I am going to begin tonight by answering a question from Quilting Fiesta. She wanted to know about the Pumpkin tablerunner and I wanted to share the information with everyone. I did all of the hand work on the quilt but I did not design it, that was done by a wonderful quilter and pattern creator by the name of Susan Varenka. She often gives classes at a local quilt shop and you can view and purchase her patterns at http://www.susansquiltcreations.com/.
A couple of items from the eight shops we visited yesterday. Click on the pictures to enlarge.
This pattern is for my embroidery machine.
These kits/patterns are so unique. I purchased them at Quilting By the Yard. They are quilts made on cardboard tubes, yes I did say on like a sleeve--love them!
Great leather buttons purchased at Coastal Sewing Machines:
Last for tonight, but certainly not least, the tote bag my friend Pam made for me to carry all of my purchases during the hop--isn't it gorgeous! She also embroiders and put our name on each of our bags! Thank you again Pam!
