Quilters Corner Visit

I had the fortune of visiting this store on Labor Day weekend, 2008. I had found the store, not through Quilt Sampler, but through the Central Virginia Tour De Quilt website. When I got to the store, I went about my search for fabrics to complete a new project. In my journey around the shop, I passed the front counter, and squealed with delight when I found the Quilt Sampler magazine. It went into my 'to purchase' pile. I continued around the store, finding more and more things to purchase. As I was getting ready to check out, I saw a framed copy of Quilt Sampler hanging behind the register. I asked, "Oh, are you in Quilt Sampler?" They chuckled and said, "We're not just IN it, we have the cover quilt!" And there, beside the framed Quilt Sampler, hanging on the wall, was the cover quilt. (I was a little bit embarrassed for not seeing it, but ... they laughed with me about missing the bright red (and white) quilt on the wall. I was just on sensory overload. ;)

Leaving the store, I made sure to stop by Kathleen's Fudge Shop (just a couple doors down). I was like a kid in a candy store ... (wonder why!). She had yummy homemade fudge, and some 'oldies but goodies'. It was hard to leave the store without spending nearly as much as I had on my fabric.

Delightful visit to both stores. Definitely a "must visit." 3  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?
