WOO HOO- kits! Thank you Laurie from Stitcharie for such a generous donation to sponsor our retreat door prizes! Two lucky retreat guest will win one of these modern lap quilts at our Saturday night prize event. One kit pattern is a large sized plus pattern and the other is a triangle design. And just look at the unique packaging in the cake dome. If you are on a quilting road trip, make sure to stop in at Stitcharie and have a look at their lovely store and say HI to Laurie, who has an infectious laugh and is so enthusiastic about quilting. The fabric selection features both modern lines as well as traditional fabric, so there is something for everyone. I bought some fabric to make a Christmas quilt- because there isn't already enough on my to do list-LOL Here is a link to the shop > STITCHARIE Thanks again Laurie and everyone at Stitcharie for supporting our retreat!

Aren't quilting friends just the greatest? I was in Vancouver this past week and Krista from the Vancouver MQG suggested we do a road trip to the North Shore quilt shop called Stitch and Bobbin. I was excited to catch up with Krista, chat about quilting and of course for sightseeing and shopping! And I got to ride the SeaBus! Krista picked me up at the ferry terminal and we went to Deep Cove for coffee, hot chocolate and donuts, as well as some gift store shopping and also to look out over the cove. I think the whole province of BC must be stunning! After this adorable little town, we spent some time and $$ at Stitch and Bobbin which is a really cute store. Krista was also so thoughtful and gave our retreat a prize which includes her pattern Round Peg, Square Hole, as well as the necessary fabrics. If you are looking for more information about Krista and her patterns, or even to book her as a teacher, here is her blog. POPPYPRINTCREATES It was a lovely morning and a fun trip to go see a new part of our great country! Here is a view of the city of Vancouver from the North Shore. Thanks again Krista for being my tour guide as well as sponsoring our retreat! See you again next year!
