Support your LQS Day!
Today is international "Support Your Local Quilt Shop Day". I did my part, at Mrs Pugsley's Emporium.
She's open till 1 today, so you still have time! :)
I did my part! Bought two yards each of ten different fabrics from a quilt store local to me! Having always been a scrap quilter, I'm tired of not having a 'stash' to pull from. My daughter helped me, thank goodness, or I would have given up and walked out three times! I find it difficult to just buy random fabric, with no project in mind. XO
I'm a quilt and pattern designer, award winning quilt maker, author and teacher. Since 1989, I have published well over 600 quilting patterns in magazines such as McCall's Quilting, Quilter's Newsletter, Quilt World, The Canadian Quilter and Quilter's Connection. I have contributed designs to 16 different books and co-authored Canadian Heritage Quilting with Diane Shink. My latest book, Quilting Beauties Come In All Shapes and Sizes, was published by AQS in 2015. Since 2018, I have been an Island Batik Ambassador. I am a dealer for Aurifil thread, and enjoy teaching workshops as time permits.
Gee, I didn't know that......and I have missed it! Today is Sunday and my favourite shop is closed!
