Day 2 Fall Shop Hop

Ah nothing like a bright and early morning start to our adventures. Leaving Jefferson at 8 am and mark your calendars ladies and gents......mom was 7 yes 7 minutes early!

First stop Brewer! A Straight Stitch. It is a small quiet little shop.

I absolutly loved the way they fold thier fat quarters. Although I wouldn't have the time or the patience to fold all my fat quarters like this. It is just a neat touch.

We all made it back into the rain to continue on our adventures.


Heading next to....

Bangor! A lot of selection here. I bought a fat quarter bundle with 4 fat quarters for only 5.99 that's a pretty good deal in the quilting community.

I like that they had the quilt on display to see what each of the 9 squares looked like.

And I just love this sign! If I EVER find this sign somewhere where I can buy it, I will!


Back in the car and off to.....

Newport! Jan is always so friendly and it is always so much fun to go in and see the different things she has put on display! Here is where I decide that some day I think I would really like to work in a quilt shop.

She gave Gram and I a demonstration on a project that Gram was working on but we were having a hard time understanding one piece of the instructions. Agian Jan is friendly and always willing to help!

Look at all those lovely ladies having a great time chatting about sewing!

And the squares all put together but in a different way!

Next.... Off to lunch!

A great recomendation from Jan. A mexican restaurant I think we all enjoyed our lunch completly.

Our driver paying close attention to the road.


Other's of us.....

Well we were having a little bit of fun!

My leaves are getting colored in and we are getting close. Only 3 more shops!



Like mother like daughter.....

Okay a little more fun!

Next.........

Madison. Always friendly always busy, always a maze!

We all hurried on in!

A different way to put the squares together. 2 squares by 4 squares as a table runner with 1 left over square as a placemat.

And last stop for the day......

Waterville!

Discount fabrics are always something good to look over.

Day 2 together 5 ladies, 5 shops and one Grand Old Time!
