just Shopping
Yep, just shopping... just shopping at Whipstitch! My home away from home in Atlanta.
The only time we left home over the sewing weekend was to journey in town to the Whipstitch store to peruse the fabricy goodness therein. And, there is a bit more fabricy goodness at the physical store than living on the virtual Etsy shelves, which makes a visit there all the more fun.
Come along with me?
There are Monsterz at the door!
And some pretty cool quilts on the walls...
And, if Deborah's there you can spot her friendly smile or silly banter from a mile away (if you have x-ray vision).
Most everyone was pulling from Ellen Lucket Baker's Quilt Blocks. I did!
The wall of hoops is guaranteed to make you smile.
These Ric Rac Rabbits informed me that a quilt is in my future.
I think these bolts were in my hands within seconds of entering the door? No joke.
So, here's what a brought home, one way or another.
Summersville Brush Strokes - the scale is perfection, Flying Stripe, Jewels and Alexander Henry's new La Paloma. After cutting so many neutrals for the Simply Stacked coin quilts, these seemed warranted.
More Summersville, some of which is already in quilt form and Half Moon and typewriters from miss Melody Miller!
And then, just for fun... more Quilt Blocks. Bright lemon yellow Static from Monsterz and Zakka Style by Rashida Coleman-Hale.
Yep, quite the loot. New fabric is always inspiring. Now, I'm really done writing about it and desperate to start sewing. Like, I need to do it NOW. I'll work on some things and show you a project tomorrow, fingers crossed!
