A BEAUTIFUL FINISH AND SOME NEW SAMPLES

I may not have been able to go on the Attic Window Quilt Shop Heart Of Winter Bus Tour, but I did get to see this beautiful quilt.  Sue Chambers sent me this picture of her latest finish.  This is what she said about it, "The pattern is called Bird Walk by Material Girlfriends.  I bought it as a kit and made it just because I liked it."  I like it too.  I'm especially fond of that block in the upper right hand corner of the tree branches with the birds.  Adorable!  Thanks Sue for sharing with us!

 Remember, I promised more pictures of the placemats and tablerunners that you will be making in Vickie S.'s class.  Here are three samples.

They are all lovely and I bet fun to make.  Vickie's Bargello Placemat class is Friday,  Feb. 22.  Be sure and call the shop to register and get the supply list.

ATTENTION:  Have you ever fantasized of having time to sew all day, just sew.  You can do that, not for just one day but three!  Check out the February calendar on the sidebar.  Join the Sew Bluesy Weekend at the Attic Window Quilt Shop at the end of the month and you can sew on February 28 and 29,  from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. two days in a row and from 9 to 5 on Sunday.  What a wonderful way to get rid of those February blues!  Reserve your space now by calling the Attic Window Quilt Shop!

I was hoping to get pictures of the Heart of Winter Tour Bus Trip that was held this past Saturday, but the only ones I got were from Misti.  Above, is the picture she sent me of Chris at the Attic Window Quilt Shop busy with the first bus load of happy guests.  
I was so sad that I was unable to make the trip this year as I had previous family commitments, and family comes first.  Above, is another picture Misti sent.  She said Holland was really snowy.
Misti was on the bus from Newaygo and sent this picture.  From what I hear everyone had a wonderful time.  So sorry I missed it this year.  Thank you Misti for sending the pictures. You're the best!
ATTENTION:  A new class has been added to the Calendar.  On Saturday, Feb. 22, Vickie S. will be showing you how to make Bargello Placemats and Tablerunners.  You don't want to miss this. Above is just one of the beautiful placemats that Vicki made.  More pictures to come.

A NEW QUILT AND A NEW CLASS ADDED



I haven't been able to get to the Attic Window Quilt Shop this week, but a loyal customer sent me this picture.  When I asked Misti if this was a panel, she said, "No, not a panel."  When I asked more about this adorable quilt, this is what she said.

"I was doing some cleaning at home and found these cross stitches in a box.  I made them when I was a teenager and thought they were long gone.  I was amazed and excited when I saw them, so decided to make them into a baby quilt for my someday grandbaby.  I'm putting the binding on now and then I'll be done."

This quilt is adorable.  I didn't realize that the individual blocks were cross stitched.  Thanks Misti for sending us this lovely quilt and for inspiring us.  Look what you can do with orphan blocks!

ATTENTION:  A new class has been added to the Calendar.  On Saturday, Feb. 22, Vickie S. will be showing you how to make Bargello Placemats.  You don't want to miss this.  I looked through my pictures but couldn't find a picture of these stunning placemats.  I'll get to the shop soon and get you a picture.  In the meantime, call the shop to reserve your space and get a supply list.
