SWEET Celebration!

We celebrated our Top Ten feature in Quilt Sampler magazine last Saturday with a BIG party! I took a ton of photos, but somewhere in all the excitement I misplaced my camera! I’ve searched all week with no luck, so it must be gone for good! I did take a few photos with my cell phone so those are all I have to share with you… Sad smile

I decided at the last minute that we needed a banner…so we scrambled for two days to put this together, but it turned out cute! I like it so much I’ve left it hanging!

IMG_3834Sweet treats for our sweet friends! And the specially labeled water bottles and Hershey’s candy favors were a big hit although I’m not sure Jeanne would agree since she’s the one who had to put all those labels on!

Jeanne treated us to homemade Cake Pops!

IMG_3836Fat quarter “hard candies” for everyone! All they had to do was give us an autograph for the commemorative autograph quilt I’m designing! And on the wall is the Scrappy Blue and Cream version of our Quilt Sampler quilt project, “Eye Candy.”

IMG_3848We collected nearly a hundred signatures! Guess I’d better get busy designing that quilt!

Spin the wheel and win a prize! Many thanks to our generous suppliers who showered us with fun prizes to give away!

Our Quilt Sampler project, “Eye Candy,” in the published Double-Pink and White combo. (We have kits available for both versions.)

If you missed the party, you missed a great time! It was a fun, fun day full of laughter and warm memories. We are so blessed to have such good friends and customers who have supported us all these years, and to be able to share the monumental honor of being selected as a Quilt Sampler Top Shop…it means the world to us!

    Looks like a great party! I was there a day early on my way to Aiken, SC for a class with the Carolina Pine Quilters. Sorry I missed you. I understand you were eating lunch with your grandson for Grandparent’s Day.

    Congratulations!!!! I planned to attend your celebration. A water leak in one of our bathrooms called for a change of plans. So happy to see your shop in Quilt Sampler!!!
