Yesterday I said that I was off to Portland’s Fabric Depot but I seem to have got side tracked… thanks to Synthia and Sally! Both of these ladies said that I just HAD to go to the Pioneer Quilt Shop..so what’s a quilter to do..but follow her Followers! And man, am I ever glad I did!!
I now have a NEW Favourite Quilt Shop!! I’m sure after you see my pictures you will agree…SEW pour yourself another coffee and get comfy!
Ok..this is good! I always love it when there is a welcoming quilt at the front door…even if it is raining out!
This quilt was hanging over the cash register..LOVE IT!!
Pan out..Here is a look at that wall..lots of woolie goodness!
To the left, this stunning applique quilt…
And at the table by the door!! Be still my heart! All this and I haven’t even closed the DOOR!!
Throughout the shop there are little surprise displays..like this one!
And did I mention WOOLIE GOODNESS? Yup…thought so…well I will be mentioning THAT a lot! This shop is full of wool, wool patterns and wool displays!
Oh…and tons of Civil War fabrics, patterns and books!!
Tons of stuff that is new to me…and probably to you too!
Just LOOK at all the wool…by the bolt and by the piece..and tons of hand dyed wool as well!
Yes, JAM fever has struck this shop!
And Sue Spargo has been and left her mark!
Primitive Gatherings is here..just look at this itty-bitty little quilt!
And this beauty…the detail took my breath away!!
And of course Maggie B. was here…LOVE her work!
Sprinkled with CW quilts!!
AND THEN throw in Bonnie Sullivan (All Through the Night)..IT’S ‘STARRY NIGHT’!! I ordered this one from Bonnie a few years back…and here it is!! I even have the fabric to make it…somewhere in my sewing room back home…!!! AND I still love it!! How could I not?! It’s stunning!!
Whew!! Well, we made it part way down the shop..and I don’t want to blow up the RV Park’s Wifi when I post!! Part TWO tomorrow.. I sure hope you don’t mind…! :)
Have a wonderful Wednesday and Happy Quilting!~P

I hope you found time to go to the Fabric Depot yet today. I know you are more into the wool stuff but the first time I walked into the Fabric Depot my jaw just dropped. Every fabric company and every beautiful piece of fabric you could ever imagine. I just love that place and get there as often as I can. I will have to go to Primitive quilts one of these days too.
ReplyDeletegood thing you listened...this is one of my favorite shops!
ReplyDeleteNow you see why I thought you should stop at this shop back when you came through Portland...I knew you'd love it!!! It is fun.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a wonderful place - love those squirrels! Did you pack up the whole store and take it with you? *G*
