I've owned my quilt shop since 1990, specializing in antique reproduction fabrics. Made my first quilt in 1976 which greatly reduced my sewing of clothing! Would like to find more time to SEW.......maybe when I retire? Am married to a farmer, have 3 children and 4 grandchildren who are the light of my life!!! And now there are 3 great-grandchildren and another due in January 2019!

Chickadee Quilt Show Bridgton, Maine
Photos of my booth at the quilt show this past weekend. Lots of Jo Morton quilts as well as a trunk show from Annemarie Yohnk of "Quilts Remembered"....aren't they just darling? See the little wood crates on the tables in the first photo........I bring hundreds of 1/2 yard cuts, baskets of fat quarters, and crates of books to tempt quilters....not much for gadgets tho!
Cyndi Thankyou so much for a closeup of all those gorgeous photos. Your Stand looks Fabulous. Sure wish I could have been there to run my fingers through all that gorgeous fabric.
Great booth! I would have spent lots of time and $$ there. I can apprciate how much work it is to prepare, transport and set it up - well done. Wishing you much success!
Oh, looks so pretty! I thought of you when I was on vacation the last week. I went up to Vermont and New York to see my daughter and grandbabies. Gorgeous evenings, cool and pleasant. I'm no longer blogging, but my email address is: cumberlandquiltchick@yahoo.com
WOW, I would love to visit your booth, gosh your quilts look wonderful, I would have spent all my money....on fabric and patterns..thats for sure! I live in NE Fl. where quilters are more into bold and bright batiks than charming vintage reproductions of days gone by...Thanks Wendy
Your space is beautiful.Look at all those gorgeous creations. Wish I could do this.
Would you be so kind to (& tell your friends) comment on my BLOG ONLY (emails don’t count), for the Miracle Makeover fund drive. Charlie, 8 yr. old, & his story are fabulous. Every comment brings us a $1 for the next person that will be sponsored.
Have a beautiful weekend. Hugs, TTFN ~ Marydon blushingrosetoo.blogspot.com
