While in Michigan, I visited few participating Row-by-Row quilt shops.
The first is Attic Window Quilt Shop in Comstock Park. This was a lovely shop with quite a good selection of Civil War & 30s/40s fabric. And the modern row at the top lead me to my next stop…
Stitched Studio in Grand Rapids is new Modern Quilt Shop that opened early this summer. Such a wonderful bright and airy place with fresh mod fabric! It would not be hard not to spend all my time and money here. Plus, I loved that their RbR kit was offered in traditional and modern fabrics.
My third stop is Smith-Owen Sewing & Quilting on Plainfield. This place was a great find in that they service machines, sell fabric and have a large workroom for classes. Chatting with the fellow behind the counter, I found out that they had run completely out of kits for their winter-themed RbR with the AQS show over the weekend. Luckily, there was fabric left.
This was quite fun and I’ll have to pay more attention next summer. Besides the RbR kits, I picked up some new fabric for my growing Stash! I’m eyeing several of those fabrics for family pillowcase gifts this Christmas. Best of all, I stumbled upon those two citron/blue fabrics from my June ‘One Block Wonder’ entry. Now I’ll have to decide what to make.
