself too!  Maybe if you click on the picture you can get a better look and see her lovely quilting.

Bev shows us this cute Halloween project she is working on. 

Jill made this three-yard quilt from the book, The Magic of Three Yard Quilts!

And, I'm not sure, but I think she made this cute quilt, too.  It is called Stinky Feet!  What a cute name!

Penny was busy working on these tiny paper pieced arcs!  What patience!  This will look lovely when she gets them together.  Can't wait to see it.  So sorry I didn't get pictures of Jane, Marti, and Donna.  I admit, I was busy socializing and didn't do much quilting.

I did have a finish. Last month I used scraps and worked on this sewing machine mat.  This was fun to make and is so useful!  The pattern is at the Attic Window Quilt Shop. 

Keep an eye out for the upcoming All Michigan Shop Hop.  It is in June and July, and there are over 80 stores participating, and there will be 100s of prizes and a Free gift at every store.

ALSO:  Please come and use our classroom! Call and reserve for $5 a day.  Bring a group! It will hold up to 12 people.

NEW FABRIC AND A FUN TIME AT THE ATTIC WINDOW QUILT SHOP

I stopped in at the Attic Window Quilt Shop yesterday and had a great time.  The Thursday Bee was in session and it was so nice to see everyone again.  There was much laughter and giggling when I walked in and I had to see what they were doing.  Those girls were being soooo naughty!  I had to laugh with them.  It's a great group, and I'm sure they would welcome new participants.

On another note, the above picture is of a beautiful new table topper on display at the shop.  And it is made out of beautiful new fabric just in.

This is the pattern for the table topper.

These fabrics for the table topper are Wildflower by Hoffman.  Beautiful!!!

You will love these new books in at the Shop.  

I'm working on the March Calendar and hope to post it later today.

Be sure and stop in at the Attic Window Quilt Shop and see what is new at the shop.  It is open Monday-Friday, 10-5, and Saturday, 10-4.

THE HAPPY SCRAPPERS MEET AT THE ATTIC WINDOW QUILT SHOP

The Happy Scrappers met at the Attic Window Quilt Shop this past Saturday, and I can say, a fun time was had by all.  Maybe it is because I missed last month's meeting due to illness, but I know I really enjoyed sewing and socializing with everyone. Nothing is more fun that being at the Quilt Shop with friends.  I think there were 10 of us that day.  

Cheryl showed us her latest finish.  I think she said it was a BOM last year at the shop.  It is beautiful!!

I'm not sure because I forgot to write it down, but I think Cheryl also made this quilt.   I remember taking special notice as to how she quilted it.  What a lovely quilt.

Lee Anne made this lovely quilt.  We all decided to gather around her when the picture was taken so it could be sent to Cathy with a special hello. We wanted to tell her that we miss her and hope she gets to feeling better real soon.

I finally figured out how to get the calendar on the sidebar.  Check it out.  Now I have to figure out how to insert this little happy face.

HAPPY SCRAPPERS AND A SALE

The Happy Scrappers met at the Attic Window Quilt Shop the Saturday before the New Year.  I didn't get a chance to post, and though there were a lot of women there, I got to talking and forgot to take pictures.  However, I did get a picture of this beautiful quilt that Peggy is working on. 

This is a close up of that quilt.  It is stunning!!!!! Good job Peggy!!

This is a sample that Chris made for an upcoming class.  I can't wait to take that class as I love these trees!  More information coming.

Also, I don't have any information on it, but there is an Open House at the Attic Window Quilt Shop on Thursday from 6-9.  And there is a big SALE going on Friday and Saturday.  You don't want to miss that!!!
