Be sure to go to Quilted Straight in Port Gamle and to the Kingston Quilt Shop in Kingston. You could easily make a very nice day trip visiting those two and their surroundings. Also, a day in Poulsbo would be a treat. And it's only about a 45 minute drive from Bremerton to Tacoma where there are 7 or 8 quilt shops. If you like classes, you might go online and check for some at the nearby shops on the dates you will be here. And PM me if you want, we could meet up. Lots of others from the Bremerton area on this list, too. |
OHHH! I will be doing this in August once I found out my husband was not able to go on our vacation I looked up how many quilt shops where in northern Washington and in 15 miles from where we are stay there are over 20 shops!! I cannot wait to go through the washington list so I can see the ones around me! Thank you!

Hmmmm....good to know! DS and (almost) DIL are moving to Auburn after their wedding. It's not that far from here. Hope they have a guest room!

I've been collecting orange fabric for a quilt for my son. Here's what I have: I'm planning to try a shop hop the last of September, South Eastern states. Don't know how far from home I'm going to venture, my 15 year old daughter and I are just going on a road trip and see what happens. |
Wow, bet your charge card is smoking after all that!
We have seven quilt shops within a half hour of my house and that is more than I can handle, or should I say the budget can handle. |
Oh my those are some stunning fabrics, I love em!
There must be some serious quilters in your area to support 19 quilt shops. I was going to say that I am green with envy (I am over your orange fabrics tho) but decided it is best that I have no LQS near me, it saves me lots of money. OK there is a Joanns but that isn't the same as a 'quilt shop', the choices are too limited. warm quilt hugs, sue in CA |
