    Up North on the left Odessa Quilts on the right. We had a blast. I bought two bags of scraps and sorted them last night Wow such pretty fabrics and not what I called scraps!! most are almost a 1/4 yard some are smaller. And my 1 3/4 quarter yard of Wizard of OZ is SO pretty!!! Plus I got some 30's repos for a block I am swapping!!

We plan to wear them as lapel pins, with little erasers to keep the points from poking.

    If anyone is looking for a terrific gift for that quilter or sewing friend in your life, please order several of Up North's adorable little pins. They are the perfect size to tuck into a pincushion that you might take to a class ... everyone will know which one is yours because of the specialty pin(s) you've got in it. These would be a terrific addition to any quilter's Christmas stocking!

    Up North, I had a really GREAT time with you, I'm so sorry I was running behind :roll: . Next time we'll make a day of it ... perhaps we should select another quilt shop we want to visit???

    NOTE: here is a link for photos of some of Up North's pins. They really are amazing!

    LindaR, if we knew you were close by, we'd have asked you to come along and make it a real party!
