I love the word 'emporium', older shops had something we just don't get in our retail experience anymore, it was a different world when I was shopping with my Mum as a little girl in the 60's - mind you I wouldn't necessarily want to go back to that time either! I think the thing that made me laugh about those spectacular shoes was that they were in the leisurewear section - nothing leisurely about them! Your clam quilt is really getting out and about, it must be difficult to send one of your quilts off into the greater beyond, do you worry about it coming back safely? I sent a quilt to the UK to my niece but only in my brother's luggage. Not sure I could trust it to the mail!Soolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04703155392258429098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5775865396645690199.post-40492440005668134242015-09-18T07:09:40.694+10:002015-09-18T07:09:40.694+10:00Your star is gorgeous!

I didn't understand how it was part of a quilt because it looks like it's bound but then I clicked on the pattern and see maybe there are lots of finished pieces appliquéd on? It sure looks pretty! Love the kangaroo on the bike. That bike looks like something out of American Pickers!✾Jamie Lee Cooley✾https://www.blogger.com/profile/07208832897656210176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5775865396645690199.post-82332261317928480082015-09-18T06:17:05.657+10:002015-09-18T06:17:05.657+10:00Oh, those dots!!!!

I had a quick look at all the others on the website you linked to. This is going to be amazing when they are together.<br />So exciting to see the magazines out and about. And I do wish My timing was better - we were in Philadelphia 6 weeks ago. It would have been fun to see your quilt there.<br />Glad you had a good break away.

I haven't been doing much sewing. We are off travelling on Saturday. This year we are heading out to Broken Hill. I am looking forward to seeing the outback. I saw you were on Instagram. Its the platform for me at the moment. I do a photo-a-day prompt thing plus other photos. Its not too time intensive for me and I do love photos and seeing glimpses of other peoples lives.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04299378413584319405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5775865396645690199.post-76782228859169554192015-09-17T18:00:05.504+10:002015-09-17T18:00:05.504+10:00That is just a stunning star block!!

Love the sunset, the kangaroo cut-out and the shop name. How was the wine?<br /><br />How cool it must be to see your quilt on the rack in the bookstore! I'd love to find the magazine around here but I live too far out in the boonies. Wish I could get to Calif. to see your happy clam quilt, but it doesn't seem to be in the cards.<br /><br />Love your TATW! I need to get back to mine too - it's all dots, and not as far along as yours. Maybe in late October? Good luck on yours. It hopefully shouldn't take you too long, those blocks are pretty fast to do.
