Thimble Pleasures Quilt Show

Yesterday My mom and I went to the

Thimble Pleasures Quilt Show in Upton Ma

Very nice show!

Here are five of my absolute favorites

in no particular order!

All the photos were taken with my iPhone

first time for doing this1

and I'm pretty pleased with the results.

AND this time I remembered to take a photo

of the quilt tag with all the quilt info!

"It's Raining Circles"

by Debbie Wendt

Love the way the circles of fabric and stitching 

bounce around between the fabric strips!

"Shadows of a Rainbow"

by Michelle Coppolino

Really like how Michelle used 5" charms from a charm swap

surrounding them in shades of grey and created

a color gradation.

(Think I'll have to put this on my Quilty Bucket list!)

"2013 Row Robin"

by Sherri Noel

Love the funky images,

and really love the grey!

Favorite part is the orange dandelion!

"Doodle Sea Turtle"

by Linda Ramrath

Linda started with the outline and then 

started doodling her favorite doodle patterns.

The coral was made from an old necklace!

the pattern is available at:

"Scrap Happy Sampler - Block of the Month"

by Sherri Noel

This quilt just made me smile!

Love the funky blocks and bright colors!

unfortunately my camera wasn't focused so sadly 

can't say where the BOM pattern came from.

After browsing through all the quilts

mom and I had a quick sandwich..

snapped a pic of mom laughing!

and then we visited

Distinctively Sweden
in North Attleboro

and picked up a couple of Ekelund Linens
made in Sweden!

A nice Ocean Sea Scape linen,
a way cute ocean theme wash cloth,
and a black and orange linen that will look great
on the dining room table at Halloween time!

Just love these linens!
The gals at the shop are so nice and helpful,
a pleasure to shop there!


Then, onto one of my mom's favorite places…

Briggs Home and Garden Center
it is a wonderful place to go year round for
houseplants, out side plants, gardening inspiration
and they have a nice little area for tea and desserts!
we each picked up cute little plants

Mine has found a home in my sewing room…
which has been under another
reorganization!
But that's for another time!

It was a fun filled jam packed day!
