I buy online from the cheaper stores, shop JoAnns with coupons, buy shirts from thrift stores and gratefully accept scrap donations from friends. I sure wish I could afford to buy even one yard and I sure used to support local quilt stores with my hard earned dollars, but I simply cannot believe the price inflation that's happened. Your encouragement to support them is a kind thing but I need to state that there is another reality some of us have to accept. I hope your LQS is appropriately grateful for your kind support.Stoneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00455829185703356804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-73683562936322268472020-01-25T13:05:56.691-05:002020-01-25T13:05:56.691-05:00The Wise Owl gets Squared Away.

My owl is staying in the TT quilt along with the tiny Storm at Sea because, 1: they are really cute, and 2: they took forever to make. I'm fortunate to have 5 really good LQS within a 40 minute drive. A 6th is closing this month because the owner is retiring and the shop is attached to her home, so new ownership is not possible.<br />Pat<br />MissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-41868461108977337552020-01-25T11:52:49.511-05:002020-01-25T11:52:49.511-05:00Yes lets support our local quilt shops, Ultimate ...Yes lets support our local quilt shops, Ultimate quilt shop in Oshawa and Quilters Cupboard in Uxbridge are @ of my favouritesjrquiltshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08115794520776631397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-65121387706265994132020-01-25T11:49:42.092-05:002020-01-25T11:49:42.092-05:00The layout you have chosen looks great.

I enjoy finding surprises in quilts and the owl is a wonderful surprise.<br /><br />We have lost a lot of quilt shops here but a manufacturer opened a store not far from me so there are now 3 within a 12 minute drive. I also make a trip of it and visit the 2 stores about 75 minutes from me several times a year. I combine that with a walk at the heron reserve or a visit to the tulip festival or just lunch out with a friend, and a visit to the yarn store. I guess I am lucky and hope it stays that way.works4mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18354741604515547179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-83135509172242995512020-01-25T11:32:02.192-05:002020-01-25T11:32:02.192-05:00Little Owl is perfect for this quilt, so good to h...Little Owl is perfect for this quilt, so good to hear he gets to stay!Quilting Babciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16225825007525655805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-83629900873208501282020-01-25T11:28:00.822-05:002020-01-25T11:28:00.822-05:00Local Quilt Shop Day is a new one to me, but I'...Local Quilt Shop Day is a new one to me, but I'll mention mine - Beginnings Quilt Shop in Hendersonville, NC.
