PHOENIX AREA QUILT SHOP HOP

Friday 9/23 I accompanied Cindy to some of the shops on the Phoenix Quilt Shop Hop.
Our 1st stop was Bearly Stitchin in Goodyear.
It is a small store in the far west valley
They demonstrated a need new measuring square that has a groove in it that grips onto a seam when you are squaring up your blocks.

And as in all good activities there were treats.

Next we went to In Stitches, which was just around the corner, but in true Donohoo fashion, we saw much territory, before actually finding the store.
Their demo was on the tool that makes this quilt

This was another quilt they had on display that I thought was pretty.
Our last stop of the day was Quilter's Bee in Glendale.
This was one of the quilts in the window.
This was another one from the window.

This is a picture made from the only pattern I bought in our travels.
Our last stop has no pictures, we stopped at Hobby Lobby to try and get inspiration for family Christmas gifts. Nothing jumped out and inspired.
It was a fun afternoon, maybe I will do it again in the future.
