So, I thought I'd give you another tour!
As you enter the shoppe, this is the view you will have!As you see, it has filled in quite a bit from our first pictures taken May 1, our opening day.
If you were to turn slightly to the right, you would be greeted by the "big sister", our newest addition.Stephen built the unit not too long ago. It is identical to the first one but much wider!
Yep, still with the oak from that one tree!
In the corner you will find our old washing tub!We've filled it with fabric care products! You'd be amazed at how pretty bubble wrap looks in a tub! lol
This old tub continues to be a conversation piece!
It seems to bring back lots of childhood memories! ;o)
Not far from the old tub and the Big Sister, is this comfortable rocking chair! It's a favourite place for tired quilters .... and husbands that have come along! ;o)The little hand embroidered pillow was made by my friend Wendy from Snippet of a Quilter. Our first sampler!
She also made a cute little cupcake pin cushion. If you look closely on the front counter, you will see it. My dd made one too! Wendy's is on the left! Oh... help yourself to some candy while you're checking out those cute pin cushions! Thanks again Wendy!
Now, turn to your left, and you will see another part of the shoppe. That's also where our classroom is (Sorry, no pictures).These shelves were empty when we first opened! My, how quickly they have begun to fill with batiks!
This is our little notion corner!I just love that little giraffe! What a lucky find that was!
Notice Cottage Garden? Yep, quilted and hanging in the store!
The Notion Hut is right there!I did want Stephen to make a thatch roof, but I guess I was asking for too much! lol
As you can see, we pretty much have the basic quilting necessity! It really is difficult to figure out what inventory you ought to have as a quilt shop!
If you were to lean against the batik wall, you'd be peaking into the main/entrance of the shoppe!The classroom is from the quilt on back!
Oh my, I forgot to mention our Needle Shack! I love that little shack!That's located in entrance/main room towards the back!
Well, I hope you've enjoyed the tour! I do hope that when you'll stop by, you'll feel quite at home!
Please, sit and rest a bit in that rocking chair ... it is quite comfy!
Thank you for your visit!

I always love to see pictures from the shoppe :) It is looking very comfy!
Oh it just looks so cozy *s* I have a child's rocker just like the one in the photo.
I am always impressed with what all you have done. Is business picking up now that the word is getting out?
Carole thanks for the lovely tour your husband is a true carpenter and your shoppe is filling up nicely with great fabrics. Just love your added touches to make it your own.
It's sooo cute Carole. I sure wish I could visit you. And shop of course. I'm so happy for you.
