I’m kind of a mess, so yesterday it was a blessing to be surrounded by friends, and many whom I consider family at The Seattle Modern Quilt Guild’s Holiday Sew-In at Island Quilter on Vashon Island.
Island Quilter’s bright and large space accommodated our large group.
It was Merry Christmas to us, because Anja and Paul opened up what they call “The Vault.” Which meant there were loads of out of print fabrics for us to purchase! I went home with some Lizzy House Pearl Bracelet.
Working on gifts was of course high on the agenda and I heard between the mimosa’s and cookies that some made it a highly productive day.
I managed some infinity scarves and an apron. I love the pharmacy on the island too for gifts and picked up some awesome stocking stuffers.
A little show and tell of our newest baby quilt.
Thanks to all who made it a great time! You are all sunshine on a cloudy day and I really needed it.

Sigh, I just found your blog through the flickr board for the Seattle Modern Quilt guild, I kinda wish I hadn’t because now I know Vashon Island is keeping some of my most wanted fabric somewhere on it. 😉
