A Visit to Pioneer Quilts

We arrived in Portland around 3pm and after setting up ‘we’ had time to go to ONE quilt shop…so of course I picked ‘Pioneer Quilts’ and as usual it didn’t disappoint!! 

Upon entering this shop my heart always skips a few beats!  So much to look at!  So much to touch…and so much to take pictures of!  They are so good about letting anyone take pictures!
SEW…pour yourself a coffee…and put your feet up!

Yup…that’s my reflection…and I am in long pants!  It’s only 11C and looks like I have that cooler, rainy day!

I don’t have time to dilly dally this morning as we have a ferry to catch…so you are on your own…ENJOY!

Did you see anything that you wanted to stitch?  I know I sure did!  This was just a snippet of what was inside this shop…You’ll have to wait for the rest of the pictures tomorrow!!  Got to run…

Have a wonderful Wednesday and Happy Stitching!

  12. Pioneer quilts is one of my favourite shops in the Portland area. We usually stay in the hotel just across the parking lot to make things convenient. In fact that is how I found the quilt shop the first time. They are so lovely, kind and helpful.

    Hope the crossing isn't too rough today but it will be great to sleep in your own bed tonight.

  16. The wool used in the tulips is so pretty. Gives a more realistic look to the flowers.
