More Beetle Bop 2011



Day 2
Our first stop after some caffeine loading...

No words are necessary! I do believe that fabric was purchased.

We the went across the street and around the corner to what we affectionately call "Moda Land". If it's Moda and you want it, this is the place! They have some other fabric too, but being the lover of all things Moda that I am, this is the Mecca!

See those fabrics in the picture. Lauren treated herself to some of the Christmas fabric in front

 and I treated myself to a lot of the fabric in the back.

Finished quilts will be posted soon, I'm sure!

Following our day of fabric shopping we managed to squeeze in some eating and some sewing.

We slept peacefully that night with visions of new quilts dancing in our heads!

First Annual Beetle Bop 2011

Lauren,
I had so much fun with you on my recent visit. Hopefully we can keep this Beetle Bop going. This post is picture heavy but how else can you revisit all the good times?

Day One
It all started Monday afternoon once I got there and after I grabbed a quick bite to eat. The Bop was on!
First shop we visited..it had a lot to offer but we weren't quite ready to commit.

So we jumped into the Beetle and kept shopping bopping!

A while later we arrived in Waxhaw at The Quilting Nook.  Look there's a sale! Unfortunately for us, it was Monday so two of the places we would have liked to go were closed. One of which was the quilt store having a sale and the knitting shop. Thankfully, we did manage to find something to eat.

I have to say that Waxhaw is a charming town and I would love to go back on another day of the week!

.

Believe it or not, we managed to squeeze in one more stop. If I'm not mistaken, there may have been some fabric purchases made here.  QBee Quilts in Charlotte..it's a great shop with wonderful, knowledgeable ladies working there.

There was eating, there was drinking, there was quilt planning, there was a little Dancing With the Stars, there was sewing and I do believe that even Stella was worn out by the end of the night!
