After visiting New York where I visited a couple of quilt shops, I decided I needed to come home and visit my local quilt shop. Thimble Pleasures is my local quilt shop, it is in Chapel Hill North Carolina. It has an amazing selection, that I feel was better than the New York stores.
I was not looking for anything in particular but I did I pick up some fun prints:
1) Prosperity Hens (Yellow) – Locally Grown by Marissa and Creative Thursday, Andover Fabrics
2) Sheep Parade – Locally Grown by Marissa and Creative Thursday, Andover Fabrics
3) Little Apples White Clothes by Aneela Hoey
4) Posy, Story by Aneela Hoey for Moda
And some more graphic/color based prints:
1) Parsons Gray, Seven Wonders, Clouds
2) Bloom Modern by Jason Yenter from In The Beginning Fabrics
3) Sketch, Crosshatch in Turquoise by Timeless Treasures Fabrics
4) Madrona Road, Haystack in Tangerine by Violet Craft for Michael Miller
5) Bloom Modern by Jason Yenter from In The Beginning Fabrics
Next week, I will be showing you my latest purchase from Fabricworm…hint, hint 😉 I was building my yellow stash:
That is exactly what i need to do- build up a yellow stash. Mine is non-existant!
Hello, my name is jealousy, and I want to play with your fabric.
Loving all those yellows – I could really stand a new infusion of yellow into my stash too. Seems to be a hard colour to collect.
I know and its hard to get the right yellow….a lot of mustard or lemon but not so much bright yellow. I am hoping the fabrics in real life have some bright yellows too 🙂
Yeah, I think I’ve probably got mostly mustard and lemony shades too. I bought a FQ bundle of yellows from Fabricworm a while ago to top up my paltry pile of yellows and that’s mostly what they’d sent. (Not that there weren’t great prints, just somehow not the hues I was hoping for, exactly.)
Exactly how I feel 🙂
Thimble Pleasures is a good shop!
I love it too!! The coffee place next store is great too 🙂
Hmm, you LQS is great, mine is a bit rubbish, not much in the way of fun prints, loving the selections you made. And the yellow stash building, wow, it’s one of the colours I need to build in my stash too, good work! :o)
Prosperity chickens? Love them.
