Quilt Sign for Bakery
 
2 Attachment(s)
My brother, sil and their children own a wholesale bakery and just moved into a new location with retail space. They are doing great. They are located in Punta Gorda, FL. I will stipple the outer border and then send it off to the post office. Hopefully, they have a wall large enough to display.

That's a custom-made (with love) advertising sign if I've ever seen one! Beautiful and eye-catching!

They will love it. Beautiful!

What a warm, home touch for a bakery! They will love it!

Thanks for your comments. I posted it on FB and my niece went crazy. Can't wait to get it. Each letter has been blanket stitched and the background fabric are all neutral strips. The border fabric has pieces of cake.

How special you are to make this for them. It will surely be treasured.

Wonderful sign that will brighten a wall in the shop!

Marcia_PA 06-16-2013 05:06 AM

That's a great idea! Nicely done, too. We have a winter home not far from PG, so I plan to look them up when we go down in the fall. I love bakeries! :)

How fitting!! You did a great job. They will be proud to hang it in their new business.

Where are they located in Punta Gorda as I live just north of their and would love to find a good bakery, (and see your quilted sign in person) really miss going to the bakeries in Fall River, Ma when we lived up there.

great idea and touch for their new location

Mariposa 06-17-2013 07:11 AM

Very cool sign!!

How wonderful to have a quilted sign for their shop. So in keeping with the theme of the shop.

MargeD 06-17-2013 09:57 AM

What a great gift.

That is the neatest sign I have seen, you put a lot of thought into this one and it shows. I made a wall hanging for friend who owns "Crab Shack" over on the gulf. Believe one of the hurricanes took it out to sea. Keep working on them.

Camille 06-17-2013 11:21 AM

Here is the address of the bakery:
Nino's Italian Bakery
3151 Cooper St.
Suite 52
Punta Gorda, FL

They also have a hot bar. Most of the recipes are my Mom & Dad's. They owned 2 Italian restaurants that we grew up in. If you visit them, tell them you are from the quilting site. Hopefully, you'll get a cookie.
I hope to make it down there one day.

No Morningstar, my brother only owns this one bakery. Originally from NY where we were born and raised. He then migrated south first to NC and then FLA. He bought this bakery and kept the name of the original owner. Initially, they were a wholesale baker and now he expanded into a new location and added the retail portion of the business.
