Summer Adventure - Wrap Up
We've been back home for a few days and I must say, it seems to take longer to get back into the groove of things each time I'm away. Granted we came home a bit early as my sister was visiting from out of town and then I had to drive back up to Edmonton to pick the ladies up from their spa retreat!
Central Sewing Machines does an amazing job and Amy (Handi Quilter Amara) is already purring!
I wanted to recap the quilt shops I visited. I did my bit for the local economies. Each store had something a bit different.
On our usual trips to the west coast, we would drive straight through from Calgary to Vancouver. This time we were towing a trailer and we knew we needed to stop somewhere as we couldn't drive straight through AND catch a ferry to Vancouver Island in one go. We didn't plan to travel (and camp) from quilt shop to quilt shop, but it seems that we did just that!
Heather's Fabric Shelf in Kamloops
Cozy Cotton Quilting in Chilliwack
Chitter Chatter Fabrics in Abbotsford
Sweet Pea Quilting in Parksville
Troll Brothers Quilting in Shawnigan Lake Road
Thread and Paper in Salmon Arm
I would highly recommend dropping by these stores. Each had their own focus on fabrics, manufacturers, patterns and notions.
Now I need to focus on using up some of what I purchased! Look out Class Samples, Here I come!!!!!
Happy Quilting!
