Favorite not-so-local quilt shop

I've told you before about my friend Pat's fabulous quilt store Life's A Stitch in Janesville, Wisconsin. I took pictures this trip so you could get an idea why I love it so much. From the moment you drive up, you are enveloped in beauty. Her flowers are gorgeous and she has both the outsider and inside done beautifully. Her shop is housed in a house that's over 100 yrs old! 




And now for the inside:

This fruit basket was sent by our friend Sandy Vanek who recently moved away. It was yummy!!



All the samples and kits are so inspiring!! Do drop in if you are nearby! I understand there is a Wisconsin Shop Hop going on now and of course I had to buy some Wisconsin fabric!!
