NJ Shop Hop Adventure

Gail, Mad, Cat, and Patti along with a new quilting pal, Lois, completed the 2011 NJ Shop Hop. Kat wasn't able to hop this year.


Day 1 - We went to all the local shops

Haddonfield NJ

Burlington City NJ

Mt. Holly, NJ

Day 2 - Northern NJ

Vernon, NJ

Morris Plains, NJ

Clinton, NJ

Pennington, NJ

Patti won the daily prize from Aardvark and Mad both won the daily prize from Pieceful Choices on Thursday, day 2. They don't have them yet but we will post once they do.

Day 3 - The Shore and Southern NJ
Ocean City, NJ

Forked River, NJ

Mullica Hill, NJ

Swedesboro, NJ

Of course everyone added to their stash. Check out the loot:

Cat's stash

Gail's stash

Lois's stash

Mad's Stash

Patti's stash

Patti's charm packs.
Everyone has these. You collected a charm pack and a pattern at each of the 11 shops. You have enough squares to make a quilt top. Every shop had their quilt displayed.

Another great adventure by the Jersey Girl Quilters.

Cathy's Projects

Cathy has been busy sewing and quilting.
Here are some of the projects she has been working on:

A jacket for herself. She bought the fabric at The Village Quilter one day, sewed the jacket that night and wore it the next day.


A reversible dress for her granddaughter.

A quillow for her granddaughter.


"Spider web" quilt top finished. You may remember Cat and Mad took a class for this block last year.

A quilt top for a baby quilt that's going to be a gift.

And the label for the baby quilt.

Cat also completed the blocks for two separate blocks of the month she had been working on.

Go Cat!!
