I received an email from a wonderful quilter last night, who has taken several of my classes.

Go check out the link!!!  I tried to copy and paste the picture, but it won't copy.

So, here's the spoiler... this was the finale of our Shop Hop...MISSOURI STAR QUILT COMPANY!!!!  And it was AMAZING!!!!  Let me tell you just how AMAZING...

Every quilt shop I've ever been in is ONE store/shop...right?  You too?
NOT Missouri Star Quilt Company...they have 6!!!  Thanks right, 6!!!  Each store is it's own location, name, and specialty.

The MAIN store...right?


The sign on the side of the window


Inside this store is HUGE!  All the prints are in this store.  
I really just wanted to get 1/2 yard of everything!
There was SO much fabric...I was like a kid in a candy store!!!


The other side of the store...Can you see how deep it is?!
Now, let me tell you a little about their buying power...LOL!  
They don't buy one bolt of fabric at a time, the buy 3 or 4!!! 
That's my kinda quilt shop!!!


This is the SOLIDS shop!  
YES, a whole shop dedicated to solids, tone on tone, and a few other fun fabrics.
None of these stores were small....can you tell?


Displays were gorgeous, fun, and made you want them...spot on!!!
Isn't that what displays are supposed to do?


Cute cup!


The seasonal shop...and batik shop next door.


Kids print store


I think this was the reproduction shop, civil war, 30's and such...


A cute little court yard restaurant nest to the main Missouri Star shop...
Isn't it nice?


Lisa Ernewein and myself in front of the shop!


A beautiful sunset to finish off the FABULOUS day!!!




Now, Ladies and gentlemen...

If you ever get the chance to go to Missouri Star Quilt Company in person, let me give you one piece of advise...
Plan to stay there ALL day!!!
Want to guess how much time we had?
ONE HOUR!!!
That's right...1... uno...ONE!!!
We barely made it into the solid shop, our second shop to go into!!!
But we had so much fun!!!
This is DEFINITELY a quilt shop destination!!!!

Be creative today!

Nina
