    Default My own personal "shop hop"

    I just returned from a week long visit to NYS and PA to see my parents and other family. While there, I visited 9 quilt shops, my parents accompanied me to 8 of them. Dad was so thrilled! They were all great shops and had different inventory. And yes, I did leave with a shopping bag from each store. But Mom, who is not a quilter, spent more than I did at two of the stores. I told her if she bought the fabric and pattern, I would make stuff for her. Now I have several table runners to make one of these days!

    These are the shops I visited:
    Enchanted Mountain--Olean NY
    Mt Pleasant Quilting Co--York NY
    Journey Quilt Co--Nunda NY
    Carriage House Quilts--Naples NY
    Material Rewards--Dansville NY
    The Witches Stitches--Big Flats NY
    Calico Patch--North East PA
    Millcreek Sewing & Fabric--Erie PA
    Kelly's Sewing Corner--Erie PA

    Next year, I'll see what other shops I can add to my list!

    Sounds like a fun visit. Anxious to see what creations you have with the fabrics.

    Sounds like you had a great time. It is always fun to see all the different shops and what different fabrics they carry. The last time I went on a personal shop hop I ended up with 12 more projects! So far I have two of them.
