My daughter lives there so we like to stop in the shop when we go to visit her family. It's a lovely store and the staff is very helpful. <br />I attended your trunk show at the Grand Theatre in Grand Island, Ne. It was fun to see your quilts and hear their stories! Thanks for coming to Nebraska!Kaye Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10944451005827872762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-16787411883801221552018-10-22T12:31:23.627-04:002018-10-22T12:31:23.627-04:00I would love to see a picture of the IKEA tables. ...I would love to see a picture of the IKEA tables.

I lived on the west coast in a large city for 30 years, and it was great moving back to the midwest. Any day that I feel a bit down, all I have to do is go visit Chris's quilt shop, buy some fabric, good conversation, and walk out happy. Thanks for coming to Nebraska. I was planning on attending one of your workshops but my shoulder surgery had to be done. Please come back again.<br /><br />PS I hope you enjoyed all four season,(yes with 2 inches of snow) during your stay.Sjrrnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06994510292548166948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-74383194310543507082018-10-22T10:22:50.662-04:002018-10-22T10:22:50.662-04:00Your post today really hit home.

They moved to CA shortly after they were married and hardly ever returned to NE but it still seems like part of me. Mom passed on her love of sewing to me. Thank you for the photos. I love that town. :) elincphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06329909918312702596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-27579481209175080572018-10-22T09:32:50.863-04:002018-10-22T09:32:50.863-04:00Saturday's "wind day" stripped what ...Saturday's "wind day" stripped what would have been our "Fall Colors" for our area (extreme S.E. MN). 45 mph pushed all our leaves into the valley behind us! I totally agree with your thoughts on the "friendly, small(er) quilt shop" thought. I've been to the others you 'mentioned' and really don't care to return.<br />Interesting how our dependence on 'power' is fully realized in its absence!!!Doreenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13046337201611727831noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-23620305305133215032018-10-22T02:23:28.099-04:002018-10-22T02:23:28.099-04:00What a fabulous fabric shop, I wish we had such a ...What a fabulous fabric shop, I wish we had such a good one here.<br />I remember a a child my dad always war those overalls for work he’s a plasterer by trade, and he wore sailcloth trouser under, he has never owned a pair of jeans, and even now at 82 he prefers to wear corduroy trousers and carry’s 2 bunches of keys, in case he looses one! Lol the hours we spent as kids looking for his keys happy memories.<br /><br />Quilty hugs xxxxAnne Haywardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11938368580671004796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-69821931469754334732018-10-21T23:53:28.635-04:002018-10-21T23:53:28.635-04:00Grew up in and around Blair, NE.
