Hi Melissa! Hope you are getting a lot done. I was wondering where you were.

Hey Amma, Hey Dawn, Hey Loretta!!!!http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/smiley-greet013.gif

The last quilt I finshed is called "All Flakes Welcome" It is so cute!!!!! I didnt get any pictures because I finished it the afternoon before the Grand Opening for the quilt shop and it went straight up on the wall! But here is a link to the pattern

Some friends of mine, a mother and daughter, opened a shop here in our little town, and they recruited me! It is sooo much fun to play in bolt after bolt of fabric all the time!!!!! :-D I really get my fabric fondling fix taken care of!!!!!! :lol: :lol:

Hey bebe!!!

So nice to hear from you Melissa! Was wondering about you. That would be a ton of fun selecting fabrics and making cool stuff for the shop. That's a cute snowman quilt!

mgshaw 12-02-2009 08:17 PM

Hi Jan!
What is almost as fun as picking fabrics for stuff we make for the shop, is picking out fabrics for customers. I have been amazed at how many want the fabrics picked out for them! :D

Janstar 12-02-2009 08:27 PM

I would love for someone to select fabric for me! Can't imagine what anything will look like. If I see what I like then I'll go ahead and make it but can't imagine it. Glad you're having fun!!

Harmony 12-02-2009 08:38 PM

If I were opening a quilt store, I'd sure want you on board! You could be the Civil War fabrics expert. I'm not surprised that customers like the fabrics you choose--you're awesome at putting together great fabrics. I don't see you you can be anything but a huge success!

mgshaw 12-02-2009 08:48 PM

Hey Harmony!!!!!

When they first opened up, they didnt even have a scrap of CW fabric, said they didnt really care for them :shock: ! So I took some of my quilts to show them. Guess what? The shop now carries CW fabric :lol: :lol: More CW converts :thumbup: :lol:

Mousie 12-02-2009 09:01 PM

Hey Melissa!
so good to hear from you, and how exciting that you are working in a fabric shop!
Is that a quilters dream if they have to work, or what?
And you get to show off your talents.
Them's some smart friends you have.
Wow, I hope they are able to get a website. I guess you have told them they'd have plenty of customers right here on this board!
We need to see more gb pics as hubby just called ours! Can you tell he has been reading the board lately?
hugs, don't rub the prints off them bolts. :lol:
