“Stay at Home and Hop” coming your way

Fellow Quilters,

Well, it has been many moons since we chatted, and I have so much to share with you.  I hope to be doing just that over the next 10 days as I participate in a quilt designer blog hop – the Stay at Home and Hop event.

#stayathomeandhop

Our lives have been turned upside down the past few weeks as Covid-19 has spread worldwide with lightening speed.  Quilting events everywhere have been cancelled – both of my local guilds have cancelled their upcoming meetings and workshops until further notice.  What to do?  Quilters are a resourceful group and have taken to the world wide web for their quilty fix.

Enter the Stay at Home and Hop virtual quilt tour of 40 talented designers sharing their tips, new stuff and maybe a few free goodies along the way.  The Hop runs from March 21 – 31 with links to new designers’ sites every 3 days and promises to be a great diversion while we hunker down in the safety of our sewing space.  In my blog posts I will be sharing stuff I’ve done lately (newsy things), a favorite recipe that is easy to make and tastes great (since restaurant dining is not an option – I will even include one or two gluten-free recipes for Pat K and Pat T.  Full disclosure: I like cooking almost as much as quilting and am quite good at it), a quilting tip, and a chance for some free stuff.  Free stuff is the best!

I invite you to come along with me to find a few new-to-us designers, some great ideas, some new gourmet recipes and lots of inspiration.  I’ll be looking for comments and feedback for the free stuff so don’t be shy.  The comments make me feel like you’re right there in the seat beside me on this adventure.  You are my virtual quilting peeps!  Let’s do this together!!

See you tomorrow,

Cheers,

Patti
