It goes without saying that my favorite part of the week was our little trip to Duluth.
One of the local quilt shops is closing, which is not a favorite part. The owner wants to retire and since she’s just had her 70th birthday its understandable. Its sad as this is the shop I have been visiting most of my quilting career and I have many memories of shopping with my little ones there (well they aren’t so little anymore) When I walked into the shop this week there sat a sewing machine that I’ve always loved and thought it would look sweet at my house…..well there it sat with a price tag of $30. so I have officially started celebrating my birthday month with my first gift to myself.
its not exactly in mint condition but it will be a memento for me from Patchworks.
I managed to quilt a customer quilt this week, I still have to bind it.
and Mary brought her little kitty for a visit last night, kitties sure grow fast
I’m thinking he must be about 2yrs in people years. can you guess why?
He is such a fun little guy
I’m still planning to stay pet free, but I do enjoy his visits.

A sweet sewing machine, absolutely a “two year old” kitten and sad to see a long time quilt shop owner close her doors. Any chance of a reopening?
