It's a bittersweet feeling ladies!
The building our shoppe has been housed in for the last 5 years has sold.
We are glad to have found a buyer...
but there truly are soooo many sweet memories
these walls hold!
I thought I'd share some photos with you
of our shoppe just in case
you never were able to stop in.

Thanks to all of our customers who supported us while we were open.
We are still on the road traveling all over the country to
Quilt Shows here in the US.
So come and see us!
Check us out on our website too!

Congratulations as you celebrate a good thing - you'll always have your memories. :-)
ReplyDeleteThis post just prompted me to go and visit your website (don't know why I haven't before)where I read you 'About' page. WOW - what a life you've had!! It gives me more of an insight as to how you must be feeling at this time. One thing I can see though is that you have been truly blessed in finding your Guitar Man!!
