Patchworks Plus

On Tuesday I had the pleasure of attending the Grand Opening of Patchworks Plus. (For those who are wondering I tacked a weeks leave onto the upcoming school holidays .. I wasn't wagging!)


Sarah has been running a successful online store for a number of years and recently decided to open a 'bricks and mortar' shop.



This beautiful quilt, Dilly Dally, hangs beside the counter                      ... love all the Marmalade fabrics.






                                    Sarah has kits, ...




                                         fabrics ...




                                          and lots ...




                                           and lots ...




                                        of patterns.

.


 
There are many lovely samples scattered around the shop ...



                       
and a very pretty Tilda section.







 Patchworks Plus is located at 14 Anne St, Georgetown, Tasmania. Sarah also offers a machine quilting service.

Now of course I didn't come away empty handed, splurging on some Fig Tree ...



 and Thimble Blossoms patterns.




Regular readers would be aware it's been a while since my last post. Thanks to those who emailed wondering if I was okay. Apart from a few personal issues, I have been super busy work wise and had little time or energy to sew or blog.This week I have started a new quilt ... pictures coming soon. Bye.
