Sew 'n Tell of the meeting and our Shop Hop Trip
On August 12th several member and guests took a bus trip to several Quilt Shops in Michigan and one in Ohio. A good time and much shopping was had by all.
The first stop was Lake St. Mercantile in South Lyon Michigan, They were a featured shop in the Better Homes and Gardens Quilt Sampler in 2008.
The Second shop was The Stitchery located in Howell Michigan. They are a Janome Dealer and half of the shop had machines while the other half had fabric, patterns, and everything else.
