Lucy is getting so frustrated with me taking her photo. She really hates it. Now she's just humoring me. That's alright... I'll take it. This is Rachel's Quilt Patch and it's the cutest little shop. Their logo is a woman in a rocking chair. I had the privilege of meeting the owner. Not only does she own a quilt shop but she has authored a quilting book and a children's book.
Although I completely forgot to take a photo of the Shop Tour Quilt, I did remember to photograph the gals at the shop sporting their aprons out of the Tour fabric. The cute little gal in the center is wearing their Tour's free pattern. It's a sawtooth apron pattern.
Here is my photo of the shop. It's a really great shop. Lucy and I managed to find both scavenger clues. There was a "table set for company" in the front window and a "waltzing Mathilda" on the wire dress frame (I think it was a jacket pattern called Mathilda that they claimed was dancing... which might very well happen when everyone goes home).
Lucy is digging through the 30's fabrics here looking for the best bargain.
Here are the purchases from this shop. I bought some more pinks and browns, a little red, and a special Fall stripe that will be a surprise for the Fat Quarter Friends group that I dine with. Being a pattern designer myself, I don't usually buy patterns from other deisgners. But sometimes you just want to have something easy and cute. This was a great apron pattern. It had several different designs in it (we bought it for the four corners pattern which we like the best). This pattern got two thumbs up from Lucy and Phyllis.
The "free gift" bags at this store were all different. Lucy got a pattern and fabric piece I think. I got a FQ and two 15% off coupons. There is only one pictured here because I used one at the store. It was great.
The Grand Total at this shop: $49.69. I think it was my Fat Quarter Friends fabric that put me over. MUST SLOW DOWN.... MIGHT GO BROKE! Off across the mountain to the little, BIG town of Charlottesville. Stay tuned...
