Big Bear

Hi there!

I have been in Big Bear this week.

It is absolutely beautiful up here.

Of course there is a quilt store,

and yes, I have been there (5 times so far).

It is a lovely store,

and the people there are wonderful.

Cute displays...

Nice and clean...

Of course I made fast friends with Karen, the owner.

I chatted with her about Bear Fabric

from Exclusively Quilters.

I shared some other patterns and ended up using a fabric line she had in the store to create a quilt for her from a pattern I have already been working on.

The pattern for her store is called:

Autumn in Big Bear Lake

I took fabric back to the condo with me and whipped up this top

(for a commission, of course).

She also suggested that I move up here and work for her,

I don't think Dawna and Fay at Bolts are gonna like that idea at all!

I was also visiting a scrap-booking store in town

and came across this display and just had to share it.

It was adorable,

but I think someone rearranged a couple of letters.

We laughed and enjoyed it.

Just one more photo to share for today,

someone snapped a pic of me wondering the condo with stitchwork in my hands.

 

Tell me,

do you think I am addicted?
