It might be Christmas by the time I get around to posting all of the fun stuff we did in Minnesota, and about the Galena show!
Our second stop on quilty day was in Walker, MN at a shop called "Front Porch Quilts". It's hard to get past the porch - they have those baskets that I am in love with. Must. Have. Restraint.
There are all kinds of tempting things inside...
Tempting...
More tempting...
Aunt Nancy couldn't resist - she bought the Halloween kit shown above...
And look at those pretty wools! And that little basket - I can't control myself with all of this!
And look at these cute miniatures!! Oh so tempting!
I could not resist these 2 pieces of wool. The top one is for pumpkins and you know I love red - had to have it! I actually had some of the miniature patterns and a little stand in my hand - but I for once, showed restraint, and put them back!
The owner, Jana was not in the shop that day, but Merrily was working - it was nice to meet her - and she was also at the guild meeting that night. As a matter of fact, I made 2 pair of earrings for her this week! Merrily....if you are reading this...they will be in the mail on Monday!
Thanks for visiting...more to come about "quilty day" later.
Have a great day!
Looks like such a fun shop. If all you bought were the two wool pieces, you showed amazing restraint!
