Shop Hop

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to say that Gabby, Linda and I finished the Minnesota Shop Hop and we received our fabric stash - Gabby even had a bundle. I think he rather enjoyed giving all the women a hard time in the stores, and wouldn't you know it, the very last store we were in had military fabric which he purchased to make a bag to carry his information in to meetings. I need to get started on that sometime next week.

Also, today I was over to Mary's and she helped me to figure out how to make a pillow case. All I need to do now is finish the final seam and then Gabby will have 2 pillow cases for the deer cabin!

That's all for now.

I am so glad you guys got the SE section done and that Gabby enjoyed himself! I still have not gotten anything done this week, I did do some patching for Ryan last week.

Great job everyone!
Erick and I also finished our section - was a bit disappointed to learn no free fabric was in our future but rather a chance to win a new Berina Sewing Machine. Here's hoping - keep your fingers crossed. I could use a new one!
Erick is gone this weekend (8-12 to 8-14) so I am going to try my hand at making a new little bag (about pencil size) from a pattern we were given when we finished our section.

Now that we all have fabric, we should get together and do a sew day. What would be a good day? What does everyone want to make? Should we all work on the same thing or should we all make something different.
Kim, when do you plan on being in Rochester? or don't you know yet?

Most days are fine with me - I'm sure you want a Saturday, so just let me know.

It would have to be on a weekend for me too. I have alot of UFO's and also want to make myself a new pair of jammies. We are now done with family reunions for the year. Are you thinking on getting together at your home Mary? Or is there somewhere else we could use?

I was hoping for the sunday/monday of labor day weekend but not sure if that will work out. Sounds like Gary will be in town and I'm not wanting to overload mom and dad.
