sewhappy Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 We spent all day yesterday on the road to the Northern Montana quilt shops that are on the upcoming shop hop selling my pattern!! We met the nicest people!! My pattern is selling like hotcakes!! What a wonderfull feeling. I now have a NEW favorite quilt shop!! I won't say which one as all are great fun and each one is different! Now I have to plan a "teaching" trip as they all want me to teach it as well!! Took the whole family and it was such fun! Great weather also - no snow left on the ground I'd say Spring is well on the way!! Yea!! Patty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sewhappy Posted March 16, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Website?? I cannot even get my pics to post!! What part of Oregon? My folks live in Grants Pass and we visit them frequently - I never thought of teaching anywhere other than my own local shops. This has very interesting possibilities!! I think I'll really look into it!! Patty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patch Posted March 16, 2007 Report Share Posted March 16, 2007 Congratulations, Patty!! Beth and I are in the Portland, OR, area, so not close to Grants Pass, but closer than you are right now, LOL! Say, it might LOOK like spring, like it did here the other day, but our temps at night are winter temps! Can't wait to switch to my sunshiny clothes. Have LOTS of fun teaching your pattern and finding new outlets. Way to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CucumberQuilting Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 Well, In Bend, Oregon it could be one of several. I really like the shop and the gals at Sew Many Quilts. They have recently moved into a new location on Wilson Ave, I haven't been there yet but I'm sure it's wonderful. We also have The Pine Needles near downtown, BJ's Quilt Basket at the south end of town, and The Mercantile up on Newport past Greenwood Ave is my little boy's favorite ~~ they have the best toys for him to play with! We are so lucky to have all these great shops in our area. Of course there is another in Redmond, one in Madras and the biggie, The Stitchin' Post in Sisters. Shop Hop is in a few weeks. Lucky ME! And the BEST shop of all is our little Prairie Girls' Quilt Shop here in Prineville. Western to die for, and lots of friendly service. In fact, I often hear it's the friendliest place any quilter could ever visit. In 2008 they'll be moving into brand new digs just outside of town, in Powell Butte, on the road to Redmond and Bend. They're planning a fabulous space just for classes, hint, hint! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
